Amazon Review

"This is an astonishing piece of work. In today's mumbling, dumbed-down world an author that actually has competent command of the language! Amazing... [The Morphine Fawn is the] First book I have sampled in a very long time that is worth the price. Bravo!" Peter F Walsh, Amazon Review, 5 Stars
Behold my current oeuvre. I think you’ll find these books to be lyrical, questionable and almost possibly non-mutagenic! For those with nut sensitivities, however, please read these books with the covers closed.

The Purgatory Elm (2018)

Goodreads Giveaway Review

It only took me a couple of poems to feel the flow and pattern of the Fiasco Galante's genius. You truly get a sense of his bond with literature in the beauty of his writing. His poems stretch the mind of the reader; many a time I learned a new word or phrase. His rhyming schemes are clever and fast-paced and definitely humorous. I thoroughly enjoyed "I Would Be Lovely Then a Quick Reply," which I found quite facetious and a nice surprise amidst the rest of the poems. [He} surely has his unique style and is not afraid of showing it off. ~Tatiana

As we look to faith and our thoughts, what comes out may be beauty. The Encolpia is a collection of poetry from William Frank as he explores poetic tradition by bending and warping it in his own way to create an original message. The Encolpia is poetry worth thinking about, recommended." ~ Carl Logan
Yuneko
For those of us lucky enough to go to Purgatory, where human nature is elemental, unbridled and grotesque, here's the book of the unlucky ones who happen to be with us. (340 pages)

“Frank’s novel has the grotesquerie of a Tim Burton movie, the droll corruption of a Mark Twain story (camouflaged by pompous oratory), and the cheerful brutality of a Punch and Judy show...The result is an inventive, mordantly funny story with a blighted but yearning soul.” --Kirkus Reviews The Grave Listeners

BookBag UK Review

The Grave Listeners is a short tale of the unexpected, rooted in human nature and its existential preoccupations with the supernatural. It's written by an author confident in his style, able to evoke time and place with an elegant turn of phrase and not afraid to puncture the tension with some robust humour.” — Jill Murphy
