PoemTalk at the Writers HouseEpisode 169 - Far in toward the far end (Two poems from George Quasha's “preverbs”)Al Filreis convenes Charles Bernstein, Anthony Elms, and Laynie Browne to talk about two poems by George Quasha. The book, published by Spuyten Duyvil in 2020, titled Not Even Rabbits Go Down This Hole, consists of eight gatherings of preverbs; our two poems, coming from the final section — which bears the name of the book — are “self fast” (numbered 12) and “that music razors through” (numbered 13).

These preverbs were recorded by Chris Funkhouser on December 27, 2017.2022-02-1153 minPoem TalkFar in Toward the Far End: A discussion of George Quasha’s “preverbs.”Hosted by Al Filreis and featuring Charles Bernstein, Laynie Browne, and Anthony Elms.
