My Discovery Of. Kulvert Press, Bristol. (2025).
“As the winds of fascism and late-capitalist crisis sweep the US, what a deep comfort to see the country through Dan Eltringham’s perceptive eyes. I love these poems’ various singing, as they take in radiant particularities of deserts, mountains, lakes and rivers, landscapes shaped by waves of colonization and trade, the “hypervisible & invisible,” histories of revolt and histories of wildfire, moments when history might have been otherwise. These poems, full of grass and barbed wire, grain silos and anarchists, capture the beauty and tragedy of this settler-colonial project and the land that it has shaped, that shapes us in return. I’m grateful for the complexity and clarity of Dan’s vision, grateful he’s touched down here and brought back these accounts.”

Cairn Almanac. Hesterglock Press, Bristol. (2017).
“In these poems, with their echoes of Langland, Spenser and Milton, a laconic pastoral is fired with a lyric injunction: let the urban macro-wave find its bubble overlay skittishly reproducing an organic micro-sheaf. Let there be improbable gleanings of the faux-rural, even via cursory zones where the primal threads a maze of its own repetitions: deviant frames may have forgotten how not to go on declaring the seasons.”
– Peter Larkin
“Questioning time from the “Knowledge Quarter”: how we measure it, how we (don’t) believe in the seasons, how we live with weather in the era of climate change. Phrases flicker meanings, seen through an ecological lens, through energy politics, seen from a bicycle, on a screen, in their patchy pasts. “Forced Fingers” employs a sparser language, entering the Georgic realm of agricultural economics in an uncanny blurring of lyricism and harsh realism, with words cut up brutally by the line-breaks.”
