Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. There's nothing that doesn't belong and no two things that can't be combined in Marco Maisto's explosive world of percussive potential, and yet every word is curated; his choices are deliberate, often surprisingly delicate, and always informed by his excellent ear and inventive exuberance. His astonishing linguistic agility juggles through a found journal and an old video tape, through collapsing lions and finch-colored echoes--all within a recurrent address to a you somehow too close to be clearly seen, and thus rendered limitless. Such a radical proliferation of possibility is ultimately contagious--Who are you not? he asks at one point, and the fact that we have no answer is everything. --Cole SwensonMarco Maisto's debut poetry collection, Traces of a Fifth Column, gives us gorgeous, haunting glimpses of the transhuman future that looms already in the indispensability of our sleek little devices. But Maisto sounds neither a moralistic warning bell nor a death knell for the human race in these poems; rather, he revels in rich layers of feeling and loss as only we humans can. Here, in a space where communication has become the echo of dissolving planets, where the I has become a mirage or hordes or the specters of ourselves that swim still, in the underground aquariums of summers rapidly to come, Maisto constructs what could be construed as a masterful science fi ction, but what is really (or is also) an ethereal, moving paean to the human heart and mind. --Laura SimsMurmuring blood magic into our ears, making room for seeing by writing, by stringingsonic bloom across the line, Marco Maisto's Traces of a Fifth Column is a love poem made of poems working the front and back of what's felt by listening. Wild shapely diction and beamed-into-mind tonalities (up-closeness) are your guides into the irreducible warmth this gorgeous poetry sings into shape. --Anselm Berrigan.…
