Hand + Star Reviews High Performance

Hand + Star is a nicely designed smart literary review for the 21st century. They have given Luke Wright’s High Performance a nice review here.

“Wright is similar to Larkin: dealing with the banality of the world and the confusion of its changing; the inevitability of loss, of aging and decay; reappraising one’s identity as a result; and occasionally coming up with some really great, funny lines.” Will Carr, Hand + Star
