LURE Format: Paperback

Heller unfolds LURE, as the counterweight to Glare. To the unrelenting, harsh, indiscriminate reduction of the human spirit to a mere consumption machine.

Extending Hinge's dedication to Term Exfoliation, this volume fleshifies lure, gloom, abeyance, maroon, lessness, nugatory, shadow, & glance, among others; Hinges to Cézanne's drawings, dialogues with Heidegger, introduces the modules ‘when, '‘3fers,' & ‘YOU;' & concludes with an interview by D.C. Wojciech.

In the sluice-shimmer-trapeze of circumference collapse, Lure seduces, courts, parasols wafts of jasmine & ylang-ylang, tango-trots through the hushed halls of a lambent simoom. Uncontaminated by segmentation, Lure
is the breeze-bristling benevolent.

Hinge continues..............The next chapter of Hinge Theory Poetics-At the forefront of linguistically based poetic theory.
