Throughout Sound Fury, poems by metaphysician Robert Herrick are refashioned into phantasmagorical oddities of likeness and difference. Figures from the fringes of popular imagination-Zane Grey, Robinson Crusoe, Porfirio Diaz-surface as cobbled-together avatars on the theme of identity. Brilliantly asserting the necessity of humane and resistant modes of speech against the vapid sounds and enforced silences of orthodoxy, Sound Fury finds the poet "Now, in our former state/ In our current one/ In stately procession, " venturing forth in a world "where things of questionable being go."
