Not Even Rabbits Go Down This Hole by George Quasha (Spuyten Duyvil, paperback)
Publication Date: February 3, 2020
Publisher Marketing: George Quasha’s “preverbs” do what Frank O’Hara said about Abstract Expressionist paintings: they leave “the event of [their] passage.” In a continuum of lines, or line clusters, they move down the page like bright fractals…. These are poems that turn their own originality inside out. They write on the veil they lift and dance a step or two beyond our reach.––William Benton, author of Backlit, Birds, and Madly: A Novel
Like a festive tempest of flitting iterates, Quasha’s Preverbs provide a lexical elixir— An infinitely textatic reverberance of aphoristic euphoria.––Adeena Karasick, author of Checking In, The House That Hijack Built and This Poem
