Collobert Orbital

Poetry. Translated from the Swedish by Johannes Göransson. "If Vicente Huidobro met Georges Bataille on a Waste Management® truck, the result might be something akin to Johan Jönson's COLLOBERT ORBITAL, the new manifesto of 'the waste-disposal-working-class.' At times soaring across 'aerospatiality,' at others existentially grounded in 'an overheated world factory' of 'all work, all healthcare, all logistics,' Jönson's linguistic propulsions and dynamic formal innovations challenge 'a victorious bourgeois poetry order' to, once again, rearticulate verse experimentation to the politics and poetics of working a day job."—Mark Novak
