Poetry is composed of sensation: this Deleuze-Guattarian assertion
is central to a Deleuzian poetics that provides a fruitful approach
to the difficulties of innovative literature and poetry in
particular. This book is a clear exposition of a Deleuzian approach
to literature that treats the literary text, particularly the poem,
as something that exists in its own right. As such poetry is
presented as something that must be encountered, actualised and
embodied by readers on its own terms, rather than providing access
to something else that it represents. Far from being a hermetic,
ivory tower encounter, the Deleuzian poetics of experimental
reading reveals sensational significances that are not only
philosophical and social but political. What's more, through a
close examination of a range of contemporary innovative poems, Jon
Clay suggests that a Deleuzian way of reading offers a firm
purchase on notoriously difficult texts, providing concepts and a
language that aids their understanding.
