About the Book
Poetry. "Trimmed like a sail toward its own origin, ESSE rings with a spareprecision. David Mutschlecner uses subtle sound relationships to polishthe edges of his language and to accentuate its physicality. Returningalways to the question of essence, but from constantly shifting angles,he manages to draw parallels between the living word and the livingbody, narrowing ever closer to 'the inceptive name/ where I too mightagain/ be present.' It's a goal that, in its constant pulling back,pulls us onward. Mutschlecner brings us to its brink" --Cole Swensen.
