Produktbeschreibung
Poetry. Steven Ross Smith is one of Canada's preeminent sound poets. He is also one of the few poets in Canada currently engaged in writing a life-poem (a long poem that encompasses a life) --EMANATIONS is the sixth chapter of that project. Smith bends, confuses, and disintegrates the fundamental premises of poetic and fictive creation-working language, narrative, and meaning like sculptural material. EMANATIONS: FLUTTERTONGUE 6 marks Smith's return to verse form, while being a further engagement with composition by sound and its visual placement on the page. These poems "emanate" from specific works by other poets, including bpNichol, Sylvia Legris, Federico Garcia Lorca, and Lisa Robertson. In this charged and frenetic work, the dominant themes are nature's precariousness, social conundrums, and poetics.
