In this new collaboration between artist Simon Carr and poet Leonard Schwartz, risk, beauty, mortality and relation seek out some equation by way of the delirium that accompanies the presence of a certain creature. Following on their earlier book, Salamander: A Bestiary, also from Chax Press, Carr and Schwartz posit that all things are nonselfidentical and that here, color is all. " It isn't a snake, /Its soil and soul in a chthonian coil... That is no snake, it's the sun coming out/From behind several barricades." About Carr and Schwartz's collaborations, Hyperallergic has written that " the two are syncopated in their respect for the otherness of our animal familiars."
