Debtor's Prison
Debtor's Prison
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
This book is the first collaboration bewteen poet/novelist Lewis Warsh and video/visual artist Julie Harrison, in which skewed and closely-croppped black-and-white video stills from Harrison's primitive-style documentary and performance tapes of the 1970s are paired with stark lines of text written in response by Warsh.
"Lewis Warsh's thought is not circular, but spiral, in fact-and is, in this way, totally appropriate for the times. All propositions turn back on themselves; the image of truth is uncertainty; and all that we know about a thing is limited to our knowledge of its limits. The sense that this isn't quite fair, or right, is what gives his thought, his work, its moral power, and humor." -Fanny Howe
