Description

Control Suppress Delete troubles received ideas. Interested in rules and randomness and in finding the randomness in rules, Angela Hibbs writes poetry that questions the human condition and finds social structures provide little support. Swarming with bees and lizards, and inspired by the artwork of Francis Bacon and Louise Bourgeois, Control Suppress Delete is at once both foreign and familiar. This is a must-read collection from one of Canada's most inventive poets.
