Only More So (Paperback, First UK ed)


In this twenty-first century poem, Tony Lopez samples and seamlessly combines writings from many fields of science and culture, composing by means of intuitive and discreet intervention something quite unique. In a review of Darwin (one 10% section of Only More So) Ron Silliman described this writing as "the most exquisitely constructed prose I've ever read-more lush than Proust"; he wrote that it "just might be the most beautiful poetry collection ever written." Only More So engages the darkest aspects of human nature, extinction and genocide; it may also be the first Constructivist poem composed on the pleasure principle.
