Rich's début chapbook, 'Mr Universe', from Eyewear Books, is a Poetry Book Society Pamphlet Choice (Autumn 2017). His work has been described as follows:
"Convincing and compulsive, original, adroit and dramatically exciting."
(George Szirtes, poet)
"Experimental, playful, politically engaged, Goodson offers a wealth of creative approaches in poems that are full to the brim: he is following William Blake's road of excess in search of knowledge."
(Andrew Jackson, PBS Pamphlet Selector)
"Fast, decisive and funky."
(T.R.Langton, poet)
"Goodson's poems will demand your attention... in variety of form and tone, (they) are judicious to the point of delicacy. They're as taut as a dancer's calf."
(Gregory Woods, poet and critic)
