Slab Phases by Matt Turner Now Available!

We are pleased to announce that Slab Phases by Matt Turner is Now Available!

Trying to give up coffee, I discovered that reading poems by Matt Turner first thing in the morning gives me a more piquant and durable high. The repetitions and variations, the sleight-of-sound, the sudden emotional pledges, the stepped intellection— all this compacted into quick bolts of sound, energy, thought and feeling. Turner’s stanzas are like voltaic charges. The ambiguity between expanding recursive phrases and independent fragments creates the kind of doubling, breaking, and recombining of meanings that we might call mitotic. There it is, then: the Matt Turner School of Mitotic Poetics. In session!

—Forrest Gander

These are worlds that float as microscopic filaments alive as micro-engravings kinetic with migrational telepathy as they glisten with their own dictation. An endemic domain not unlike primordial grammar that dictates protracted simplicity.
