Deb Matthews-Zott wrote of Sharkey's previous book: 'The Sweeping Plain
dismantles the architecture and reconstructs the minutiae and epiphanies of
contemporary life with a lyrical wit.'
Geoff Page has remarked on Sharkey's Swift-like satire, and Martin Duwell has
declared, 'Almost nothing in Michael Sharkey's previous work... prepares us for
the shock of how good, how sheerly enjoyable, The Sweeping Plain is.'
Another Fine Morning In Paradise, Sharkey's first collections since The Sweeping
Plain, recounts the droll customs of suburban and rural Cockaigne, the
existential states of earthly and other paradises, and re-imagines a poet's
fragmented Australia. Isolation, loss and heartbreak are never far from these
projections of the good life, in poems that characteristically celebrate
endurance with compassion, allusiveness and wit.
'Elegance in plain clothes, that's Michael Sharkey.' - Simon Patton in Island
