Poetry. Art. First bound edition consists of 100 numbered and signed copies. "To say he 'tows the line of longitude' scarcely needs correction or apology even if we believe as I sometimes don't the linguistics textbook that ordinary language is good." So opens DANTE'S BARBERSHOP.The complex, connotatively rich performance of speech and writing acts that comprise this densely prosodized and highly visual work are built into columns embedded in a series of Xeroxed collages of photos and other material. This latest book by the author of WITTGENSTEIN'S DEVIL, THW WRITING OF SHELLEY'S DEATH (among many other titles)and co-author of the recent DAYS OF '49, FIT TO PRINT and A SELECTION OF THE WORKS OF THOMAS SWAN (see page 30) is one of most compelling works the reader of contemporary poetry is likely to find anywhere. Spiralbound, large format.

Term As In Aftermath

Ahadada Books

A major selection of the work of Alan Halsey, a vital figure of the British small press scene who has been widely published in England and the USA. Halsey seeks 'linguistic innovation' in the unlikeliest of places and having found it, delivers it to us with playful intelligence, serious comedy and lashings of wit.
