Cornell: A Circuition around his Circumambulation

David Kennedy

Published by West House Books 2001

Edition 1st

Format Second-hand books   Condition Mint

A homage to a major twentieth-century artist. Joseph Cornell is best known for his boxes in which seemingly unrelated objects gathered on walks through New York were fashioned into aviaries, pharmacies, hotels and penny arcades. In a series of prose meditations David Kennedy considers the boxes as structures of feeling and sets Cornell’s work in the context of other art and poetry inspired by city walking.

Eight Excursions

David Kennedy, Rupert Loydell

Published by Cherry on the Top 2003

Edition 1st thus

Format Second-hand books   Condition Mint

Until I forget it again, / I understand everything ... So begins the first of eight tours of a semi-fictional zone, a space of overlapping subjectivities and shared fantasies and nightmares, which comes into being whenever the two poets convene in the act of collaboration.

The London

David Rees

Published by West House Books & Gratton Street Irregulars 1997

Edition 1st

Format Second-hand books   Condition Mint

41 4-line poems tracking a journey through the City of London. ‘As London festers on, easier now to marvel at than visit, the intelligent poet picks on patches to squeeze, and to pinch with shocked and satisfied rhymes; scars, sacs, rust, light, old idea-stains. There’s one been going about and does a certain operation. Good to see parts of that city pinned in, with no chances for evasion. These brick-sized graffiti.’ (Roy Fisher).
