Bennett is obviously at home with both Siglo de Oro literature and its
linguistic excesses, as he is with contemporary avant garde literature with
its multidirected experiments to both destroy language and to re-create it.
In short, this intricate and faithful-to-the-original (homophonically
speaking) “translation” will surely find its place among the major
experiments in contemporary poetry. -Ivan Argüelles

Bennett’s transduction of Sor Juana’s Primero Sueño was written, he has
said, by “pretending I don’t know Spanish and writing it out (reading it)
as if it were English.” This process arises from “an interest or attention
paid to speech and hand writing as ‘texts’ full of meanings that have
nothing to do with linguistics. I often read, or try to read, printed texts
that way, too.” …. John Bennett’s project is as significant as any we
will find in current poetical practice. – Jim Leftwich

*SOLE DADAS & PRIME SWAY* is also available as an illustrated printed book

http://www.lulu.com/shop/john-m-bennett-and-matthew-t-stolte/drilling-for-suit-mystery/paperback/product-18928369.html;jsessionid=4D5EACF4C2A0E38AACE9E24C7A5139EE

VISUAL POETRY by two masters of their craft, John M. Bennett of Columbus OH and Matthew T. Stolte of Madison WI; Collaborative works of vivid, full-color, free flowing calligraphy, drawing, and stampings of found objects, all made in a lively give and take – we should be grateful for the results. C. Mehrl Bennett makes it a three-some in the second section; she also designed the book and its cover.
