Book Overview
"Gregory works to a place where language makes its own prophecies ... meaning-making in language reveals how faith impels us beyond what we know--an approach of belief through word-matter." --Anna Morrison, Omniverse
Jane Gregory's mystifying second collection, Yeah No, begins with a "Knock knock," inviting the reader into a realm where "Everything is a pattern / of yesses and no." Within these pages we find Gregory constructing a multivalent world--ripe with struggle, prophecy and, by the end, a resemblance of hope. Using her highly-tuned sensibility throughout, Gregory guides us through the anxieties of this journey by inventing new and enigmatic forms filled with sonic experimentation and polyphony. Yeah No builds upon the singular vision found within her previous collection, My Enemies, and continues her elegant and challenging address to poetry.
Jane Gregory is from Tucson and lives in Oakland. She is cofounder and coeditor of Nion Editions, a chapbook press.
