Poetry. CONFLICT interweaves ghosts, bad communication, the uncanny and the archival, to create a collection of poems that breaks down remembrance into abandoned historic markers, jet fuel, keening, or teeth. What you are given (this is a gift) is an insistent refusal to silence or shift. In exchange, the reader faces the impossibility of erasure and a gritty resistance. CONFLICT swells with the fractures and lacings in language, motion, architecture, and emotion; between individuals, systems, and mechanical silences. "Charged with high frequency syntax, kinetic with sonic flux, McNair's CONFLICT sends out a spirited transmission. Accruing a fervor and defiance, her poems push through the static of disjuncture--and connect with strength and spark. Her signal is crystal-filtered: fiat fiat fiat."--Sandra Ridley
