LRO reviews Make It the Same

Posted byJacob Edmond Leave a comment on LRO reviews Make It the Same

Make It the Same: Poetry in the age of global media is an important, fascinating and timely discussion of poetry of the iterative turn. Via a finely curated selection of poets and their work, Jacob Edmond compares the ideas ‘original’ and ‘copy’, offering insight into the iterative work of particular socio-geographical contexts that highlight, but do not necessarily capitulate to, the prevailing capitalist system.

So concludes Tasha Haines’s review of Make It the Same. You can read the full review in Landfall Review Online.
