Jim Leftwich

Rascible & Kempt: Meditations and Explorations in and Around the Poem, Vol. 1 Jim Leftwich

Poetry. Literary Nonfiction. Literary Criticism. VOLUME 1 (of 2) RASCIBLE & KEMPT bears geode-like secrets, exposing the living nerves of a geography where the beating heart of the avant guard glows lava red, while the book itself is a geology of Leftwich's life-long question to his own calling: How to keep all modes of writing 'absolutely as OPEN as possible.' This book is as much a training manual as it is a mechanism to reignite the fires of poetry.--Michael Peters

About RASCIBLE & KEMPT: From reading to writing, thought to non-thought, vast macrohistorical analysis to sub-lettral investigations, epistemology to pragmatics, discourses: poetics, linguistics, hermeticism, economics, history, psychology, politics, metaphysics, and more.--Olchar E. Lindsann
