This book examines Uncreative Writing-the catch-all term to
describe Neo-Conceptualism, Flarf and related avant-garde movements
in contemporary North American poetry-against a decade of
controversy. David Kaufman analyzes texts by Kenneth Goldsmith,
Vanessa Place, Robert Fitterman, Ara Shirinyan, Craig Dworkin, Dan
Farrell and Katie Degentesh to demonstrate that Uncreative Writing
is not a revolutionary break from lyric tradition as its proponents
claim. Nor is it a racist, reactionary capitulation to
neo-liberalism as its detractors argue. Rather, this monograph
shows that Uncreative Writing's real innovations and weaknesses
become clearest when read in the context of the very lyric that it
claims to have left behind.
