gotta get a message to you - published by Salmon Poetry - Launched March 4 2017 - The Ennis Book Club Festival -
"A poet to get excited about. This is a startling and exciting collection." Afric McGlinchy/Southword Journal "I have rarely been so moved by a book of poems," Grace Wells "Gotta Get A Message To You has floored me like no book of poetry has in a long time. Golden has an uncanny ability to touch on the things that move us most deeply." Phil Hanrahan/Bookish "The Tom Waits of Irish Poetry" Aidan Murphy/The Irish Press

"It would be naive to expect an easy read; indeed Golden threatens to overwhelm us with the darkness that can lie inside. The discomfort is, however, balanced out by moments of extreme lyricism, and by the author's unflinching honesty." Andy Robinson/The Galway Advertiser/The Interior Act(Salmon Publications 1999)
"In Daily Accord is a satisfying experiment. It remains very much an anarchic patchwork of perceptions, but one through which certain threads are patterned. Recommended." Billy Ramsell/Southward/In Daily Accord(Salmon Publications 2009)
In Partial Settlement(Wiffle Press, New York 1987)
