Until now, there has been no single published volume where one might encounter Pierre Joris' writings in all its variegated forms and styles. This reader contains a diverse selection of his work spanning more than a half-century across poetry and prose, poetics, translation and collaboration.
Working at the tenuous thresholds of writing and translation, Joris navigates the seismic ebb and tide of languages' winding relations in wide constellations of intersecting streams. A translingual writer, Joris cares for and nurtures, nourishes and tends to those precarious word-worlds surrounding us on all sides, which are conditioned by a constant and ongoing translingual flux: the crisscrossing languages that flicker before our ears if only we are listening for them.
Published following the one year anniversary of his death, In Between, Keep Moving: The Pierre Joris Reader stands as an opening toward the continuing life of Joris' work.
