description: Poetry. POWERS: TRACK VOLUME THREE is third and last volume of the serial poem begun in Track and continued in Columns. "Paradise is the track we're following in this poem, the spoor we're on, the prey we're tracking. . . . Reworking a poetic midrash in the light of Jabes, availing himself of a deceptively simple poetic line which has antecedents in Michael Palmer's recent work, and then referring to scriptural hermeneutics throughout, Finkelstein has created an amazing new kind of poem: as tensile as it is frangible, as spiritually reviving as it is philosophically zeroing" - Peter O'Leary. "The act of reading, after all, always leaves "some other's / dreams" at least partially "enfolded in the self." Finkelstein's gift, in Track, lies in his ability to stay half self-conscious and half spellbound by those others' dreams"--Eric Selinger.
