The Refusal of Suitors draws on Penelope and her loom to engage the landscapes, wants, forms, and ultimately the repetitions and variations of contemporary urban life. Through varying styles, voices, and layouts, these poems move collectively with a sonic force, the pure acoustics of declaratives, through a night that begins / with our falling asleep, the wet paragraph that he aspirates, with a visionary amalgam of phenomenon and symbol. From long-lined, romantic odes to tight, pictorial meditations akin to classical Asian poetry--from the jocular to the reposed to the amorous to the despondent--these are poems that are never satisfied, that relish the sweet chorea of the longest day.
