Poetry. THE PASSION OF PHINEAS GAGE & SELECTED POEMS presents the best of Glass' experimental writing in a single volume. Glass' ground-breaking work has been hailed by poets as diverse as Jerome Rothenberg, William Bronk and Jim Daniels for its insight into human nature and its exploration of forms. Glass uses the tools of post-modernism: collaging, fragmentation, and Oulipo-like processes along with a keen understanding of poetic forms and traditions that stretches back to Beowulf and beyond. Moreover, Glass finds his subject matter in larger than life figures like Phineas Gage-the man whose life was changed in an instant when an iron bar was sent rocketing through his brain in a freak accident. The product of over 30 years of engagement with the avant-garde, THE PASSION OF PHINEAS GAGE & SELECTED POEMS is the work of a mature poet who continues to reinvent himself with every text he produces.

Knives Forks and Spoons

In this selection of plays, Jesse Glass' imagination rages, leaps and staggers from the Challenger disaster of 1986 to the hallucinated lucubrations of Thomas Holley Chivers (friend and rival of Edgar Allan Poe), and manages to cover the arrival of a cosmic, sexual vermiform lemure of the Kabbalistic Bohu-Tohu in a reportorial manner worthy of N.P.R., while ringing the changes on a young man's sexual angst in the face of the ambiguities of the Summerland. Visionary, gutteral, Artaudian, relentless, filled with the televised promise of a black & white yesterday and the anguished cry of tomorrow's prize-winning Flamenco singer, Glass' plays disengage, disencumber, debride, devour and deflower even while they detonate on the Senecan tongue in the midst of intoning. They scale their own Everests, plant their own flags, and play Stanley to the Livingstone of our bugeoning post-post-post-post-modrnity. I enjoyed your elvishly weird play ["Dove Hunting"] in 'Grimoire VI.' Very haunting and Magical. -Helen Adam "A rabid and venereal imagination...." -Herbert Blau, author of Blooded Thought and The Impossible Theater.
