An innovative collection that strips Catholic co-ed in a series of poems in the form of monologues, letters, exam papers and newspaper articles. Bawdy, witty and poignant. John Foulcher’s "The Learning Curve" is a sequence of poems set in a fictional school called Saint Joseph’s. Using mainly dramatic monologues, Foulcher paints a depressing picture of a school where professional disappointments, an inept and religion-infested staff, and a general air of mutual loathing combine to produce what amounts to a psychological tragedy (with some physical tragedies thrown in for good measure).
