Editorial Review:

Product Description:
Using 'ambient language'-fragments, excerpts, stage directions, echoes, conversation snippets, syntactic undulation, and rigorous sonic chaos-Edwin Torres creates an alchemy of language, what he calls 'electrobabble' and 'algorithmictotem.' Amid the fast-paced frenzy of his lyrical style, Torres finds an excited reason for hope and purpose: 'one by one/ the rhythmic yuwanna/ will climb the fearist/ the murmuring yugottit/ will find the liminal/ the metronomed howboutit/ will catch the kicker.' Amid such restless verbal motion, things will happen, things must happen; as order will emerge from disorder, a sense of calm gradually suffuses THE POPEDOLOGY OF AN AMBIENT LANGUAGE. 'This all impossible/ But I appear it on page, so/ Becomes possible on way-through page.'
