Paolo Javier's poetry has received glowing press coverage in The New Yorker, Publishers Weekly, and The Comics Journal. Critics lavishly compare him to luminaries such as bpNichols, Lynda Barry, and Grant Morrison. His proclivity for comics also aligns him with poet-illustrators Bianca Stone and Sommer Browning. Language and imagery swirl around each other and synthesize in surprising and evolving fashion. Maybe it will take the form of an occult diary of Hosni Mubarak as he attempts to invoke the ancient terror of Cthulhu. Some poems seem to run low on toner, others switch modes and fonts as they swerve around personal and political themes. This eclectic work goes all over the place yet returns consistently to the centrality of perception. Nobody else looks at the world like Paolo Javier, aka the Leche Flâ neur, and his book will take you on a ride unlike any other.
