Description
Poetry. "Will we escape analogy," Claude Royet-Journoud asked. Does ANALOGIES OF ESCAPE answer this question? Or does it rather use that famous line as the enigma for a set of variations--a theme always there, under the interplay of verse and prose, but never actually sounded? The author of these "analogies," in any case, finds all analogies, all answers, questionable.
