Sinopsis

Andrew Brenza&rsquo,s Spool is a reckoning of our diminished natural world through the register of a disjointed, smeared, and unraveling poetics.á Consisting of a series of breathless lyrical and concrete poems, Spool strives to represent both nature&rsquo,s beauty as well as the tragedy of its destruction, a destruction which is, ultimately, the destruction of ourselves. But the book does not descend entirely into despair, for the author&rsquo,s novel approaches to poetic expression suggest an alternative way that humanity might imagine its place in the world, a way that fundamentally incorporates and enacts humanity&rsquo,s vital connection to nature. It is through this alternative poetics that Brenza offers hope, albeit a difficult one, since it asks us not just to change the way we think about nature, but the way we think about and within language itself.á
