Publisher's Synopsis
Poetry. Art. "If Derek Fenner were a machine I'd call him the Peculiar Anomalous Singular Main Frame that factors sequences of instructions from every corner of American Avant Culture. But Derek Fenner is not a machine, he is a compassionate human whose work--whose works--as a publisher, artist, teacher, and poet--dive into the crossroad of that which is absurd about America and that which makes it beautiful--its car rust and small town newspapers and street life and television screen faces and generations of stealthy cults of bookish Blakean-Warholian basement dwellers. He drives his work with the fuel of Wallace Berman's precept--art is love is god--what more can a reader ask for?"--Lisa Jarnot.
