Writing[]

Roddy Lumsden: "‘Patrick Brandon’s poems are strangely confident and confidently strange. They appear to act as a mediation between tension and compassion, between the thrilling unease of real places and the nagging familiarity of invented ones. Quotidian subjects – cameras, canals, campsites – emerge scrambled and refocussed in this energetic and rewarding debut collection."[2]
