Description: Word Play Place is the first sustained treatment of the poetry of John Matthias, who stands outside the mainstream of American poetry and is guided by an aesthetic that has not been easy to define. These twelve contributors and twelve points of view will permit readers to approach the ambition, the richness, and the strangeness of Matthias's work with awareness and understanding.
