Veronica Forrest-Thomson's Poetic Artifice
 
Veronica Forrest-Thomson's Poetic Artifice: A Theory of Twentieth Century Poetry
 
Forrest-Thomson looks at "nonmeaningful" language ("which she sees as the vital future for poetry," Bernstein notes)
 
"At times, Forrest-Thomson's work is frustratingly claustrophobic; but its uncompromising, fierce, and passionate seriousness makes it an enormously moving experience to read"
