P. INMAN: "THE MOST RADICAL WRITER OF THE LAST FORTY YEARS,"

according to a book description on the back cover of P. Inman's collected poems

WRITTEN
1976-2013

"The most radical."  I'd love for someone to take this on.

A 727-page book.  Professionally conceived (I mean that positively).  Craig Dworkin's Introduction is interesting.

So who would like to receive this brick (to know me is to know I adore poetry bricks) by reviewing it for Galatea Resurrects?  I can think of three regular GR reviewers up to the task (and you all read this blog) -- will I get a hit?

Actually, many of you are more than capable.  If you have the time and desire.

I'd take it on but I'm currently writing a 727,000-page book so am a bit pressed for time.  But if you have the time and desire, I'd be delighted to hear from you.  GalateaTen@aol.com

Meanwhile, it looks like this:



I am generally untouched by any "most ___" description.  But what does move me is the commitment and ambition in a poet that would come to be manifested by such a poetry brick.  Respect.

(There are other compelling poetry titles deserving review HERE.)
