  | | Border Towns (Amerian Literature) von C.S. Giscombe Paperback, 217 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2016 von Dalkey Archive Press ISBN-13: 978-1-56478-765-1, ISBN: 1-56478-765-6 "The several essays that comprise Border Towns chase, worry, and trouble ideas about situation and reference. As a group, the essays’ topics―color, lycanthropy, African-Canadian history, cooking, public transit, etc.―make an unlikely field. But through all its pages the book traces and describes acts of situation; and―for all its werewolves, green-grocers, and paeans to miscegenation and migration―its interest is not in capturing but i ..." |
 | | Ohio Railroads(1st Edition) von C. S. Giscombe Paperback, 64 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2014 von Omnidawn ISBN-13: 978-1-890650-74-2, ISBN: 1-890650-74-9 "Ohio Railroads is a long poem--in essay form--with origins in the author's memory of a dream in which one of his parents died and the other, in response, sent forward a warning in what may have been the persona of the departed one.

The place of exploration is the several neighborhoods that comprise black Dayton (nei ..." |
 | | Here von C. S. Giscombe, C. Loyola Giscombe Paperback, 63 Seiten, Veröffentlicht 2014 von Dalkey Archive Press ISBN-13: 978-1-56478-338-7, ISBN: 1-56478-338-3 "C. S. Giscombe's "Here" is a long, single poem that takes place in a progression of three settings, three unlikely locations: the edges of the urban south, the edges--just beyond and just within the city--of rural Ohio, and the places where upstate New York forms the border with Canada, "the next country." "Here" is racial in its knowledge and acknowledgment of the great geographic archetype, the journey north; yet the work's nature den ..." |

S. Giscombe's long, long song of location and range. In all the work collected here, location is a practice; range is the fact of the serial, the figuring of continuous arrival.

It lays out a landscape of habitations (Frank Lloyd Wright's designs for "servantless families," fox dens in an embankment, the two-mile long face of Chicago’s Robert Taylor public housing project, etc.) and crosses and recrosses the line between poetry and prose. The book is an acknowledgment of the ..." |

It was on his third or fourth trip there that the poet C. S. Giscombe grew aware of the space Canada had staked out in his imagination. Giscombe later spent a winter with his family in British Columbia, and his time there provides a lens through which he interrogates his preoccupation with Canada's otherness. Giscombe writes that "border crossings ar ..." |
