Nicholas Pesquès

Overyellow, an Installation (eBook, PDF)

Übersetzer: Swensen, Cole

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is a book about a color-the vivid, explosive yellow of the English broom that blooms outrageously, uproariously, all over the mountain that dominates the view from Nicolas Pesquès' window. In this loping long poem, Pesquès views this color as installation art-as if the word YELLOW were written in enormous letters covering the hillside. It's an installation that brings issues of language to the fore, offering an occasion for the writer to juggle the immediate presence of color with the more mitigated presence created by language.
