Poetry. Art. THE PIRATE WHO DOES NOT KNOW THE VALUE OF PI, PART I is a nine-poem, eleven-image extravaganza about communication challenges affecting the relationship between a pirate and a parrot. Can they work it out? Never mind them! Can you work it out? Do you like visuals made of parts whose some is less than the all? Can you handle multilevel multilingual punning and mesostic action that keeps hitting below the borscht belt? The Eugenes—past collaborators on INFINITE RECURSOR and THE LIFE AND OPINIONS OF DJ SPINOZA—have again got your number.

About the Author:
Eugene Ostashevsky is a Russian-American poet and translator. As poet, he is the author of ITERATURE (2005) and THE LIFE AND OPINIONS OF DJ SPINOZA (2008), both published by Ugly Duckling Presse, as well as a dozen chapbooks. As translator who focuses on Russian underground literature of the 1930s, he bears the main responsibility for OBERIU: An Anthology of Russian Absurdism and Alexander Vvedensky's An Invitation for Me to Think. His most recent award, the 2013 DAAD Artists-in-Berlin fellowship, is letting him focus on the practice and theory of multilingualism in poetry.
Eugene Timerman is a graphic artist and designer based in New York City. He is the author, with Anne Timerman, of The Elements and The Books of Parts, two albums that analyze and synthesize form through serial composition and sdvig. The same visual strategies appear in THE PIRATE WHO DOES NOT KNOW THE VALUE OF PI, PART I and other collaborations with Eugene Ostashevsky. Timerman has carried out projects for Phaidon, SF MoMA, and the Cooper-Hewitt Museum. He occasionally teaches at the Strelka Institute in Moscow.
