Summary

Poetry. Flarf. This is the author's second book of poems, after ROUGE STATE. "Rodney Koeneke's quick-paced, often hilarious, often vulgar juxtapositions are rude to understanding but courteous as a calling card to anyone who cares about the life of language. Assembled with delight, affection, and a connoisseur's ear for the latent pleasure of babble, MUSEE MECHANIQUE is a joyous record of the words in our head, c. 2006. I love this book."--Benjamin Friedlander. "The work shows us how it is now, with the nostalgia of the muse oddified by idiosyncratic clutter from Toothy to Tooth to Asteroids. Tell yourself the kaleidoscope is real--we are not being naturalized by pedestrian thoroughfares, rather by the dreamy transmissions of "ecriture for the flaneur/ in search for sexy subforms on the Proust list."--Cynthia Sailers.
