Her Various Scalpels Paperback / softback
by Sophie Mayer
Paperback / softback
Description
These poems usher you into an intimate cinema where Gertrude Stein kisses Patti Smith.
Where a bird steps through the screen and becomes a girl, where a girl moulds a cock and becomes a city, where a city striated with cinema becomes a glacier, where a glacier sits in the red velvet seats and sees herself as a star.
In her mind imagined films take flight, cast from salt and swans.
Stepping out of the darkness, she trips into blackouts over lines scratched into celluloid.
Wrought as and from fragments-coinages, echoes, attitudes, glimpses-these poems collage new ways (or waves) of seeing.
