For Trapped Things by Brian Kim Stefans collects poems written during our recent overlapping crises: environmental degradation, the dangerous election, the imposition of false freedoms by techno-capitalism, and the increasingly fraught relationship of the individual and the State. By turns fierce, funny, vulnerable, and elegiac, the poems engage both with traditional forms and meters as much as with recent developments in the avant-grade.
Brian Kim Stefans is a poet, digital artist, and theorist. His poetry publications include “Viva Miscegenation,” Kluge: A Meditation and Other Works and What Is Said to the Poet Concerning Flowers. He translates in Festivals of Patience: The Verse Poems of Arthur Rimbaud and writes speculative literary criticism in Word Toys: Poetry and Technics. Links to his digital work, including “The Dreamlife of Letters,” are on arras.net. Stefans teaches in the English Department at UCLA.
