But Now

But Now is Phyllis Perlstone's artistic statement of intent. In this book, Perlstone employs her characteristic fractured syntax and extraordinary visual focus, leaving you 'dizzy with seeing'. Unusually, though, she allows us to draw near her, in her present and her past, as she makes us a personal and political reckoning.

'what is familial  quietly

quivers in art

time stalls'
