Good Science

Poetry. In GOOD SCIENCE Edwards has written one of the truly powerful books of poetry to come out of England in the past ten years, linking many endeavors with the phenomenon of linguistic intrigue. In these days when American writers are battling over issues of how interruptive a poem should be, Edwards' writing is what Iron magazine described as "somehow fluid and fractured at the same time." GOOD SCIENCE is an illuminating book. GOOD SCIENCE leaps over the shaggy dog of most contemporary poetry by transcending poetic license, elevating the writing beyond mere poetic concerns to a larger human scale.
