N E W T I T L E S F R O M S A L T NOVEMBER 2004 UNDER ALBANY Ron Silliman 1844710513 216 x 140 116pp GBP8.99 USD14.99 "With startling frankness, Under Albany lifts each �new sentence� of Silliman�s Albany to show us what's underneath. The resulting paragraphs are glimpses not only into Silliman's history, but into that of our times. Each is a sensitive seismograph recording shocks of social struggle." -- Rae Armantrout "Under Albany is the shadow movement of Ron Silliman�s epic of everyday life, The Alphabet. Silliman provides a set of extended, vividly etched, mostly autobiographical, meditations on the background for each of the original 100 sentences of his 1981 poem Albany. This constructivist memoir provides an exquisitely rich exploration of the relation of context to reference, subtext to meaning, back story to presented experience, and composition to poetics. All of Silliman�s work unravels and reforms in this exemplary and exhilarating act of attention, recollection, and reflection." -- Charles Bernstein THE WAYWARD Alan Sondheim 1844710475 216 x 140mm 252pp GBP12.99 USD19.99 "Sondheim�s work lives on the page, network, screen, and in live performance. He inhabits all-too-real imaginary spaces where code and flesh both taunt and attract each other. We are fortunate to be led, cyborg and prosthetic, by Alan�s unparalleled skill and sensitivity." -- Stephanie Strickland "Sondheim�s diasporic spin sends language whirling in cyberspace and on the page: his imagination puts us all in a verbal cosmos of exquisite touch and intellect, meta-commentary (midrash) and wor(l)d-healing. Welcome to his world wide web mind." -- Maria Damo
