The fourth
full-length collection of poems by Irish poet Patrick
Cotter Quality Control at the Miracle Factory
reflects the dark times of its writing, moving with
unease through the world. Injustice and brutality are
faced unflinchingly while the miracle of survival and
endurance is credited and marvelled at, wherever it
might occur
"Filled
with closely observed, constantly arresting and truly
original and powerful images and themes, the poems in
Quality Control in the Miracle Factory are of an
unusually high calibre, such as one seldom finds. And,
unlike much of today’s verse, they make you feel as well as
think."
