ATTENTION SPAN 2010

A product of Third Factory

The fifty-five contributors to Attention Span 2010 referred to some six hundred cultural artefacts in all. The majority of references are singular, but as in previous years there are some patterns of overlap: one title was mentioned by eight contibutors, eight titles were mentioned four times each, fourteen were mentioned three times, and forty-five were mentioned twice.

Few of the works of poetry mentioned here circulate in the big box economy. They are best ordered directly from the publishers themselves or from Bridge Street or SPD.
