Praise for “Hooligans" by Katrina Naomi

A very nice review in the new issue of Lunar Poetry of Katrina Naomi’s pamphlet Hooligans by Gram Joel Davies


Hooligans is a timely book, hopefully a timeless one. A small collection which distils everyday heroism to a courageous liquor. While today, celebrity speakers chauvinistically urge us to spurn our voting rights, voices raised from the past still mock, argue, insist – and refuse to be quieted. Thanks to Naomi’s work, names which have become museum pieces are made personal again, their dismissal as unconscionable now as ever before.
Well-deserved, we say. It can be ordered online here.
