Description
The Brimstone Boat is a poem by Will Alexander, commemorating the life and writings of Lamantia. Published in 2011, this work marks a significant moment in the poet's career, as he charts Lamantia's life across a Renaissance globe.
Through an automatistically extended poem, Alexander passes on the torch to Lamantia, who is hailed as America's greatest living surrealist poet at the time. This volume features a range of poetic works, including the title piece, three shorter poems, and four essays, all accompanied by illustrations and photographs.
Featuring works by Marie Wilson and pencil drawings by Will Alexander, this book offers a unique insight into the world of surrealist poetry and the poet's own creative process. With its diverse range of content, The Brimstone Boat is an interesting addition to any poetry collection.
