Will Alexander’s The Combustion Cycle focuses the reader’s attention on civilizations, geographies, and celestial objects ignored or rejected by mainstream world cultures. Not merely a regional articulation but in global resonance, Alexander’s global magnum opus aligns regions from Patagonia to the northern polar wastes, to western Africa in an inner technology of burning external to the Occidental machinery with its built-in limits.
Poet, essayist, novelist, short fiction writer, playwright, aphorist, visual artist, and pianist, who has written close to 40 books in the above-mentioned genres, Will Alexander is the poet-in-residence at Beyond Baroque Literary Arts Foundation in Venice, California. He currently lives in Los Angeles.
