Recommended Reading: This essay on Jorie Graham, Modernist poetry, and the resistance of closure from The Nation.

2013? aaaah, that’s terrible news, did not want to wait that long.
Rush read two additional excerpts from Subtle Bodies at the Hammer Museum last night and we hope to have the video posted on YouTube soon. He also said something about the publication date possibly being pushed up. Finger crossed.
