The final installment of Romantic Words, George Bowering’s book-length “poetic exchange” with Artie Gold’s long-lost manuscript of the same title. Ken Norris, in an essay excerpted within the chapbook, describes the project: “Artie gets the first page and George get the second. And what George has going on his page is many things. Sometimes it is commentary. Sometimes it is revision. Sometimes it is translation. Sometimes it is a wholesale rewrite. Sometimes it is a moment in awe.”
Apt. 9 previously published Romantic Wounds, a selection from the same project. Other excerpts have been published (or will be published) by Proper Tales Press, Nose in Book Publishing, Laurel Reed Books, Turret House Press, and above/ground press.
