Entanglements: Threads Woven from History, Memory and the Body

Nothing less than a journey behind the scenes of her own creative process, Leah Souffrant's Entanglements embraces the contingency, incompletion, difficulty, and uncertainty of artistic practice. At once intellectually rigorous and winningly immediate, Souffrant's genre-busting collection conveys the fundamental "ways we come to know and create the world we inhabit and experience, both as experience and through experience." Informed by her wide and deep knowledge of critical theory, aesthetics, and history - and by the fierce and compassionate spirit of feminist dissent - Souffrant includes the reader in her dynamic and emancipatory "poetics of non-delimiting." Entanglements is Souffrant's second book.   Leah Souffrant makes art, poetry, essays, and criticism. She is the author of Plain Burned Things: A Poetics of the Unsayable. Her recent work can be found in Bone Bouquet, Interim: Poetry and Poetics, Jacket2, Poet Lore, Formes Poétique Contemporaines, Seisma Magazine's Studio Lab Sho
