Poetry. "Who says letters and words are flat, arbitrary signs? In Geof Huth's OUT OF CHARACTER, they are animate, vibrant, interactive, intra/inter/connecting us and eye. These creatures wink, bow, dance, copulate,imperiously stare, all pressing at the boundaries of the page, at the boundaries of language. Reaching deep into the matter of our writing, Huth has brought to light its substantial, vital, squirming innards and outtards. Taking these visual poems up in the hands of your eyes, you will find many that fit you as well as the organs of your own body. What else can you ask from a book?"--Crag Hill.
