Reviews
"I'm opting for Frederick Seidel's Peaches Goes It Alone [as New Statesman Book of the Year], with its gerontian lucidity and juvenile senility, its outrageousness, inventiveness and radical indifference to the idea of causing offence." - Geoff Dyer, New Statesman Books of the Year
'The divisive bad-good poet, whose terrible-beautiful rhymes and offensive-tender sentiments will have you levitating one minute and on the floor with horror the next. I don't smile often in these strange and anxious times, except when I read any poem by Seidel.' - Kathryn Maris, New Statesman Books of the Year
