"Read Pierre Joris' POASIS. Read it for its humor, the witty elasticity of languages, its physical, philosophical delight in words and their reverberations. Read it for its depth and breadth....Playfully, Pierre Joris takes words very seriously. This book convinces me...that writing is indispensable."
Jen Hofer, Rain Taxi Review of Books, Fall 2001

Poasis: Selected Poems, 1986-1999 (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780819564351) Joris, Pierre Quantity Available: 10
Book Description: University Press of New England, United States, 2001. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 152 x 235 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery ***** Print on Demand *****. Pierre Joris's poems are characterized by an arresting mix of passion and intellect, by what Pound called "language charged with meaning." For Joris, a language is always a second language, and his poetry takes as its main concern the question of marginality and exile. He is unique in being an American poet comfortable in three languages, and his work is filled with a dynamic language play, cross-linguistic puns, and themes of speculation on language, translation, and nomadism. Poasis, Joris's first major publication in the United States, highlights his work since the mid-1980s.
