Sinopsis

Selected Poems 1988-2016 focuses on Alan Halsey&rsquo,s longer poems from the period and brings together the previously scattered sequences Ars Poetica, Tracks & Tracts of the Lizopard, A Looking-Glass for Logoclasts and Latin for Today: The Sequel. It includes some revised and expanded texts such as the John Dee libretto Loagaeth alongside poems written since Rampant Inertia, published by Shearsman in 2014.á&ldquo,Halsey exhilaratingly explores language and ideology, running different jargons and discourses together in a poetry of passionate and stoical resistance.&rdquo,á&mdash,Robert Potts, The Guardian&ldquo,He continues to create a kabbalah of cultural signs, a dictionary of linguistic possibilities, a stylish verbal music, in his essential role as courteous gadfly.&rdquo,á&mdash,Paul Merchant, Chicago Review&ldquo,Halsey&rsquo,s poems come in such variety, from very straightforward, personal-voice addresses to the most recondite word salads &ndash, like a dense portable anthology from a rich and complex literary canon that simultaneously overlaps with but is fundamentally shifted from the recognizable &lsquo,canon&rsquo,.&rdquo,á&mdash,Mark Scroggins, Culture Industry
