At the same time, Burnham offers an extrao...

Poems reflect on connections between Ezra Pound, imprisoned at Pisa after World War II, and military prisoners at Guantánamo Bay.

The Benjamin Sonnets are a series of poems created through a process of 'homophonic' translation from German writings by Walter Benjamin. They are ridiculous, but only in the sense that things unexpected and wonderful can be ridiculous.
