Beschreibung

"Train Music chronicles the 2017 four-day railroad trip (New York to California) of poet C. S. Giscombe and book artist Judith Margolis, old friends. Giscombe was returning home to address an all-white audience on white supremacy; expatriate Margolis, usually solitary and itinerant, was visiting the country of her birth, drawing scenery and collaging insomniac night visions. Journeying, conversing, arguing, sharing memories, they document a complex and volatile American landscape, one at once geographical and historical, one holding specific implications for the lives of both. Margolis and Giscombe chart their own passage through all that, through a dangerous and puzzling world that-too often-"passes as normal." Train Music is the insistent and unlikely shape that the two sensibilities achieve"--
