Paperback. Zustand: Good. A paradox: Ezra Pound, James Joyce, Gertrude Stein, and Louis Zukofsky all wrote their central works to be 'masterpieces'. And yet these writings are so hard to read. This work shows how the inaccessibility of their writing reveals the conflict between the goals of social relevance and literary innovation.…

paperback. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Bob Perelman' s latest book of poetry, Jack and Jill in Troy, makes use of the rapid clarity of Homer and the elemental incantations of nursery talk to create a compelling array of poems that speak to our present moment with tragic humor and urgent, skeptical directness. A rather R-rated version of Jack and Jill appear in some poems, as if a worldly-wise Mother Goose is addressing young and old in the same breath. In other poems the world of the Iliad appears- permanent war economy, never-finished gender negotiations, continual power disputes, absolute hierarchies arbitrarily enforced- but both these nursery matters and the ancient epic trappings are brought forward to provide a wide-angle frame onto our own situation. The poems in Jack and Jill in Troy are immediately legible, suggestive, and surprising.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. Perelman's substantial new collection, his ninth since 1975 and a standout even in this exceptionally rich year of poetry publication, opens with the bizarre confession that "Aliens have inhabited my aesthetics for/ decades." This perhaps ironic retraction of a career spent in resolute avant-gardism ("I / seem to have lost my avant-garde // card in the laundry") is only the first in a dizzying series of raids on a bank of personal and collective false memories, an investigation of socially produced irreality where every dream is faked, all the currencies are counterfeit, perception is hallucinatory and cognition programmed: "The thought-track wakes and thinks," he writes in "The Masque of Rhyme," "novelty again, the same old novelty. // It's almost worse than royalty." Capacious, hilarious, allusive and disturbing, The Future of Memory shows that there is a future for poetry, poetry as presence of mind, active repossession of the senses, deconcealment of mystified structures; of risk, not recapitulation. At the close of "The Manchurian Candidate: A Remake," Perelman writes: "Those deprogrammed people glimmering beyond / the evening's blocky conspiracy theories, / willing their present without shooting our past / to a bloody parable / ?have you found a way to call them yet?" This book suggests that he has. - Publishers Weekly.…
