“a good little chapbook”
(Peter Philpott)
“Brilliant”
(Jules Maaten, MEP, referring to the cover poem)
“Dylan Harris’s new book Europe, in an admirably citizenly yet
collequial vein, pulls out all the unarticulated stops of any so–called
‘Union’, to represent a re–marking of his personal map.
A kind of unstoppable train wreck from any British perspective. But from a
European one, a daring literary feat. One in which ‘accelerating is
language English’ and ‘social life glows momentarily / on
winter Sunday evenings / in the pub quiz league.’ ”
(Stephen Rodefer)
“New words here, and old words anew; syntax, also. Memorable lines
here, and memorable form: poetry, from memory to Dylan Harris to you.”
(Jeff Harrison)

“First impressions suggest
I could be a contender
for intimacy…
from ‘Portrait of the Artist’
These provocative opening lines begin a controlled explosion of
twelve poems that reveal inner prepossessions and fiery confrontations to
self, and country. They are charged with desire and a powerful will, in
denial of pessimism and challenging ideas of how we feel about ourselves,
with an instinctive sense of brooding irony.
There is so much to be said for a chapbook that’s as readable as an
upcoming full collection. Chapbooks are real grassroots volumes for poetry
lovers and Round the Clock proves we should all be indulging in more of them.”
