POETRY MONTH: reviews of scott manley hadley

with a month of reviews heating up, it’s only fair to point the camera at a mirror and expose the hideousness of the self.

As yet, I’m not aware of any reviews of my latest – and imo best – book, hip-hop-o-crit, so please reach out if you’d like a review copy of that or any of the others. As I’ve said elsewhere, I’m currently unemployed, so I’m not going to be sending any out immediately, but as soon as I have a smidge of disposable income, I will be spendin’ spendin’ spendin’ again.

Here are a selection of reviews of my writing:
