Interesting Michael. Sorry but I only just got to read it. With regard to Denise Riley I agree that her writing displays a more typical (positive sense typical) likeness to mainstream poetry than non-mainstream. Many of my friends have noticed it too. The difference for me is that Riley's writing is 'authentic' - this will rile somebody.
Cheers
