Showing Cheltenham by Adam Fieled

O this is fierce writing, dirty & sweaty, rain-drenched& squalid, caught out in the back seats of parked cars, all that mess of actual young lives – Adam Fieled’s poetry moves with & through all this, carefully recording and arranging, natural history notes of the actual ecosystem so many of us live or lived within, savage, implacable and there on its own terms.

—Peter Philpott
