Poetry. A new book of poetry by the always-inventive Susan Smith Nash, author of CHANNEL-SURFING THE APOCALYPSE and DOOMSDAY BELLY. "If one of the jobs of poetry at the present time is to explore the nature of language and its interaction with other forms of communication and perception, Susan Smith Nash has achieved a great deal. Not only has she given herself the freedom to explore the world in a way that few contemporary poets have allowed themselves to do, she has moved out of the fly-over state of mind that sees American English and its literary genres as the only ones available" -- Karl Young, from the afterword.
