Disarming honesty; a refreshing seriousness; a remarkable range of form and tone - these are the striking characteristics of Martyn Crucefix's poetry. His first collection, Beneath Tremendous Rain reveals a willingness to tackle major issues with a directness and sensitivity that is matched by his forthright treatment of personal relationships. Crucefix rages at man's destructive stupidities, casts a cold eye on our desire and self-deception, yet he can still persuade the reader of the necessity to 'maintain hope which is essential.'
