Arthur Sze is one of the most intensely musical and visionary poets
writing today The Redshifting Web spans more than a quarter-century
of published work and makes available for the first time the full
range of his poetry. It includes selections from five previous
books (including the entirety of Archipelago, Dazzled, and River,
River), as well as a generous selection of new poems.
Through a startling juxtaposition of images and ideas, Sze
reveals the interconnectedness, the interdependency of things and
ideas, always with an ear attuned to pitch and cadence. In his
poetry, the past is ever-present, so that one finds Zen monks
carrying fax machines, Hopi kachina dolls alongside Japanese
pachinko parlors, plastic bowls among relics of the Han dynasty,
the complexities of contemporary culture revealed as an elegant
fabric woven of many threads.
