There is nothing resembling it in the U.S. in relation to my work.'(Andrea Dworkin)'This model monograph - it is an exemplary job, and I'm very proud that he has accorded me a couple of mentions... The subject matter of his book is beautifully organised and dead on beam.'(Lawrence Durrell, on The Light Eternal: A Study of J.M.W. Turner)'Jeremy Robinson's poetry is certainly jammed with ideas, and I ¿nd it very interesting for that reason. It's certainly a strong imprint of his personality.'(Colin Wilson)'Sex-Magic-Poetry-Cornwall is a very rich essay... It is a very good piece... vastly stimulating and insightful.'(Peter Redgrove)
