Poetry. "Bennett has been the avant in avant-garde in the latter
half of the 20th century with his Lost and Found Times, one of the
great 'small press poetry rags' of all time, and then through his
Luna Bisonte Prods press. OLVIDOS ('Memories'; though the word also
and literally means 'things forgotten') is quite possibly his
masterpiece. 339 pages of zany often inarticulate expositions of a
kind of lunar madness that can only be the work of the descendent
of such poets as Vicente Huidobro and Guillaume Apollinaire. There
is most likely something for everyone here from minimalist visual
techniques and zen-like koans to architectured poems such as
'olvidos y fragmentos' with its enigmatic phrase 'lock the boot.'
But then the entire text is one immense sequence of enigmatic and
puzzling dicta, summed up best in his own portmanteau word,
'hablacagada.' This is an important work and should place Bennett
centrally on the map of great, innovative American poets."--Ivan
Arguelles
