Sharkey : Ern Burial, Michael Sharkey , single work criticism
'Precisely whom Sir Thomas Browne had in mind when he wrote this lovely description in Hydriotaphia, or Urne-Buriall is a question as puzzling as his teaser about the song the Sirens sang. But we can all supply a list of tedious beings who might better please us were they to embrace non-being. I admit to detesting certain beings. And certain non-beings who are ritually tricked-up and exhibited, like the toed remains of Bentham, to the gaze of people who honestly don't give a toss about the old spectre, and who hardly know who or what he ever was or did.'
