Khaled Hakim is the great lost British experimental writer of the last quarter century. I believe that his importance ... lies in the fact that he brings a powerful and original set of ingredients to the most important kind of contemporary poetry. His film-making background and engagement with the work of Stan Brakhage changed the speed and the angle of his L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E-polarized poetry. He was the only UK poet to work with David Antin's conversational poetics. His Brummie-styled phonetic writing drew parallels with the similarly individual universes of Tom Leonard and bill bissett, and his class and colour were--and still are, of course--important. The conversations that his writing and being sparked in the 1990s have never really been followed through in British poetry.' -- Tim Atkins, from the Foreword to this volume
