Echolocation

By Evelyn Reilly

In her provocatively innovative and innovatively provocative poetry collection, Echolocation, Evelyn Reilly sounds out a techno-saturated world that perhaps we already occupy. She refuses easy answers or evaluations: animals are processed into food in brutal ways and the boundaries of person- and species-hood are expanded and exploded, while new forms of life and collectivity emerge. Bodies, of organism and of text, are ever-shifting, accumulating new modes of signification and habitation. The text becomes a habitat. Ever resourceful, Reilly interrogates " the natural" without discarding it. Instead, she ushers in an contemporary poetics that refuses hierarchical differentiation between the ecological and the technological; neither is demon or savior.
