Continuous Frieze Bordering Red
Continuous Frieze Bordering [Red] documents the migratory patterns of an Other as she travels between countries, languages, and shades of Rothko's red. A narrative on hybridity, the text navigates the instability of cultural border identities and functions as an ekphrasis of Rothko's bricked-in, water-damaged windows in his Seagram murals.
She, a Blueprint
Poetry. Art. Asian American Studies. Poems by Michelle Naka Pierce and images by Sue Hammond West. "It is an ekphrasis of the female form, one which writes a woman into being where the woman cannot be. It is a reverse-ekphrasis of the formal female, one which images what might be a woman were woman not imagined. Pierce and Hammond West's SHE, A BLUEPRINT underscores that every grid is someone's narrative, and there is only necessity in the thrust of us" Vanessa Place."
Beloved Integer
Poetry. "This marvelous book, so light on all its hands and feet, so assured in the delicacy of its unwavering precision...BELOVED INTEGER presents its visitors/voyagers with a complex adaptive system of memory and desire, a kind of visible city rich in 'variably negotiated moments of production,' in 'oceanic felling,' in 'dialogues in solitude,' in easy energy and hard-earned matter, fearlessly held up to the light, which adumbrates the deepest territories of the heart"--Laird Hunt.
Asian American Poetry
A modern poetry anthology that includes the work of a second generation of Asian American poets who are taking the best of the prior generation, but also breaking conventional patterns.
Saints of Hysteria
Collaborative poetry — poems written by one or more people — grew out of word games played by French surrealists in the 1920s. It was taken up a decade later by Japan’s Vou Club and then by Charles Henri Ford, who created the chainpoem, composed by poets who mailed their lines all over the world. After WW II, the Beat writers’ collaborative experiments resulted in the famous Pull My Daisy. The concept was embraced in the 1970s by feminist poets as a way to find a collective female voice. Yet, for all its rich history, virtually no collections of collaborative poetry exist. This exhilarating anthology remedies the omission. Featured are poems by two, four, even as many as 18 people in a dizzying array of forms: villanelles to ghazals, sonnets to somonkas, pantoums to haiku, even quizzes, questionnaires, and other nonliterary forms. Collaborators’ notes accompany many of the poems, giving a fascinating glimpse into the creative process.

Self Portrait in Green
'NDiaye is a hypnotic storyteller with an unflinching understanding of the rock-bottom reality of most people's life.' New York Times ' One of France's most exciting prose stylists.' The Guardian. Obsessed by her encounters with the mysterious green women, and haunted by the Garonne River, a nameless narrator seeks them out in La Roele, Paris, Marseille, and Ouagadougou. Each encounter reveals different aspects of the women; real or imagined, dead or alive, seductive or suicidal, driving the narrator deeper into her obsession, in this unsettling exploration of identity, memory and paranoia. Self Portrait in Green is the multi-prize winning, Marie NDiaye's brilliant subversion of the memoir. Written in diary entries, with lyrical prose and dreamlike imagery, we start with and return to the river, which mirrors the narrative by posing more questions than it answers.

Geographies of Identity
Geographies of Identity: Narrative Forms, Feminist Futures explores identity and American culture through hybrid, prose work by women, and expands the strategies of cultural poetics practices into the study of innovative narrative writing. Informed by Judith Butler, Homi Bhabha, Harryette Mullen, Julia Kristeva, and others, this project further considers feminist identity politics, race, and ethnicity as cultural content in and through poetic and non/narrative forms. The texts reflected on here explore literal and figurative landscapes, linguistic and cultural geographies, sexual borders, and spatial topographies. Ultimately, they offer non-prescriptive models that go beyond expectations for...
