Portable City
Paper: ISBN 979-8-9913377-4-8 $18
Portable City is primarily a travelogue composed of introspections on movement through both the physical world and nonlinear timelines. Introducing the concrete and the abstract to one another, it is an endeavor of braided language, some edges sharp and others softened. In its meditations, the collection builds dialogue between image and narrative, between the tangible and the intangible, and between the world at large and its most attentive observers.
From loose pages to issue 119 of our magazine, an anthology of over 100 HLP poets, over a decade of the Loose Award for translated works, the Founders prize for first book in its third year, and a bunch of great books in the works, we couldn’t have come this far without you.
