Poetry. Edited by Nicholas Johnson. This extensive anthology gathers 33 poets and prose artists whose work defines contemporary attitudes to poetics. Large, generous selections of published, scarce and new writing by a cross-cultural ray of poets...Performance art, visual writing and photo-text; lyric/ experimental poetry; poetry in Gaelic, Scots and regional idioms, clash together in this controversial, and contentious anthology. FOIL includes statements by the poets, and comprehensive bio-data. This writing, which emerged between 1985-2000, has never been gathered into an anthology before. FOIL represents a long overdue survey of a submerged high risk culture. Contributors include: Nicholas Johnson, Caroline Bergvall, Drew Milne, Ira Lightman, David Rees, Kevin Nolan, Karlien van den Beukal, and Tertia Longmire.
