The Form of Our Uncertainty: A Tribute to Gil Ott (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780925904324)

From Kristen Gallagher's introduction to The Form of Our Uncertainty:

"Evidence of Gil Ott's proficiencies have been left in spray paint and street-corner soliloquies, as well as in his work of editing and publishing the poetry and prose of writers practicing diverse tactics and politics. One thing has concerned him consistently: 'the struggle to articulate.' His acceptance of uncertainty and his history of stirring things up in status-quo-ville are the defining qualities of Gil Ott's poetics. One thing Gil says he has often reacted against is the assumption that 'people seek out order'

Perhaps much of Gil's work gets its distinctive edge from his ability to hold tensions and attune to complex, often contradictory senses. In all of Gil's work one can find a certain pleasure he refers to as 'the satisfaction of articulation' - a presence of hearing and saying, of finding relation through more relation."
