The Book of Assassinations: Prose Poems

Extraordinary work, extraordinary. Probably the best conceived, most cohesive and resonant prose-poem sequence I have ever read (outside of Rene Char or, maybe St. John Perse. And Rimbaud, of course- if Illuminations is really a sequence.) Supple dream images, wonderful intertwining with Proust and the facts of daily life. -Andrew Wilson, publisher, Gargoyle and Linnaean Street
