Full Description
James Grabill creates new consciousness, ones that dare to explore the myriad ways objects, events, processes, and persons interrelate to form incredibly complex and exciting realities. He uses words to merge these elements much in the way sunlight, water vapor, and the earth's rotation merge into the living complexity we call a hurricane. These poems can change your relationship to language, your epistemology, your dreams, and your life." - Bill Tremblay
