Apologies to those who get this more than once
Writers Forum yesterday published part two of _ON WORD_, a part work
"anthology of contemporary poetry and method" edited by Bob Cobbing and
Lawrence Upton
This part publishes the Canadian poet Meredith Quartermain, the Uruguayan
poet Clemente Padin, the Irish poet resident in USA Gilbert Adair and 2
British poets: Bill Griffiths and the late Alaric Sumner
Each poet contributes poems and statements. (Sumner's statements have been
extracted from the texts of some of his talks.)
Quartermain and Padin contribute selections.
Adair contributes the latest complete section of his ongoing _Jizz Rim_.
(The bulk is available over several publications from Writers Forum; and the
opening 11 pages of the section in progress, which follows directly what is
published here, is an issue of my own _Signal Passed at Danger_)
Griffiths wrote _The Mackerel_ for this publication
Sumner's contribution is the first 10 pages of _LETTERS for dear AUGUSTINE_
(publication of the whole of which is still in preparation) and a black and
white version of _Reification's Program_, a polychrome visually-oriented
text he made for a 1995 Dartington College of Arts Conference
Like part one, part two is 64pp
ISBN for the whole 16 part anthology ISBN 1 84254 000 9
ISBN for this part ISBN 84254 002 5
Price each for parts one and two in UK £3.50 + postage
Direct from New River project, 89a Petherton Road, London N5 2QT (send
return postage if you are not sending full payment please) or from your
bookseller.
Those outside UK who do not have a sterling bank account have a problem of
course: bank charges knock the cost up massively. Perhaps some kind
bookseller will import it for you, especially if she / he can be offered a
number of subscribers. Talk to them
Part three is scheduled for late September 2001
