This is a future simulation stripped of the space-age gloss of progression - one where the robots have gone rogue and the hopes of a new millennium are malfunctioning; a skewed yet oddly familiar world gone uncannily wrong. These playful, sharp, poems are also about more than dystopias and five types of possible apocalypse - in looking at the worst- case scenarios, Evans comes closer to the bigger narrative; universal truths of change, whether man-made or natural, preventable of inevitable, and the uncertain business of human existence where 'there are disasters that you cannot prepare yourself for'. Evans brings a distinctive, skilful and wonderfully peculiar roving eye to our restless and unpredictable times. 588 0 Online resource; title from PDF title page (EBSCO, viewed November 14, 2018). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 648 7 21st century|2fast 648 7 2000-2099|2fast 650 0 Poetry, Modern|y21st century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2020000957 650 0 Poets, English|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85103785|y21st century.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh2002012478 650 7 Poetry, Modern.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1067769 650 7 Poets, English.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1067870 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Poetry.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/ gf2014026481 655 7 Poetry.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423828 776 08 |iPrint version:|aEvans, Suzannah, 1983-|tNear future. |dRugby (England) : Nine Arches Press, 2018|z1911027468 |z9781911027461|w(OCoLC)1035511029 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1921636|zOnline eBook via EBSCO.
