Synopsis

A twenty-first century trickster, Ken Jones, in "Unutterable Blunders and Palace Disasters," makes music from the rubbish left after our rebellions against culture and epistemology. His pastiches are full of justice and play. And song. And that's more than enough. Alan Ainsworth, Chair, English, Houston Community College Central
