Twenty-six Factions
Paperback Edition: 1
Each of these poems, he notes, is bound by the same constraints: it must mention a statistic or figure; it must mention a proper-noun place; and it must allude, at least obliquely, to mortality . . . If you want to, it is possible to read the whole sequence as a philippic against poetic vagueness, which no amount of earnest exactitude ever seems to make any headway against. The nonce word factition simultaneously evokes (I hope) fact, fiction, and factitiousness (artificiality).
