DADHEAD
Meals shared, dishes washed, errands run, and worried thoughts cast toward an uncertain future in this collection. The seeds are sown in haste- bashed out in quick sprints and collated by bloodshot eyes after a fussy toddler’s bedtime. The result is an oblique ‘how to’ guide for poets who parent in tandem.
Dave Wood layers - line over line - affection for his child, nostalgia for his past, respect for his child’s mother, throughout this work. It’s the least problematic portrait of a modern, chronically grim, northern European dad that one could really hope for.
