Scope and Contents

On the back cover and internet, it is stated that Helen White (www.krikri.be/helen) was born in Britain in 1977 and now lives in Ghent, Belgium, where she co-organizes festivals and other poetry events as a member of the Krikri polypoetry collective. Recent publications include a contribution to the anthologies Zieteratuur (Uitgeverij Passage, Groningen, 2010) and Last Vispo (forthcoming). Her chapbook How to Quote Visual Poetry is no. 94 in Luc Fierens' postfluxpostbooklet series. Inspired by the miniature format of the series, this chapbook is a collection of fragments from larger projects along with poems that would otherwise be too small to print. Helen says: "I have always experienced poems as tangible objects: as a child, my favourites were the ones that felt like putting a marble in my mouth and walking around with it hidden under my tongue. I make poems with kaleidoscopes, shadows, pebbles, my fingers. Most of the poems photographed in this booklet can be held in the hand, although with some of them -- pins wire broken glass -- you might not want to." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
