OverviewThe Ghost of Franz Kafka is the ninth collection of poetry from Folkestone-based Patric Cunnane. He also writes short stories and plays. Kafka was a socialist and many of these poems adopt a progressive viewpoint while nodding to the alienation in Kafka's world. Speaking out against injustice tells us the 'ghost' is very much alive. There is light amongst the darkness. Sappho's home, Lesvos, long an inspiration to poets, appears alongside eulogies to the author's Irish roots. Elsewhere, poets, artists and first love are celebrated together with postcards, watermelons, honeymoons and windmills. And if you ever need to explain poetry to a cab driver, look no further.
