Company of Moths

Michael Palmer has bee hailed by John Ashbery as 'exemplarily radical' and by The Village Voice as 'the most influential avant-gardist working, and perhaps the greatest poet of his generation.' His new book, Company of Moths--a collection in four parts, 'Stone,' 'Scale,' 'Company of Moths,' and 'Dream' -- is beautiful, and fierce: 'bright archive, sad merriment,' 'question pursuing question.' Palmer, in this new volume for our darkest times, asks, 'How will you now read in the dark?'
