In these poems, aftermath requires a new language. Dust and ash compound with mother and father, mud compounds with blossom. These spare lyrics contain numerous transformations, and \"just because the body is gone\/does not mean the absence of body is gone.\" Absences loom everywhere--the mouth, the breath, the treacherous god in the tempest.\"\u003cbr\u003e -\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTraci Brimhall\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\"In Erik Fuhrer's Not Human Enough for the Census, toxins inhabit the living like ghosts moving through generations, as silent and unseen as they are deadly; there's \"oil in blood, breastmilk, saliva\" and bodies with coal for eyes.... That is, the fluidity of his verse blurs the boundaries between bodies and their environment; it exposes hurricanes as climate ignorance, and shows how, here in the age of the Anthropocene, poetry can evoke a sense of the anti-nature we're ushering into being.\"\u003cbr\u003e -Steve Tomasula\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.18 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e December 03, 2019\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42710571745343,"sku":"9780578613819","price":23.17,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/653ac0df64dc7d99058d7d6facb9f46d.webp?v=1765055407","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/not-human-enough-for-the-census-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
