'This is the debut of a mature, flexible poetic voice ranging from sardonic wit to pathos. Catch celebrates the bodily and spiritual here and now while suggesting there is no certain divide between dream and reality. Many poems read like one act dramas, where just one ambiguity or disarming reference may give us an uncomfortable jolt into surprising perspectives.'

Michael Tolkien

'The poems of Katie Daniels are sharp, original and sensual.  In Catch, the physicality of her lines ranges across landscape, love, memory and skin in all their traps and wonders.  She displays a confident mixture of lyricism, almost surreal imagery at times, and passion throughout.'

Robert Hamberger
