Full Description
Peter Jaeger's beautiful new work was written while travelling in Japan, India, Canada, Italy and England, but these intense lyrics are more than "travel poems", they explore body awareness and consciousness within language itself - an interplay that becomes more evident through Jaeger's unfamiliar surroundings and his exploration of meditation and yoga.
These poems express the temporary, impermanent character of perception by re-negotiating the traditional, voice-based lyric, making use of collage as well as dramatic shifts in syntax and narrative. Prop is a book written in motion, and its quick changes in tone and imagery present the dynamism and impermanence of the world.
