Susan Howe
Susan Howe (1937, Boston, Massachusetts) is an author of a number of books of poetry, including Europe of Trusts: Selected Poems (1990), Frame Structures: Early Poems 1974-1979 (1996) and The Midnight (2003), Pierce-Arrow (1999), Bed Hangings with Susan Bee (2001),Souls of the Labadie Track, (2007) Frolic Architecture, (2010), “Spontaneous Particulars: The Telepathy of Archives” (2014) and That This (2010), and two books of criticism, The Birth-Mark: Unsettling the Wilderness in American Literary History (1993), “The Gorgeous Nothings: Emily Dickinson’s Envelope Poems” (2013) and My Emily Dickinson (1985). Howe began publishing poetry with Hinge Picture in 1974 and was initially received as apart of the amorphous grouping of experimental writers known as the language poets-writers such as Charles Bernstien, Bruce Andrews, Lyn Hejinian, Carla Harryman, Barrett Watten, and Ron Silliman. [7] Her work has appeared in numerous anthologies, including The Norton Anthology of Modern and Contemporary Poetry, the L=A=N=G=U=A=G=E poetry anthology In the American Tree, and The Norton Anthology of Postmodern Poetry.
In 2003, Howe started collaborating with experimental musician David Grubbs. The results were released on three CD’s: Thiefth (featuring the poems Thorow and Melville’s Marginalia), Songs of the Labadie Tract and Frolic Architecture.
