    Some would call Neptune Park a graphic novel-minus the pictures. Mumblecore, infidel pamphlet, lazy cento, its archive harbors a voice that sounds real enough-a verbal tranny-culled from the unhoused parley of shame (and its sisters), suburban squats, queer idylls, and teenage millionaires.

    "In this bold, speculative, and immensely learned study . . . Tiffany['s concept of] lyric substance--the 'sense' of materiality supplied to us by poets like Wallace Stevens and Marianne Moore--constitutes a world whose inaccessibility is legitimized by the principles of scientific materialism. Thus lyric, too long on the periphery of materialist discourse, emerges as being squarely in its center."--Marjorie Perloff, Stanford University, author of "The Futurist Moment and "Wittgenstein's Ladder"A lyrical inquiry into the circle of ideas: materialism, science, poetics. Winding through the whole is a fascinating exploration of toys--children's toys, physicists' toy models, philosophers' robots, nuclear weaponeers' toy towns. . . . My hope is that this book will contribute to a growing interest not in cleaving science from the arts but rather in exploring, poetically, the language, images and things that illuminate both." --Peter Galison, Mallinckrodt Professor of the History of Science and Physics, Harvard University"A brilliant achievement, synthesizing the history of science and poetics, technology and the arts, in an iconology of materialism. . . All that is solid melts into air in this book, but just as quickly the airy poems of our climate condense into material, objective forms, weird gadgets, and objects of scientific research. . . A wonderful feast of learning and wit." --W. J. T. Mitchell, University of Chicago, author of "Picture Theory and "Iconology"In clear-eyed and gorgeous prose, "Toy Medium moves the question of Art's encounter with Science to an utterly original point of conflagration: where matter is mostly not matter. . . . Going to the bottom of theImagination, where it still truly involves images, Tiffany explores how we have learned to see the inscrutable via our imagistic grasp of materiality. . . . This book is daring, brilliant, and deeply clever."--Jorie Graham, Boylston Professor of English, Harvard University, author of "Materialism and winner of the Pulitzer Prize

    Poetry has long been regarded as the least accessible of literary genres. But how much does the obscurity that confounds the reader of a poem differ from, say, the slang or patois that captivates listeners of hip-hop? This book examines the shared incomprehensibilities of poetry and slang.

    Focusing on the necrophilic dimension of Pound's poetry and the inflections of materiality enabled by the modernist image, Tiffany finds a continuum between Decadent practice and the avant-garde, between the image's prehistory and its political afterlife, between the "corpse language" of Victorian poetry and a conception of the "radioactive" image
