Pigeon Songs

Eoghan Walls’ Pigeon Songs is a gorgeous second collection of poems: richly detailed, densely metaphorical, steeped in themes of love and loss. The pigeon as a totem animal rings true, suggesting both a down-to-earth physicality along with an ability to astonish, to take flight. Formally adept, vividly evocative, Pigeon Songs rewards re-reading.
