La Costa Rasa

Modern Confessional Poetry from The City of Leeds

“Mills’ poetry runs wild with his obsession with the minutiae of human life, observation and lost love.

His love for Sylvia Plath and the French masters is evident throughout and his imagery is at times rocky, misty and hazy.

Romantic and abundant with desire and a strong loyalty to the past.

Often humorous, but also poignant - his style is reaching an annihilating maturity and a sense of dynamism.

Graphic, sensual and vivid, the poetry is gripping and addictive.”

Dr George Rodosthenous, University Leeds
