註釋Poetry. "I'm standing in for a huge range of U.S. readers and writers for whom Rob Holloway's work will be a delightful surprise--and a challenge, for we're not used to a meditative, analytical poetry with this many moving parts. The first thing I notice about PERMIT is how verb-based it is; I get the sense of a swift creek scudding across stones, and the stones are the verbs making the whole thing happen. With his narrative continually shredding itself, dressing and undressing in a single motion, Holloway creates a society of underplayed males dominated by his incomparable heroine Pam, who, like Oedipa Maas in San Francisco, wanders through and activates a London tragic, gorgeous, and numinous as life itself. So I'm telling you, Rob Holloway's poetry will open your eyes--and then some"--Kevin Killian.
