Play

By Liz Waldner

Poetry. Liz Waldner's eighth book PLAY, perhaps her most experimental since ETYM(BI)OLOGY, reads as a hybrid of poetry and theater in which two (or more) voices dialogue with each other, fluctuating between narrative, Sapphic threads and radiating digressions. "In PLAY are two compelling voices deftly outlined by a lyricism that illuminates their intimate encounters with the actual. Whether lovers, ego/id, or disciple/avatar, these interlocutors assay what is at the heart of being human. Here, all the affliction of an 'Argument withal, within' is not solved, nor salved, but permeated with the succor of true acknowledgment: 'I heard it with my skin'"--Rusty Morrison.
