Summary

Two full-length collections of prose poems are contained in Body Language, one titled Body (on parts of the body) and one titled Primer (on numbers and letters), which together form a diptych investigating the body in language and language in the body. "With its trope of clue-like instruction and unique, flip-book embodiment," writes Lisa Russ Spahr, "Cunningham s book creates a kind of hybrid detective f(r)iction, an intrepid mash-up of high and low cultures in which the reader is as likely to encounter Rilke and Proto-Sinaitic inscription as Lacan, Film Noir, The Three Stooges, cell phones, higher mathematics, binary thought, and Coyote and Road Runner cartoons. . . . A mix of anachronistic, equally relentless somatic and figurative explorations of the body ( a paradise of sorts ) and the mind."

Author Biography
