“He finds scope for the transcendent and for the nonsense and absurdity that puncture the illusions of the self.” — Space Cowboy Books
For more than half a century the dissident British author, editor, underground publisher, and bookseller Michael Butterworth has been “an unobtrusive voice in poetry. His roots are in both the small press poetry journals of the 1960s and ’70s and in New Wave science fiction.”
More from the publisher:
“Butterworth’s work is distinguished as much for the restless intelligence, wit, and intimacy of his voice as for a determination to paint metaphorical pictures of the perils we face due to our poor regard for the fragile biosphere we live in.”
