JAMES GURLEY & NEILE GRAHAM
Mr. Gurley won the 2002 T.S. Eliot Prize, and his winning collection, _Human
Cartography_ (Truman State), debuts tonight. His work merges the lives and
voices of scientists and artists to map the flowing identities and thoughts.
An example, from "Biosophy: An Optimist's Manifesto," "What of that //
other possibility, evening, / when our whole body is one sense." The poems
in Ms. Graham's latest book, _Blood Memory_ (BuschekBooks), braid stories of
people from across centuries into a thick metaphysical cord. This is an
evening of poetry of shifting selves.
