Some comments on Seán Street’s collections of poems have included the following:

A Walk in Winter (Enitharmon Press)

His work grows out of a tradition that includes Thomas Hardy, Edward Thomas and the Prose of Richard Jefferies. In his poems it is still bearing fruit that is at once extremely refreshing and extremely English.
Charles Tomlinson

The emotion is in the perception of places and things, the sharp ‘mundane detail’; the reader is allowed to see with the poet.
Jeremy Hooker

This True Making (KQBX Press)

He is in the great tradition of Hardy, Thomas and Larkin, and he uses their skills and taut control of word and line and image.
James Gibson

One of Street’s greatest poetic strengths is the way that he can evoke joy and terror with an hallucinogenic clarity. Brian Hinton

Radio and Other Poems (Rockingham Press)

Seán Street is one of the best contemporary poets of the English landscape, but not an over-reverential one. Christopher Somerville, The Daily Telegraph

Outstanding; evocative, wryly funny .
Richard Mabey

He has a great ear and a great sense of the world as parable and echo chamber.
Piers Plowright
