While the first part of the book comprises a series of musically oriented poems about relationships and loss, the second part concerns itself with an extended dialogue between Henry David Thoreau and Theodore Kaczynski, the Unabomber. Catastrophic Chords intends to appeal to the reader’s sense of duality and paradox.

Intimate and daring, the poems in Patrick Chapman’s remarkable third collection explore with often searing clarity the naked spaces of love, sex and death. Startling, original, sometimes quietly devastating, this is the finest work to date from a writer hailed as `one of the very best modern Irish poets.’

In Daily Accord presents a selection of short poems written on a daily basis over a twenty-month period. Loosely based on Haiku and Senryu forms they are instanter reductions of Golden’s quotidian reality. A variety of voices, and echoes from the greater world, move with the narrator through the months. The tension lies not in the drama of what is unfolded but in the obliquely configured lines of a charted life and the quizzical insights that are brought forth.
