Wild Honey Press is delighted to announce the publication of _Citation
Suite_ by Robert Archambeau. It's a beautiful book which takes quotations
from Virginia Woolf, Plato, E.M. Forster, Naipaul, Richard Rorty, Shelley,
William Morris and Nathaniel Tarn and weaves them with other material in a
meditation on culture and legibility. For a book written with such a light
touch it has a remarkable way of coming back into mind. Insights,
witticisms, lovely phrases.
I'm not sure how to put this but it acts on the boundary between the well
innovative and the mainstream in very interesting ways. Yes it is
consciously constructed, works with constraints, undermines the monogrammed
metaphor. But there is a joyfully lyrical presence, not so much in the
diction or anything obviously nail-downable, but in the movement from
feeling to idea.
Available from Wild Honey Books, 16a Ballyman Rd., Bray, Co. Wicklow, Ireland,
e-mail [log in to unmask] as above.
Price £3.50 (U.K. & Ireland) or $5 (bills, no checks) or in exchange for a
poem or indeed any piece of writing in any form.
Best to all,
Randolph Healy.
