Green River Road is Michael Levell's first chapbook published by a press other than his own home printer. The poems use the English language as blocks arranged through chance operations and intention and then rearranged through editing and erasure to make these startling and insightful works echo with both reference and the individuality of the poet. The sources used for original material combined with personal writing from the author bring incredible results with each turn of the page and further the conversation of both the sources being used and the poet's own mind to create something that is in between and alive on its own. At once strange and at the same time highly readable, Green River Road is a chapbook that can be experienced again and again with new results. Using traditional composition, cut-up, divination, selection, chance and collage techniques, these poems go beyond the intention of the poet, so when the reader creates the work anew with each read, the life of the poems are further enriched.
