The Deadwing Generation is a second stand-out collection from Simon French. Perceptive and emotionally raw, French applies his poetry scalpel to the experience of living life in the modern world.

Praise for Joyriding Down Utopia Avenue from Amazon readers:

"Powerful, surprising - shocking, sometimes funny, often poignant but always thought provoking."

"surprising, subtle poetry"

"This is a stunning collection. Assured throughout, this is a poet who is a master of his game. The poems conjure a vividly imagined world, often skewering convention."
