I find Hannah Weiner's writing extremely fascinating--and puzzling.

Utter polyphonic bliss. Shifting rhetorical directions & a multiplicity of selves maneuver the flows of this work. Reflections on the moment by moment incidents of life, yet recognizing each moment as temporally, subjectively insecure—that self & social scatters over a range of simultaneous beings, voices. A lesson in the absence of separation between our selves & all that we encounter.

Everything that makes Weiner's writing so fascinating to so many is immediately apparent. A poetry of interruptions. But try as I might, I can't get into most of this work.

We've barely begun to scratch the surface of Weiner's achievement, but thanks to Patrick Durgin the glacier's at least now visible, and portable. Full speed ahead.

form, form, form. Did she channel? Is channeling writing? ethers to some, psychic to others. experimental, avant-garde, appropriate terms. a true Language poet.
