Identifier: CC-29886-31273
Scope and Contents

Swanberg (aka Markhardt) analyzes levy's poem, "Selected Writings" of 1967, "in which no images appear and in which the words and lines bleed with a superabundance of black mimeo ink ringed by a faint aura of oil...The poem's destructive writing is a putting to death of words. Its realm is without mastery, without time. It is the instant of a complete spending, in which words are sacrificed and the poem IS." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
