Feeling Upon Arrival

Inspired by the potential of space to order experiences of time and desire, the language of the poetry in "Feeling Upon Arrival" turns between orienting device and sensual index. Characters emerge and disperse as gestures across a queered and somatic geography in pursuit of the bodies that present landscapes deny.

Praise for this book

The precision of language in 'Feeling Upon Arrival' seems to feint, only to land the blow elsewhere. In this text, the language of theory takes on the character of a metaphysics — I think that's what the feint is about. It is a good and hungry almost finding itself in the speaker's body.
