Just In: Word of Navigational Change: New and Selected Work

Just In: Word of Navigational Change: New and Selected Work

Ed Robeson
4.6/5 ( ratings)
Roberson, one critic has said, is one of those deeply skilled poets -- like William Bronk, Jack Spicer, and Gustaf Sobin -- who have worked far outside that matrix of professional critics and reviewers where literary reputations are determined. Although his reputation among African-American and innovative writers has long been secure, his work was not widely known until Voices Cast Out to Talk Us In appeared in 1995.The birds put inside what the walking felt divide their going, what -- without that void, the ground between -- brings walking to its cul-de-sac.The birds put nothing in their bones.In a review of Voices Cast Out to Talk US In, Garrett Caples wrote, What I find most engaging about Roberson's poems is their exploitation of sentence cadences -- their abrupt shifts in tone or direction -- in order to open up a wide range of grammatical and/or interpretive possibilities.
