Poetry. "From the incandescently estranging pastoral of from Indiana to the restlessly pivoting intimacies of Rumi Improvisations and Speech Farm Andrew Levy's texts activate our agilities as readers of the ongoing struggle to write with 'the shadow of [the] head falling over the page.' This kaleidoscopic work is buoyed by the 'complex indrafts' of an impassioned reflexivity which takes us straight into the momentum of language as it evanesces"—William Fuller.
