Theory of Prepositions

This is the first title from La Presse, a new imprint of Fence Books publishing contemporary experimental French poetry in English translation. Publishing two new titles a year, the imprint will explore the rich variety of experimentation coming out of small French presses such as P.O.L. and Bleu du ciel, work that shares with much new American poetry the legacies of the radical Modernists. This book, precise and distilled, pushes at the limits of language and finds there a wonder with humanity at its center.
