Sinopsis:

‘Khaled Hakim is the great lost British experimental writer of the last quarter century. I believe that his importance … lies in the fact that he brings a powerful and original set of ingredients to the most important kind of contemporary poetry. His film-making background and engagement with the work of Stan Brakhage changed the speed and the angle of his L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E-polarized poetry. He was the only UK poet to work with David Antin’s conversational poetics. His Brummie-styled phonetic writing drew parallels with the similarly individual universes of Tom Leonard and bill bissett, and his class and colour were—and still are, of course—important. The conversations that his writing and being sparked in the 1990s have never really been followed through in British poetry.’ — Tim Atkins, from the Foreword to this volume
