Description
Through an astonishing series of annotations, Carl Peters encourages new ways to engage with Gertrude Stein's ground-breaking modernist prose-poem Tender Buttons. Peters's sustained annotative reading of this seminal text demonstrates the ways in which Stein's thought questions everything, underlining reasons that her work has long served as the wellspring for generations of experimental writers, inspiring L-A-N-G-U-A-G-E poets such as bill bissett, bpNichol, and George Bowering, and novelists such as William Gass, Sherwood Anderson, and Ernest Hemingway.
