Fantasies in Permeable Structures Laura Elrick Poetry Factory School. 2005. 76 pages, perfect bound, 6.5x9. ISBN: 1-60001-041-5 Description: This book takes the idea that history is not linear as its starting point. Can "outmoded" discursive forms do more than appear as the junkyard backdrop for the imperatives of capitalist cultural production? What speaks through what is already there? If we can think of the present as the future of its past, is it possible to re-spatialize the present from behind the bulwark of postmodernist procedures? |
