Originally published in 1983 by Xerox Sutra Editions. Hand-drawn, the text acts both as graphic poetry & score for sound-poetry (which the author himself is a delightful wiz at). I saw Chuck give an extraordinary performance of this score at Woodland Patterns in Milwaukee accompanied by George Quasha

The difficulties that language presents have their analogues in life. Whether posed, or proposed, or just tenuously poised on the thin line that divides articulation from understanding, the phrases and phrasings of Tom Beckett’s elegant and nervous Parts and Other Pieces challenge the givens of experience. The excitement and beauty of this four-part book are the product of a mismatch between words and worlds. And it is, indeed, a beautiful and exciting book. Variously witty, angst-ridden, melancholy, sweet, Beckett’s parts provoke a powerful whole. —Lyn Hejinian
