Book Synopsis
Reflects on the poetics of the desk - rolltop or bureau-plat, cluttered or bare, the schematic desk, the dramatic desk, the dramatic lack of any such furniture. This work offers a series of meditations on how orderliness, chaos, and other physical states correspond with both the exhilaration of production and the desperation of writer's block.
