A visually and lyrically beautiful debut that celebrates the landscapes we take for granted. Harbour Grids is a long poem in four parts that investigates ideas of community and belonging. Beginning as a meditation on the surface of New York Harbor the poem radiates outward through issues of labour location history belonging and subjectivity. How do we experience our complex relations to the world we live in Harbour Grids seeks to answer this question by combining Stephen Ratcliffes attention to daily observation and formal repetition Lyn Hejinianampamp8217s investigations of the linguistic structures Larry Eignerampamp8217s textural sense of language and compositional space of the page and Juliana Spahrampamp8217s ethical attention to the ways we inhabit the world.
