VIII STEPPING POEMS \u0026amp; OTHER PIECES brings together ten years of work from Irish poet, critic and art practitioner Fergal Gaynor. This is poetry in the modernist tradition, often in experimental forms. The \u003cem\u003eStepping Poems\u003c\/em\u003e make apparent a surrounding silence or inarticulacy; the terse, gnomic triads of the \u003cem\u003eRunes\u003c\/em\u003e are based on Old Irish riddling forms. Through these forms recurring themes are refracted: location, especially Gaynor's native Cork City and Munster region; the presence of history, often as fossilized remains, in \u003cem\u003eXI Pieces for Austria-Hungary\u003c\/em\u003e; and the contemporary, as something alien and urgent, the subject of science fiction. VIII STEPPING POEMS \u0026amp; OTHER PIECES is at once learned and passionate, impersonal and highly individual.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Miami University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781450737104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 5.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Fergal Gaynor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52801129087157,"sku":"9781450737104","price":12.75,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/viii-stepping-poems-other-pieces-miami-university-press-poetry-series-9781450737104","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
