FIRE IS THE STATUE WITH THE YOUNG FACE by Jessica Savitz

UPDATE: Fire Is the Statue With the Young Face will be released in September, 2009

The epic snorts!

Savitz’ writing insists that the imagination can do battle with the culture of death, despite its own deathliness, to wit:

We split the tree into pencils; A pencil drawing of a tree makes trees angry. There is a big color copy maching coming out of the heart of America. Slice a top layer of cakc from a fish aquarium I’ve got lots of dreams and I’m not kidding

Jessica Savitz is currently the Plonsker Writer In Residence at Lake Forest College. Her first book, Hunting is Painting, will be released by &Now/Lake Forest U Press next year.
