Description

Really intelligent, coquette, fuck-you work - a space for a new kind of anti-misogynism in poetry. - Marianne Morris High electrics and considerable. - Allen Fisher [Emily Critchley] has incorporated influences from popular culture and from a more-streetwise feminist critique. [H]er poetry - is combative, intellectual and probing but this seems tempered by an upbeat and more popular sense of engagement, which makes her unusual and interesting. - Stride Magazine Her formally adventurous poetry implicates its author in, then deftly upends, the conventions - political, sexual, intellectual, and emotional - that threaten to diminish the purview of any fierce, bright, 21st-century female.

Critchley practises a brisk vernacular anti-lyric, often in the name of love and always in a language that (pounding Pound) 'hath 'ham' innit.' As an antidote to a future that 'may be very wrong,' these poems are absolutely right. - Jean Day
