"[...] by far my favourite individual volume of poetry this year [was] Tony Lopez's False Memory, a series of sonnet sequences collaging and remixing the white noise of 1990s Britain into a disorienting, sometimes hilarious, often sinister, and always satirical challenge." -Robert Potts, The Guardian, 6 December 2003."
