About this site

andrew duncan
related to themes of Angel Exhaust magazine. essays in literary history around the edges of a series of books called 'Affluence, Welfare, and Fine Words', theme: British poetry 1960-97 (with excursions into the 1940s). the parts were published 2003-17. main substance is in the books. but every book leaves something out, and the poetry scene is surrounded by a realm of neglect. in fact, someone has to crawl through the long grass to find what has been kicked into the long grass. contact editor at andrew(dot)duncan73(at sign)ntlworld(dot)com
