Alaskaphrenia
is unlike
any other book I have readas indebted to Melville as to postmodern
poetics, its pleasures are terrors, and yet all its terrors are sly and
seductive, and necessary . . . this Alaska-of-the-mind Christine Hume
offers us is a glittery, glamorous place of old words and new syntaxes,
of elemental dangers and pleasures previously unknown to American poetry.
