With linguistic wit and complexity, his poetry carries the reader through the historical developments of the alphabet. He pries open letters and words to play with both their immediate meaning and the possibilities within the words themselves, creating surprises as he explores spelling, sound, syntax, and pronunciation. After reading Cooley's abecedarium you'll never look at language the same way. Lovers of experimental poetry as well as those interested in linguistic play or the history of language will relish the rapid-fire shifts and musicality of Cooley's newest collection of poetry. 410 0$aRobert Kroetsch series. 606 $aCanadian poetry 610 $aCanadian Literature. 610 $aPoetry. 615 0$aCanadian poetry. 676 $a811.008 700 $aCooley$b Dennis$f1944-$01626732 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822553903321 996 $aAbecedarium$93962931 997 $aUNINA
