Edge and Fold, by Paul Hoover Edge and Fold
Paul Hoover


Read ExcerptsOrdering Info

Edge and Fold comes in short couplets that have the pith of aphorisms, but dismantle any expectation of closure. They push thinking over the edge into the folds of all my minds. In this amazing plural space (tenuously tethered to the white of the page) subtle, discriminating intelligences unfold lyric intensity into question, wonder, mystery.

the sound is in the wood
        writing its disturbance
as deeply as it can
        this is called music

Edge and Fold confirms Paul Hoover as one of our important poets.
