SPECIAL SERIES: Possessive Used As Drink (Me)05.11.2007

thumbnail Poet Anne Carson proves that even the lowly subject of pronouns can be delicious. Asked to give a lecture on pronouns at Harvard, Carson defied the traditional lecture form by bringing in some collaborators: sound artist Stephanie Rowden, three dancers from the Merce Cunningham Dance Company & video artist Sadie Wilcox. The result was a 25 minute performance called Possessive Used As Drink (Me): a lecture in the form of 15 sonnets.
