No Art

An exhilarating collection of the award-winning poetry that helped establish Ben Lerner as one of the most searching, ambitious and formally inventive writers working today

Değerlendirmeler

Dealing mostly in intricately patterned sequences and variations [... Lerner's] prose poems allow for moments of grace and insight... There is added colour and weight to Lerner's thought, a more discursive, personal tone, less fractured through formal constraint or interruption, and the increasingly oppressive presence of the future, of ideas and posterity and survival, supply a gravitas and vulnerability which suits his voice and concerns. It bodes well for whatever Ben Lerner does next
