by Lynn Emanuel (Author)
A Poetic Autobiography--Intimate, Sorrowful, and Funny
Lynn Emanuel's sixth collection of poetry is not sequential or straightforward. It has no conventional chronology, no master narrative. Instead, it is a life story, with all the chaos and messiness entailed therein. Transcript of the Disappearance, Exact and Diminishing is a commotion of grief and wit, audacious images, poems, and paragraphs. It explores and centers on the possibilities and limitations of art in the face of disappearances of many kinds, including the disappearance that is most personal--the poet's own.Author Biography
