Beskrivning
"Alphabetic dismantling, syntactic play, essaying words backwards and 4words (as she might say), Christakos manifests forensic clarity and telegraphic fortitude in this unsettling work."--Rachel Blau DuPlessis Revelling in the value of social polyphony from Walt Whitman's "Song of Myself," Multitudes looks at its contemporary theatres of Facebook and Twitter, post-riot police surveillance, protest culture and poetry itself. With wit, perceptiveness and her trademark linguistic sonar, Margaret Christakos keenly examines intimacies and banishments, as well as intergenerational grief, self-display and social hope.

"Alphabetic dismantling, syntactic play, essaying words backwards and 4words (as she might say), Christakos manifests forensice clarity and telegraphic fortitude in this unsettling work." -- Rachel Blau DuPlessis [on Multitudes] "Stirring both emotionally and in a bold experimentalism." -- Winnipeg Free Press [on What Stirs] "Is Margaret Christakos the love child of David Cronenberg and the queen of the confessional poets, Sharon Olds? ... Much of this writing shocks for its originality." -- Georgia Straight [on Sooner]
