Description
Fred Moten's latest poetry collection, Perennial Fashion Presence Falling, presents a unique blend of criticism and poetry. This work is reminiscent of his previous publications, such as The Feel Trio and All That Beauty, which showcased his innovative "shaped prose" style. The poems in this collection explore the relationship between polyphony and paronomasia, delving into the intricacies of language and meaning. Moten's approach to the sublime is characterized by a fascination with the intermediary space of microtonal thought, inviting readers to engage with the complexities of the present moment. Through his characteristic curiosity and etymological investigations, Moten creates a sense of quantum uncertainty, where poems beget poems and the past informs the future. This collection offers a rich and thought-provoking reading experience for those interested in poetry and critical theory.
