C.S. Giscombe writes, \"The first line of Roxi Power's incredible burst of poems lays down the law with one hand and sets things in motion with another-that is, she writes, as if to remark on the coming noise made by fire, death, love, 'A roll of presence infiltrated by scratch and origin.'\" Power's elegies and ecopoems reconstruct new linguistic meeting grounds for ancestors, where impermanence elicits both grief and joy. Through call and response improvisations, Power invokes Miles Davis' \"Saeta,\" Patti Smith's \"strange music,\" and the impossibility of Cage's silence, as counterbalances to forgetting: \"frottage rubbed back into likeness enough to help us see what is no longer there.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Roxi Power\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1599241439\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781599241432\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Finishing Line Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/18\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 106\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Roxi Power","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48485641814271,"sku":"9781599241432","price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a0c1ce2c-4fd1-4426-a471-05e31de5fe1f.jpg?v=1778050584","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-songs-that-objects-would-roxi-power-9781599241432","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
