Lorand Gaspar
Approach of the Word
by Lorand Gaspar, translated from the French by Mary Ann Caws from his book Sol Absolu forthcoming from ContramundumThe language of poetry can’t be enclosed in any category, can’t be summed up in any function or formula. Neither instrument nor ornament, it scans a word carrying the ages and the fleeting space, founding both stone and history, welcoming their dust. It moves about in the energy that makes and breaks empires.
