A new collection of essays and poetry from the poet Library Journal called "one of the most unique and powerful writers at the forefront of American literature."The Public World / Syntactically Impermanence is a brilliant consideration of the strategies of poetry, and the similarities between early Zen thought and some American avant-garde writings that counter the "language of determinateness," or conventions of perception. The theme of the essays is poetic language which critiques itself, recognizing its own conceptual formations of private and social, the form or syntax of the language being "syntactically impermanence."

She argues that poetry is perhaps most deeply political when it is an expression that is not recognized or readily comprehensible as discourse.
