Marrin's first book is a requiem, a gorgeous and strange diorama of beauty and sorrow. A true cabinet of curiosities, these poems usher in a seemingly endless list of what's been lost: Marrin, along with her parade of ghosts of dead counters, explorers, and collectors, chronicles our demise. 'Come into my diorama, ' Marrin whispers, 'Everything's life size. \/ Everything's as it should be in the wild.' \u003cem\u003eIncognitum\u003c\/em\u003e is an extended fever, an archive, a getting-it-all-down-before the world is gone.\" -Cynthia Cruz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Incognitum inhabits several worlds at once-from the subterranean past, to the surface of our present condition-and affirms with a dexterous line poetry's ability to synthesize a limitless breadth of information.

The violence of taxidermy, bone-dusting, the pinning of wings begins to feel like the tenderest love as things are caught and held in a seeming sort of life, while 'the great pupa \/ of loss \/\/ stirs in its jar.' Fossils and fresh asphalt accrue in Marrin's racked notebook that tries to create a scale for large-scale destruction...\" -Kate Colby\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aubrie Marrin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1848613970\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848613973\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.19d","brand":"Aubrie Marrin","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48440076239103,"sku":"9781848613973","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7486c408-a34f-4b6c-bea4-5190f66e953d.jpg?v=1777180276","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/incognitum-aubrie-marrin-9781848613973","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
