About this title

Synopsis:

Karen Mac Cormack's Quirks & Quillets may be her most delightful projects. Her work shows many affinities with language poetry, in its use of disjunctiveness at a withinsentence and betweensentence level, and in her interest in the interrogation of cultural norms and ideologies through the skeptical reworking of "found" materials and genres.

About the Author:

Karen Mac Cormack is the author of eight previous books of poetry, including Quirks & Quillets, Marine Snow and The Tongue Moves Talk. Her work has appeared in such anthologies as The Art of Practice: Fortyfive Contemporary Poets, Out of Everywhere: Ling
