The volume focuses on selections from McCaffery's major texts, including \u003ci\u003eThe Black Debt\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eTheory of Sediment\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Cheat of Words\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eSlightly Left of Thinking\u003c\/i\u003e, but also features a substantial number of previously ungathered poems. As playful as they are cerebral, McCaffery's poems stage an incessant departure from conventional lyrical and narrative methods of making meaning. For those encountering McCaffery's work for the first time as well as for those who have followed the twists and turns of his astonishingly heterogeneous poetic trajectory over the past four decades--this volume is essential reading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wilfrid Laurier University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/26\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781554581887\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.90w x 0.20d","brand":"Steve McCaffery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51616338673845,"sku":"9781554581887","price":18.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_8abdfeb9-78c5-4d45-9d49-705d5d72c213.jpg?v=1756189042","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/verse-and-worse-selected-and-new-poems-of-steve-mccaffery-1989-2009-9781554581887","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
