This Poem is an ironic investigation of contemporary culture and the technomedia-saturated world in which we are enmeshed. Composed in the style of Facebook updates and extended Tweets, each section infuses itself with continuous shifting tones, styles, and commentary, which are in turn provocative, emotive, and deeply satiric.Mashing up the lexicons of Stein, Zukofsky, Shakespeare, Whitman, the recent financial meltdown, semiotic theory, Lady Gaga, Derrida, and Flickr streams, This Poem is a self-reflexive romp through the fragments of post-consumerist culture. Both celebrating and poking fun at contradictory trends, threads, webbed networks of information and desire, and the language of the ordinary,"e; it opens itself with immediacy to the otherness of daily carnage.This Poem interrogates the tradition of the Canadian long poem, systematically and systemically accusing it of being a multi-platform interdisciplinary repository, an archive of fragments, updates, analysis, aggregates, treatises, advice, precepts, echoes, and questions, unravelling into itself, in an ever-enfolding, luminous text of concomitance.Karasick's serial poem textually proceeds in the tradition of such poets as George Oppen, bpNichol, Robert Duncan and Jack Spicer.
Karasick's sixth book mashes up the lexicon of war with post-industrial consumerism, haute cuisine, couture, language, Eros and desire.
Explores the possibilities of meaning when language is pushed to its limits. Includes a homolinguistic "trans'elation" of the Sefer Yetzirah.
Adeena Karasick's fourth book of poetry achieves an astonishing layered complexity and maturity.
Contains, as a centrepiece, the "Alefbet Transfers," a meditative, spacial explication of the 22 figures of the Hebrew alphabet.
