Poetry. Art. Illustrated by Star Black. Mark Doty introduces this stunning new collection, the third in Saturnalia Books new Artist/Poet Collaboration series. Bill Knott has to be the only poet who can claim to have been--for nearly forty years now--at the head of both the avant-garde and the rear-garde of American poetry. Meticulous and formal, yet wildly inventive, Knott is among the very finest poets living today. Paired perfectly with his poems is the surreal and oddly beautiful world of Star Black's collages. STIGMATA ERRATA ETCETERA is a book that brings absurdity and wit into clear focus, reverberating with Knott's unique blend of heartrending humor and Black's playful and passionate imagery.
Bill Knott is the author of 12 highly acclaimed collections of poetry, most recently STIGMATA ERRATA ETCETERA. He taught for many years at Emerson College and now lives in central Michigan.
