Changing Planes in Prague
A book meant for some, or perhaps for those for whom it was intended; a work in progress, and an unfinished venture, and more than an unfinished venture, but that is perhaps still another story. It is as the subtitle has it, "a travel journal in real time looking for views from the real world" and it has all the other paradoxes and imperfections of the real time in a world that has enough of reality in it whether we know it or we do not. But most will only be annoyed by this description, which is its intended function. It is better if you don't buy this book in that case, although this is not exactly what niche marketing strategy would advise the writer to tell the prospective purchaser.

The First Walker Street Biennial
The proliferation of biennials, usually involving the importation to small locales of an internationally recognized curator, raises enormous questions of power and responsibility. Maurizio Cattelan offered an implicit critique (or maybe just enjoyed a vacation in the sun) by staging a Sixth Caribbean Biennial in which no works of art were on view. In reverse fashion, documenting the art of a biennial that never took place serves the function of making more visible some existing work, by Brandy Worsfold and Tom Wegrzynowski. The exhibitions of which installation shots appear in this book took place elsewhere and were seen by few people. This documentation, which was briefly available in one Walker Street gallery, has the potential of reaching more viewers than a physical Walker Street Biennial would have had. It should be noted that Walker Street is not only a street with two extremely hip galleries, it is one of the shortest streets in Atlanta, making it the ideal location for this not-quite-virtual biennial.

Uncollected Poems 1966-2006
This Volume Two of the Incomplete Collected Works is brought together totally at the request of the few who remember the early poems and want to see the newest poems collected between soft covers. The magic of on-demand publishing allows for the granting of such wishes, even tailored to individual demands. Kenneth Rexroth, Aimé Césaire, Derek Walcott, and James Nolan are among the poets referred to in this pre-annotated edition. It pleases me to see who will find this book via a websearch for something else.

Unfinished Ventures: Selected Poems 1977-2005 2006 ed.
Though a corrected annotated edition suggests a manic appeal to bibliophiles or a misguided conceptual art project, getting it right (and updating a Quai Branly reference) is a good idea. Annotating oneself suggests megalomania, but my actual readership has expressed appreciation for my explication of references that otherwise would remain annoyingly elusive.
Philip Levine, Kenneth Rexroth, and others provide models and inspiration for these poems; W. G. Sebald, Robert Musil, Thomas Pynchon, Mircea Eliade and a host of others provide novelistic parallels to the interests and strategies found in this inter-related body of work. I have meant for the results to be less pretentious than this brief summation makes them sound.
