About this product
Product Information
language I'll say yes from the top of my rib cage language will you come out and unearth the salt the certitude Between the verbs quivering and streaming, White Piano unfolds its variations like musical scores. A play of resonance between pronouns and persons, freely percussive between prose and poetry, and narrating a constellation of questions, White Piano offers readers a 'language that cultivates its own craters of fire and savoir-vie.' 'At once achingly aware of mortality and hell-bound in its determination to press forward, change, and grow, White Piano is as brave as it is linguistically rich.' - Quill & Quire '[Brossard] writes with a poetic intensity that burns select lines and sometimes entire paragraphs into the reader's mind.' - Montreal Gazette

"White Piano is another masterful collaboration [by Brossard and translators Robert Majzels and Ern Moure], the language by turns powerful and quivering . . . and characterized by a transformative vitality ... At once achingly aware of mortality and hell-bound in its determination to press forward, change, and grow, White Piano is as brave as it is linguistically rich." - Quill and Quire "Brossard conflates writing with lovemaking - 'at the hour of bedsheets or ink' - the poems forming a grammar of desire, like a diagrammed body . . . The translation Brossard is obsessed with here is of a different sort, the translation of bodily memories, resurrecting old loves. For Brossard words cover the wounds, 'colours that precede / the iodine of words / torment of punctuation.'" - The Believer (on Notebook of Roses and Civilization ) "[Brossard] writes with a poetic intensity that burns select lines and sometimes entire paragraphs into the reader's mind." - Montreal Gazette, "White Piano is another masterful collaboration [by Brossard and translators Robert Majzels and Erín Moure], the language by turns powerful and quivering . . . and characterized by a transformative vitality ...

Item as described, good price, well packaged, arrived slightly later than hoped (not in time for Christmas ) but the order was placed in a very busy shipping period. No issue with the seller’s speed of response and sending the item. Great seller!

The seller is one of the best there is - high quality books, reasonable prices, securely packaged.
I do, however, recommend some changes to their shipping - they show a shipper (SortHub) on eBay, but the tracking # they email is for a different carrier. It’s difficult to know where my purchase is.
This time, it was delivered a week late. In the grand scheme of things not a big deal. But it shouldn’t be this difficult to accurately track my purchase.
