QuickviewHow Proust Ruined My Life and Other Essays by Gloria Frym
Critical ThinkingIn this wonderful assemblage of essays, Gloria Frym liberates the act of reading from the confines of the page. She leads us into the open air where the personal and the public intersect and create a new avenue of possibilities: the book in the hand, the world outside your window. Especially memorable are the probing essays on Jean Toomer and Lorine Niedecker, and her homage to David Meltzer. How Proust Ruined My Life is a timeless book and deserves a wide audience. --Lewis Warsh$22.00 -
QuickviewMind Over Matter by Gloria Frym
Critical Thinking, SuperstarsHow does the present imprint itself on language, on poetry? Gloria Frym's Mind Over Matter shows us that: the outlines of the endless wars, the credit default swaps. But it also shows poetry resisting this. "No poem/would stand for such a line." Frym writes. "A poem is not a fool." This book makes me want to cheer. —Rae Armantrout$16.00
