description: Poetry. In Chris Stroffolino's third proper book of poetry, he gives us arefined collection of poems that are his best to date. Pam Rehm saysof SPECULATIVE PRIMITIVE, "There is something very physical about theway Chris Stroffolino uses language. [Here] is an invigorating walkthrough the sensuality of Stroffolino's thought processes. It's partplaying at language and part longing for another way, something otherthan language, to express the emotions one feels, not only for otherpeople, but for moments. This is his best work yet. I only wish Icould have said something about his relation to music and how you cansee it all over these poems."
