Awareness Inside Language is the most comprehensive discussion of poet-artist George Quasha's "axial poetics" as it plays out in his work of the past twenty years, called "preverbs, " represented in four published volumes: Verbal Paradise, Things Done for Themselves, The Daimon of the Moment, and Glossodelia Attract. In the form of an interview conducted by poet Thomas Fink, it addresses how apparently difficult poetry teaches new ways of read...

House Crossing is a book of 32 poems about where we live or, more properly, dwell, with each poem entitled by a different attribute of domestic architecture as it is commonly known: Cupola, eaves, attic, beams, etc. Such might lend itself to description, but--reminiscent in part of Ronald Johnson's oeuvre (The Foundations, The Spires and The Ramparts)--in the vision of poet and scholar Laurie Patton each component becomes alive to an actuality...

False Documents, by Peter Lamborn Wilson (Hakim Bey), is a series of "Borgesian" fictions, each pretending to be a "document" from various literary, commercial, or otherwise culturally-pertinent contexts. Together they comprise a tour de force of structural imagination: an intricate reflection on the "alchemy" of creation and dissolution for a contemporary world whose discursive forms tend to obscure as often as illumine.
