Composed in the direct, accessible, consciousness-piercing style, Mercury comprises a group of interlocking long poems that speak to the substance and essence of what is said, transmitted, transacted, communicated between persons. Reines proposes that substance and essence are opposites and explores this in contexts including commercial cinema and internet porn.
This astonishing young poet is surely destined to be one of the crucial voices of her generation.--Michael Silverblatt, BookwormI applaud Ariana's desire to be disrespectful, lewd, broken, narcissistic--all the unforgivable female crimes which if instead were committed by humans would just be called 'hot.' She does it here and she does it WRONG, cheer, cheer.--Eileen Myles, Poetry Foundation
