Telescoping ideas and images in an impressive variety of forms, Eireann Lorsung honors the makers, methods, and materials embodied in daily objects. From the copper plate of an intaglio print to the patched muslin form of a dressmaker's mannequin to the maddered boy taking shape on a loom, the ephemeral becomes eternal in these poems. Combining art and artifacts to create verse that is uniquely modern, Lorsung has invented an entirely original lexicon. An astonishing debut.
