Angel Kagoule review - The Face

By: Carphology Collective  On: Sun 11 of Dec, 2005 21:37 GMT 
Angel Kagoule
"Sweetly packaged collection of short stories and poems that combines an experimental (but endearing) writing style with gratuitous references to Butlins, Ben Sherman shirts, fruit machines and milk monitors ...file next to St. Etienne."
The Face, 09/93

Angel Kagoule review - The List

By: Carphology Collective  On: Sun 02 of Oct, 2005 21:19 BST

"Surreal imagery abounds in this slim yet densely packed volume: cattle falling from the sky, reanimated joggers, sinister maternity homes... Interesting and emotionally potent."

Angel Kagoule review - City Life

By: Carphology Collective  On: Sat 01 of Oct, 2005 21:26 BST 
Angel Kagoule
"A similar hypersensitive invention to J.D. Salinger or Kurt Vonnegut... highly bizarre but utterly fascinating. This is an absorbing and rewarding book by a major new talent."
City Life, 10/93

Angel Kagoule review - Foreword

By: Carphology Collective  On: Sat 01 of Oct, 2005 21:23 BST 
Angel Kagoule
"Some genuine imagery, a lovely spare use of language... genuine compressed emotion in the poems and crisp observation in the stories... permeated with that particular vividness found in the quality of dreams."
Foreword, 10/93

"If you like bizarre imagery, incurable romanticism and surreal scenarios, then you should love this book — it's rather like D.F. Lewis without the horror and dark fantasy."

"... delightfully intriguing and immensely satisfying collection of offbeat poems and tiny stories... pure joy from beginning to end... unreservedly recommended as a compulsory read."
