Synopsis

Nathan Spoon brings the complications of consciousness into view. The question that concerns poets with disabilities—real ones as opposed to the metaphorical—is how do we evolve in this light? In the meantime, the poems in <i>The Importance of Being-Feeble Minded </i>have a toughness about them as if perhaps, the epistemology of disability is a street fight. As readers, we like the fight. I’m reminded of Ernesto Cardinal’s utterance: “Life is Subversive.”
