A Poetic Repiecing Of History. The Nonconformist'S Memorial Is A Gathering Of Four Long Sequences That Underscores Susan Howe'S Reputation As One Of The Leading Experimentalists Writing Today. How Is A Poet Of Language In History Whose Work Resonates Back Through Melville, Dickinson, And Shelley To The Seventeenthcentury Metaphysicals And Puritans (The Nonconformism Of The Title), And Forward Again To T. S. Eliot And The Abstract Expressionists. The Sequences Fall Into Two Sections, 'Turning' And 'Conversion,' In Halfironic Nonconforming Counterpart To Eliot'S Four Quartets. Her Collaging And Mirrorimaging Of Words Are Concretions Of Verbal Static, Visual Meditations On What Can And Cannot Be Said. For Howe, 'Melville'S Marginalia' Is The Essential Poem In The Collection, An Approach To An Elusive And Allusive Mind Through Melville'S Own Reading And The Notations In His Library Books. This, Says Howe, Is 'Language A Wood For Thought.'
