Description

"An experiment in creating an autobiography's negative, I Have Never Been Able to Sing draws inspiration from the discursive, non-linear sentences of Rosmarie Waldrop's The Reproduction of Profiles and Édouard Levé's Autoportrait, as well as from the intricate curvature of Leon Ferrari's heliographic drawings and Leslie Hewitt's multi-layered photographs. Unfolding through a series of discrete moments and overlapping fragments, the poem explores the unstable ground of dichotomy, the constant slippage between past and present, real and imagined selves."--Publisher's website.
