Zombie Threads Isabel and the Burning Boy Letters to George When the Darkness Lets you Down “Mills’ poetry runs wild with his obsession with the minutiae of human life, observation and lost love. His love for Sylvia Plath and the French masters is evident throughout...Often humorous, but also poignant - his style is reaching an annihilating maturity and a sense of dynamism. Graphic, sensual and vivid, the poetry is gripping and addictive. ... His own understanding of the world has been injected with bullying, feelings of inferiority and non-belonging (with constant references to a ‘traveller’). The language travels us to the most personal experiences of awakening and pain, as well as discovery and mischief." Dr George Rodosthenous, Associate Professor in Theatre Directing, University Leeds.
