Description: Talking by David Antin Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description — Talking bridges the stylistic gap between David Antin's early experimental poems and the "talk pieces" for which he is most well-known. Combining one poem with two improvisations and his first published talk-poem, Talking is a unique book that cannot be classified as solely poetry, fiction or criticism. Infusing the lyricism of poetry with the compelling pull of the spoken voice, this collection is a testament to David Antin's reputation as one of the most influential artists of the contemporary era. Publisher Description "If someone came up and started talking a poem at you how would you know it was a poem?" So begins David Antins Talking, a collection of writings that defy classification. Combining a passion for storytelling and improvisation with a unique sensitivity to the relationship between verbal and written language, Antin creates a work that is hilarious and intelligent, making use of techniques of poetry, fiction, theater, autobiography, and cultural criticism. Originally published in 1972, the four pieces collected here center on political, social, and artistic concerns that were both timely and ahead of their time. In them we see Antins real poetic achievement: the creation of new artistic forms. Author Biography David Antin is Professor Emeritus of Visual Arts at the University of California, San Diego. Among his most recent books are "A Conversation with David Antin "(2002), "what it means to be avant-garde "(1993), and "Selected Poems: 1963-1973 "(1991).
