Disappearance Approach, an essay about Howe's husband's sudden death--land of darkness or darkness itself you shadow mouth--begins the book with paintings by Poussin, an autopsy, Sarah Edwards and her sister-in-law Hannah, phantoms, and elusive remnants. Frolic Architecture, the second section--inspired by visits to the vast 18th-century Jonathan Edwards archives at the Beinecke and accompanied by six photograms by James Welling--presents hauntingly lovely, oblique type-collages of Hannah Edwards Wetmore's diary entries that Howe (with scissors, invisible Scotch Tape, and a Canon copier) has twisted, flattened, and snipped into inscapes of force. The final section, That This, delivers beautiful short squares of verse that might look at home in a hymnal, with their orderly appearance packing startling power: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e That this book is a history of\u003cbr\u003e a shadow that is a shadow of\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Me mystically one in another\u003cbr\u003e another another to subserve.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-4027146\"\u003eSusan Howe\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Directions Publishing Corporation\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/07\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.75h x 7.57w x 0.31d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780811219181\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0811219186\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-POE\"\u003ePoetry\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-POE005010\"\u003eAmerican | General\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"New Directions Publishing Corporation","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42684628140269,"sku":"9780811219181","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_8c584fac-ea0a-4ccb-817d-2f2594b545ee.jpg?v=1649756374","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/that-this-9780811219181","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
