- Summary
- "22 SKIDOO takes as its playground the junkyard of Modernity. In a contemporary world which discards memory and experience along with last season's shoes, any building over 25 years old, and millions of tons of last year's computers and cell phones, these poems recycle archeologically recovered materials into a funny, lively exploration of the possibilities of creation in a world where the young think that what Duke Ellington made wasn't really music. If 22 SKIDOO reclaims the junk of modern culture, finding for it new forms and arrangements, SUBTRACTIONS kicks the props from under the elaborate illusion of completion that ironically locates a world without history."--BOOK JACKET.
