Letters to Unfinished J.

Winner of the 2001 Gertrude Stein Award, Letters to Unfinished J., selected by Dennis Phillips, reveals a fresh writing infused with a particularly American tone. These short, numbered prose poems, often "twirl on the tongue, [as] most active verbs [are] replenished by something garni." Here place and being in the American space surrounds the poems.
