OUTWITH by David Herd
$10.00
OUTWITH presents a series of poems about dis- placement, about locations where one becomes “unlocatable,” and the imposition of that most indeterminate and yet ever expanding “state”—the state of exception. Herd is everywhere concerned with the “suspension” the refugee and detainee is held in—a state in which the spatial, temporal, individual and iterative scales are enclosed, made fugitive, unmarked. Thus he is fulfilling that crucial political role of witness, attempting to bring these very structures of exception into the realm of the expressible – to mark their absence. Minute, careful, and yet expansively serial, Herd's work ranges far and wide as it circles an absent “local.”
