Signal / Noise

Arts & Literature

“Signal / Noise is a sure and faithful sign that the metaphysical lyric is as alive (as vital and vitalizing) now as it was when George Herbert struck the board ‘and cry’d, No more.’ The voice in these poems is unsettled but tenacious, dedicated (one is tempted to say, consecrated) to the task of living a fully conscious life, even if it means troubling those wounds across which faith sews its scars.”
