Full Description
Joshua Beckman's new book, A Guide for Making Fragments from Diaries, gathers poems found or made in various forms-chapter summaries of non-existent books, body poems, an assemblage of his mother's remarks while painting his portrait, lists of thoughts and things (one of all the uninvited animals and insects who entered his house over the course of a year!). The book culminates with the guide, including light instructions toward finding fragments within a notebook or diary.
