Tale Light

New & Selected Poems 1984-2009

Karen Mac Cormack

Published by West House & BookThug 2010

Edition 1st

Format Second-hand books   Condition Mint

Wrappers. Tale Light draws from previously uncollected poems, revisions of published earlier poetry from Nothing By Mouth, Straw Cupid, Quill Driver, Quirks & Quillets, Marine Snow, The Tongue Moves Talk, At Issue, Vanity Release, and a rich selection of new work. For the first time the strategies Mac Cormack develops for each separate project (her often witty and ludic explorations, wherein she confronts the habitual in language and representation) are brought together for the reader as a collective textual experience.

The Tongue Moves Talk

Karen Mac Cormack

Published by Chax press / West House Books 1997

Edition 1st

Format Second-hand books   Condition Mint

Poems. ‘Sense is made and remade word for word in Karen Mac Cormack’s The Tongue Moves Talk. Exquisitely refractory, incessantly modulating, sumptuously uttering, these poems attain a state of aesthetic grace without recourse to hooks or props.’ (Charles Bernstein) ‘Ablaze with boisterous verbal precisions. There’s no end to her range, her textual mobility. She is meticulous, compelling, incessant, unexpected. Just clap.’ (Maggie O’Sullivan).
