Product info

<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Published in 1994, <i>Crystallography</i> was a gem of a book, an instant hit that was nominated for the Gerald Lampert Award. It has been unavailable for an ice age, and Coach House Books is proud to bring it back.</p><p>'Crystallography' means the study of crystals, but also, taken literally, 'lucid writing.' The book exists in the intersection of poetry and science, exploring the relationship between language and crystals - looking at language as a crystal, a space in which the chaos of individual parts align to expose a perfect formation of structure. As Bök himself says, 'a word is a bit of crystal in formation, ' suggesting there is a space in which words, like crystals, can resonate pure form.<p>Lucid, sparkling, a diamond of a book: <i>Crystallography</i> is a crystal-clear approach to the science of poetry from the author of <i>Eunoia</i>.</p>
