Synopsis
Poetry. Translated from the French by Cole Swensen. The word "oxo" means, literally, "a bouillon cube," and this book of fine, spare poetry becomes a conceptual cube-- seven sections of seven poems, with each poem composed of seven lines of seven syllables. At the same time, the inclusion of Suzzan Doppelt's seven photographs render it a kind of "flip-book" of verbal and visual snapshots of life in contemporary Paris: its tourists, its homeless, its politicians, its TV news, its pigeons, and its poetry. "studied or not the gesture/ with which she laces up her/ naked back and calves baked on/ the beach evokes the damsel/ victim across the railroad/ tracks of thes silent slap with/ a stick on the ass slapstick"-- from 'vacationer.', Poetry.

- 2***t (78)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBook arrived as described and I appreciate the fast shipping and secure packaging that delivered an already fragile book in readable condition. Good value and I thank you so much for the smooth transaction!
- m***w (167)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseVery good ebay seller! My books arrived quickly and were packaged very well. Communication was excellent from them as were the descriptions of the books. I will definitely be doing business with this seller again. The only thing that I might suggest is to start combining shipping, but the cost was still fairly reasonable and not stupidly high.Hilaire Belloc's Prefaces: Written for Fellow Authors - Hilaire Belloc; J.
