Description: "The Force of What's Possible features unique approaches to the concerns facing writers who compose works outside of the mainstream ken and beyond the expected terrain of experiment--courting what's unknown, uncertain, and even unrecognizable. Distinct in method and influence--and informed by discrepant genres and traditions--what they share is a love of the written word, the politics, processes, and beliefs that catalyze their work: a calling to the force of what literary language might do or become"--Page 4 of cover.
