A poetics of impasse in modern and contemporary American poetry

Susan M. Schultz

About this book

Addresses the problem of silence in contemporary experimental poetry and examines silence as an aesthetic strategy in itself. The result is an extended meditation on the precarious balance among competing forces in liberating poetic discourse from the realms of silence and the impasses it creates.
