Description

In Blanchot a couple awaits oblivion like a date gone bad. Here there’s a threeway’s more resolute sense and direction of an ending.

— Laurence A. Rickels

Practically every other image in these poems surprises me, and the various grand statements are genuinely interesting yet skeptical of themselves. There’s a tenderness for the past here with a tone that’s droll, throwaway--a reassuring combination. Grimaldi Donahue’s vulnerability isn’t ironic or self-loathing, but it wants to have fun.

Not “endings” but fragments,
Not “fragments” but effacement
