Exploring the intersection of poetry and mechanical reproduction, Carrie Noland examines how 20th-century poets have sought to redefine subjective expression in a modern industrial context. Through close readings, she highlights a diverse lineage of lyricists, including Rimbaud and Cendrars, alongside contemporary performance artists like Laurie Anderson and Patti Smith. The book delves into their shared concerns regarding the nature of subjectivity, offering a rich analysis of how these artists navigate the complexities of high art and the material world.
