The House of Eros is a rich scripture of the body: Revelations as Rubaiyat. The poet, while hesitant to release himself from an old grief, is firmly in bliss again; he summons the language of the mystics to mark the holiness of his love -- his adoration -- the only force strong enough to hold against the indifference of the universe. -William Pierce Senior Editor Agni Magazine As richly allusive as it is impassioned, Matthew David Campbell's poetry plunges the reader into "a deluge of metaphor, and a wave in the heart." The writing is by turns carnal and metaphysical, tortured and inspired, yet it is "vulnerable in the elements" too. House of Eros announces the arrival of a powerful new poetic voice. -PhD Mark Rutter University of Winchester England, Author Basho in Acadia The House of Eros is a chapbook collection of poems by Matthew David Campbell that is simply an intoxicating and intimate experience for all readers.
