Review
"Anyone who may have casually dismissed homeless people as being parasites should read what Seamus has written. It is insightful, moving and compelling. The writer has the gift of language and is able to put into verse many of the feelings and aspirations of many."
- Terry Waite CBE, President of Emmaus UK
"I was able to peer into the lives of so many different people, and that what I was reading are true experiences of people who have lived through the horrors of having nowhere to go. This is what made this collection so hard to read, but also what made me keep on reading [...] This collection taught me that all that matters is that we, as human beings, look after each other."
Jemma O'Donovan
