Hand Signs from Eternity's Yurt

Meer over het boek

"In 21-plus-one sonnets provoked by and tethered to quotes drawn from the work of British philosopher Mary Midgley, you know right away from her very first words what Diane Raptosh cares about: 'I prize what praise phrases' is her flagship declaration that sound is queen in this realm. What follows is a series of inventively packaged powerplants of sonic signification, poems that yield just as many aha moments as ooh moments in their condensed and intensified engagement with big questions. Do you detect underlying trumpet voluntaries on the themes of informed resistance and revolutionary compassion? Yes, you most certainly do." -- Karen Donovan
