Description
Poetry. HYBRID MOMENTS is a tribute to identity crisis, a paean to semantic breakdown and reconstruction, and homage to the trickster spirit, most high sovereign of the poetic estate. Lifting its name from a song by the gothic/punk/horror rock band The Misfits, the volume hosts a diverse array of misfits and marvelously misshapen personae, all frustrating stable categories, worlds and rhythms. There is always need of time to shatter bonds, binaries and easy ascribable designs and Jon Curley's HYBRID MOMENTS heralds the occasion with antic grace, wit and weirdness.
