Poetry. Duncan writes a poetry of monotonous power, with its origins in an extreme case of alienation. Despite the bewildering variety of arcane and sophisticated contexts in which his rhetoric is deployed, it is almost embarassingly amenable to recuperation....Science-fiction, shamanism, psychosis, violence, myth and dream are significant to Duncan chiefly as mundane reality, which is otherwise invariably subject to caricature -- James Keery, PN Review. Andrew Duncan's work is adept, inordinate and alone...like nothing else in current British poetry -- Tim Allen.
