Jeremy Reed's dynamically energised new collection 'Candy 4 Cannibals' finds him again pushing new frontiers of language and subject matter out to the edge, as his starting point. His impacted day-to-day London life, using the capital as the basis for poems powered up by a character immersion in subcultures, is offset by deeply personal recollections of two dead friends, the poet Lee Harwood and the sixties fashion entrepreneur Bill Franks. Reed's acute originality and an imagination described by J.G. Ballard as 'unique, almost extraterrestrial in its talent' again combine to create a poetry that literally dazzles in its spectacular use of imagery.
