Description
"These sentences—they—will begin having already been sentences somewhere else, and this will mark their afterlife, and this will be their debut." So begins Renee Gladman's latest interdisciplinary project, Plans for Sentences.
A tour de force of dizzying brilliance, Gladman's book blurs the distinctions between text and image, recognising that drawing can be a form of writing, and vice versa: a generative act in which the two practices not only inform each other but propel each other into futures.
In this radical way, drawing and writing become part of a limitless loop of energy, unearthing fertile possibilities for the ways we think about poetry.
If Gladman ascribes to any particular type of poetics, here in Plans for Sentences, we are sure to find that it is robustly grounded in a poetics of infinite language.
