Product Information

Poems that play in the sonic texture of discourses Winner of the Guggenheim Fellowship (2016) The Little Edges is a collection of poems that extends poet Fred Moten's experiments in what he calls "shaped prose"--a way of arranging prose in rhythmic blocks, or sometimes shards, in the interest of audio-visual patterning. Shaped prose is a form that works the "little edges" of lyric and discourse, and radiates out into the space between them. As occasional pieces, many of the poems in the book are the result of a request or commission to comment upon a work of art, or to memorialize a particular moment or person. In Moten's poems, the matter and energy of a singular event or person are transformed by their entrance into the social space that they, in turn, transform. An online reader's companion is available at http://fredmoten.site.wesleyan.edu.

Reviews
Moten's work is free speech in the best sense-musical but with heft-and will appeal to those who prefer their poetry to be 'beyond category.', Moten pays homage to jazz history, poetry history, and the illimitable future of the imagination in works organized less autonomous poems than in page-length lines, blocks of text, and short riffs., "In [Moten's poetry], he gathers the sources running through his head and transforms them into something musical, driven by the material of language itself. The poem 'all topological last friday evening,' collected in Moten's 2015 book, The Little Edges, ... unfolds as a chain of references, from free-jazz saxophonist Albert Ayler to Andrew Marvell. We may not know exactly how we moved from one to the other, but there's pleasure in getting lost in the dance."--David Wallace, The New Yorker "With its jazz exuberance, the book has the maverick spirit of one of its heroes, the multi-media artist Ralph Lemon: no hierarchy, no fluidity, no care-ridden pursuit of time, just bold, wild, delirious genius Moten is intent above all on not being anybody's 'Project.' Anarchronistically whimsical and erotic, his writing consolidates the spirit of jazz well beyond the aim and resources of a Langston Hughes or even an Amiri Baraka. But like Baraka he's a teacher; he instructs as well as delights."--Calvin Bedient, Lana Turner Journal "Moten experiments in 'shaped prose' arranging words in rhythmic blocks, shards and in audio-visual patterns."--Molly McArdle, Library Journal "Skins and minds are among the central concerns of the voices of The Little Edges. Their chunks and fragments mostly focus on listening, though, as a way of getting beneath skins and minds and beyond the rhetoric about them."--T.C. Marshall, American Book Review "Through the interplay of enjambment and parenthesis, the poem pushes us to ponder the appositional relation between making, doing, and having The Little Edges expands Moten's concern for poetry's worlding capacities by placing the reader in the liminal spaces of language and meaning, in the marginal positions suggested by the collection's title."--Gerónimo Sarmiento Cruz, Chicago Review "In its extravagance, Africa-American music can elicit a heightened kinship with its listeners, by turns sensuous or politicized (sometimes both at once) and suffused with pleasure, joy, deep feeling, resistance. Moten aims to do likewise, using mere words, their sounds, and the visual rhythms of the black-and-white page."--James Gibbons, Hyperallergic "Moten pays homage to jazz history, poetry history, and the illimitable future of the imagination in works organized less autonomous poems than in page-length lines, blocks of text, and short riffs."-- Publishers Weekly "Moten's work is free speech in the best sense--musical but with heft--and will appeal to those who prefer their poetry to be 'beyond category'."--Chris Pusateri, Library Journal "Sometimes Moten is riding a wave of sound It's like you're walking by a practice room and someone is improvising on the saxophone, lost to the music, and it's so clear and haunting and beautiful, you can't not stop and listen."--Joy Katz, American Poetry Review "In [Moten's poetry], he gathers the sources running through his head and transforms them into something musical, driven by the material of language itself. The poem 'all topological last friday evening,' collected in Moten's 2015 book, The Little Edges, unfolds as a chain of references, from free-jazz saxophonist Albert Ayler to Andrew Marvell. We may not know exactly how we moved from one to the other, but there's pleasure in getting lost in the dance."--David Wallace, The New Yorker "In many ways, Fred Moten's work is devoted to fugitivity. The stance of his poems is grassroots revolutionary: undoing by means of the everyday, the super-powerful default settings of a corporatized world and thereby reopening the case for what the world of poetry might look and feel like."--Elizabeth Willis, Boston Review, "In [Moten's poetry], he gathers the sources running through his head and transforms them into something musical, driven by the material of language itself.

Wish the book could've been packaged a bit better, the cardboard envelope didn't give much protection from the postal worker shoving it into my mailbox. But great price and arrived quickly
