poetry, Blaser's 40-year masterwork
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
From the Inside Flap:
"In his exquisite articulations of the flowers of associational thinking, Robin Blaser has turned knowledge into nowledge, the 'wild logos' of the cosmic companionship of the real."―Charles Bernstein, author of Republics of Reality: 1975-1995
"Blaser is a fine poet and a superb representative of a tradition that is still undervalued. His work is very important."―Charles Altieri
"Blaser plays his poems like an instrument. The glorious phrases that come forth ring with the memory of fairy tale, myth, gospel, but hang hard on to the modern world in his variety of measure and stress. Blaser is moving us all forward to a less certain result through a forest that has few resting places where the sun stays for longer than a minute."―Fanny Howe
