Coles Tongues Out in the Garden of Spectacle at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
The poems in this collection are a full response to two collections of essays edited by Umberto Eco: "On Beauty" and "On Ugliness". Both essays explore the full history of art and our perception and digestion of those two concepts. The pivot, the reaction, and ultimately what this collection of poems is saying is that art (the current iteration of artistic practice) is still a wild thing, because we are wild things. The writer's own practice and work in all five parts of this collection bristles against the expectations of the canon and any expectations set by his previous collections. Darren C. Demaree grew up in Mount Vernon, Ohio. He is a graduate of the College of Wooster, Miami University, and Kent State University. He is the recipient of a Greater Columbus Arts Council Grant, an Ohio Arts Council Individual Excellence Award, the Louise Bogan Award from Trio House Press, and the Nancy Dew Taylor Award from Emrys Journal. He is the Editor-in-chief of the Best of the Net Anthology and Managing Editor of Ovenbird Poetry. He is currently working in the Columbus Metropolitan Library system, and living in Columbus, Ohio with his wife and children. Tongues Out in the Garden of Spectacle is his twentieth full-length collection of poetry.
