Author Description

From poet, cultural analyst, and blogger, James Albert Barr, comes this provocative collection of contemporary poetry which examines and expresses many of the profound and relevant themes and issues concerning a post-millennium world, mired in the semiotic chaos and excess of a digitalised culture, transitioning, with discernible difficulty, from postmodernism to Hypermodernity. This collection also probes, via intertextuality, literary, as well as philosophical, allusions and citations, the connection(s) with our past, both its social, cultural and literary history, and places them in a contemporary context, as we find ourselves collectively hurling, head-long, into an uncertain future.
