Poetry. In this pamphlet-length poem, William Fuller offers a text where language is a wing. Fuller makes perceptible the struggle for the text to co-exist with its human interpreters (both author and reader). We are confronted with a poem which states Land alleges my form / amputated by poetry. In this poem written in memory of Tim McGinnis, Fuller places our mortality at the book's core: Neither flesh nor word, I look back from where I will go. William Fuller lives and works in Chicago, Ill. His previous books include BYT and THE SUGAR BORDERS (both O Books) and AETHER (Gaz).

Poetry. Drawing equally on Buddhist sutras and country blues, William Fuller's SADLY derives compassion from its ironic vision. Quick and sometimes elusive, these poems observe fluctuations in economic markets, the weather, and human consciousness. "Despite the confession that the 'nonexistence of essences is a pain in my heart,' these poems remain confident of 'the insubordination of many/ thousand aggregates swirling up the light pole.' And they generously share that confidence with the reader in return for a politic hope: 'if we could only stand back/ as "they" rather than "us."' Hitting the marvelous heights of his earlier collection, AETHER, SADLY finds Fuller's 'sloping toward heaven/ but not parasitic on it'"—Simon Perril.

<p>The book portrays the the waqrmth, humor, and daily life of a Norwegian family and the unusual exploits of a younger son who worked at a hotel housing German officers during the occupation. A wealth of historical detail does much to counter the virtually unrecognized importance of Norway in world War II. There are some intriguing conclusions: The impetuous decision to invade Norway cost Hitler the war. A Norwegian colonel, disobeying orders, changed the course of history. Norway's world monopoly on "heavy water" gave Germany a false sense of security in nuclear research: a crucial factor in its failure to develop an atomic bomb.</p>
