Between Grammars
Danielle Vogel
(Author)
Description
First in a trilogy of texts, Between Grammars is a book-length narrative poem composed of prose-fragments that investigates the boundaries between books, language, and the bodies that read and write them. Within these pages, language becomes a living organism as "Grammars cohere, lap, unfold. A slanting field upon the other." This text explores the porous architectures built between people and their vocabulary -- how we meet inside these architectures and what we're able to exchange there. As we read, "Language tides the skinline," collapsing the distinctions between self and other.
