The Annotated "Here" and Selected Poems

by Marjorie Welish

A retrospective of this challenging New York School / Language poet’s life work in poetry, The Annotated “Here” features poems in sequences that meditate on words and sentences, as well as on themes found in existing texts of poems and paintings. Welish’s poems blur the lines between art criticism and lyrical meditations on language and reality.

Really hard time getting on board with this book, but if you can make it to the "in translation" section, rewards abound.
