Anarchive
Poetry. ANARCHIVE initiates an ongoing project that takes up the history of anarchist uprisings as a site for poetic archeology. ANARCHIVE investigates two propositions: that there is a necessarily familial relationship between poetry and anarchy, and that poetry is, moment by moment, built out of the inherent and sudden uprisings and insurgencies of language itself. Stephen Collis is a poet and critic who teaches literature at Simon Fraser University. He is the author of MINE, and the editor of the forthcoming COMPANIONS AND HORIZONS: AN ANTHOLOGY OF SFU POETRY.

Original review; December 2007
I believe in order to enjoy this book, one must be well versed in the happenings and occurrences of the Spanish Civil War of 1936. I am not. Without a base understanding this collection of poetry, that sometimes illuminates and sometimes charms, is not very enjoyable. Three stars as it stands, pending more as my knowledge grows.
Revisited review; August 2010
The learned person knowledgable about the events will surely enjoy this collection.
