Overview

Conjunctions: 63, Speaking Volumes is a library of ideas on the book as a portal of the imagination, a gateway of language and imagery. Here, the reader discovers meditations on historic books, secret books, imaginary books, ghostwritten and pseudonymous books, books translated and books banned, rare books and forged books. Books that break new ground, books that put words under the microscope, books that signify and those that defy interpretation. Books made of paper or parchment, e-books, poems both about and on Greek urns, narratives tattooed on skin. Speaking Volumes encompasses them all, with writing about writing itself and books that beget other books. Among the many innovative contemporary writers who address this fundamental subject are Peter Gizzi, Samuel R. Delany and Melissa Pritchard.
