Description
Distilling over twenty years-worth of creative material, Pistachios and Frames is the debut poetry collection by acclaimed writer and musician Sasha Frere-Jones.
The vernacular has many nicknames: speakerly, familiar, oral. Poetry begins here, as language derived from talking, but the tumble of theory is how we polish our stones. Abstraction and reorganization and synthesis—invisible forms of the natural world—are three legs of the brain’s long table. No effort can be wasted in a time of genocide and atomized sociality. Sasha Frere-Jones has been using all the tools to write poems since 1982. Pistachios and Frames is a celebration of how we talk to our lovers and children and tormentors. These poems cloak the ancient fact that poets and their readers are closer to god.
