A Book of Concealments

Poetry. "A BOOK OF CONCEALMENTS is a followup to an earlier hundred-poem work, A BOOK OF WITNESS, with some notable changes in strategy and composition. In A BOOK OF WITNESS I was concentrating on the rescue of the first-person voice as our principal instrument of witness.By contrast the twenty-five poems in this first installment of A BOOK OF CONCEALMENTS suppress the witnessing "I" but draw from my accumulated works by collaging as italicized inserts small fragments of poems already written & published"-Jerome Rotherberg from Author's Not. Handstitched chapbook.
