LIGHT-HEADED

Product Information

In Matt Hart’s poetry, crackling diction and soulful exuberance take the wheel for a happily bent ride through waking and dreaming spaces. Hart works the contours of his chosen forms with precision and humor, and emphasizes reoccurrence as poetic value and material dynamic through which to channel further depths of possibility for the imagination.

—Anselm Berrigan

Hart’s boisterous formal play recalls the work of other bravely errant iterants: Teds Berrigan and Greenwald; Lyn Hejinian; and Swinburne (if he got lost in Cincinnati in the 00s). Verse versus reverb makes for dazzlingly interlocking structures, sweet, urgent and local as difficulty. “Press playpen”!

—Catherine Wagner

    This review is from: Light-Headed (Paperback)

    This ingenious fellow has contrived to have two 100p+ poetry books out within a month of each other. I give him 5 for effort; would some kind person over there care to compare and contrast? From this side of the pond the clamour of voices is both inspiring and a little intimidating. Poetry dead? Poppycock!
