At the time
of its original publication, a raiders
guide was celebrated for its glitchy aesthetic, using tropes from
contemporary music to remix and sample lines. This book, as fresh and
surprising as when it was first published, will be compelling to new readers,
and offers followers of Farrell's work an insight into the characteristic
poetic style he has developed and refined over the subsequent decade.
'A poetry of the glitch…these poems
function like the proverbial spanner in the works of semantic distribution, so
important to conventional lyric poetry'. — Jaya Savage, Sydney Morning Herald
'Farrell’s
peculiarly amusing playfulness is the most consistent tone, killing any
expected gesture, throttling any cliché.' — Gig Ryan, ABR
