Breccia is an inspired grouping of poems from celebrated poet,
translator, anthologist and essayist, Pierre Joris. "[Breccia] is a
showcase for poems from roughly twenty, sometimes rather fugitive,
volumes, written and published during a time when Joris was living
as a kind of postmodern nomad. One of the virtues of this
in-gathering of work is that it makes clear the extent to which a
sense of 'nomadism' - of being intensely in a place because one
knows one has already left it - marks Joris' poetry.... The sense
of immediacy in his work is striking. But the images of weather and
shifting light and shade that give so many poems their climate of
feeling, always play against a complex flow of conceptual activity
and the possibility, but only the possibility, of archetypal
permanence..." - Don Byrd
