Memoir Strange Big Moon The Japan and India Journals: 1960-1964 by Kyger, Joanne $16.95, 290 pp., ISBN: 1556433379 North Atlantic Books , 10/1/2000 , Paperback Long Description
Published originally in 1981 as Japan and India Journals: 1960-1964, Strange Big Moon is Joanne Kyger’s journal of four full, tumultuous years as a young poet in her late twenties. Hungry to explore Zen and newly married to Gary Snyder, Kyger makes discoveries that will shape a lifetime of poetry. Whether studying under Zen master Ruth Fuller Sasaki or meeting with the 27-year-old Dalai Lama, her journals are witty, amusing, and razor-incisive. A fascinating look at the early poetics of a writer who would come home to create her place as a leading member of the San Francisco Beat Poetry movement. Reviews
A Strange Big Moon is a re-publication of Kyger's journals from that era, capturing her life at a time hwen she was developing both her poetic and spiritual identities. Far from being a book merely "preoccupied with keeping a budget and washing a drip dry dress," as she writes in her introduction, the journals capture the ruminations and perceptions of a young poet at a time when cultural sensibilities were experiencing significant shifts; traveling with rising counter-cultural luminaries provided her with perfect material on which to turn her sharp, perceptive eye. Some of the more stylized writing in the journal foreshadows the narrative strategies of Ron Silliman's New Sentence, Beverly Dahlen's A Reading, or Lyn Hejinian's My Life.

The Limited Scope of the Recuperative Model:
a context for reading Joanne Kyger by Linda Russo what I wanted to say
was in the broad
sweeping
form of being there —Joanne Kyger, Joanne It is given to the seer to see, but it is then his responsibility to communicate what he sees, that they who cannot see may see, since we are ‘members one of another’.” —Denise Levertov In the work of Joanne Kyger the fact of presence plays out not in subjective seeing and saying – not as reportage, or confession – but as being and saying. The self is phenomenal and therefore as likely to be seen as to see; seeing the self is not an act of introspection only, but of an arraying. The self is among , always in relation, and in Joanne Kyger’s case, in a “broad / sweeping form” of relations – in “being there.” For over 40 years she has, in various and particular ways, engaged with her circumstances, a fact to which the essays collected in this feature attest. The results of her way of being and saying, though constantly brought into print with one or another of the small presses in the tradition of the New American Poetry, have escaped the critical eye – and in that Joanne Kyger is at once very similar to women writers of her generation, and very different from them.

Funny how you had to get him from behind. Irresponsible. Dreadful, like that marmish Persephone, always so doomed, so negative really, she could have just bootstrapped herself back to sunlight, all that sin and pomegranate.

Description
The varieties of poetry written over the past quarter century have produced in turn a variety of new definitions and perspectives: poetry as “voice,” “testimony,” “document,” “research activity,” “game,” “music,” “noise,” “affect,” “cultural sediment”—and much much more. In this class, we’ll try to take the measure of this poetic variety, paying particular attention to the critical frames that the poems presuppose, articulate or summon into existence (in a word, to their poetics). To this end, I’ve chosen ten books of poetry (two are prose-poetry hybrids) that provide a detailed—if far from complete—picture of current practice. My definition of “contemporary” is purposely narrow: the 21st century. In compensation, I’ve tried to take a more capacious view of our other adjective, “American.” The ten books we’ll be reading—all published in the year 2000 or after—include one by a Canadian poet (Lisa Robertson) and another by a poet from the Caribbean (Derek Walcott). The authors vary equally widely in age, experience, publication history and critical reception. Some (Daniel Bouchard, Nada Gordon, Gary Sullivan) are just starting out, and have only published a book or two; others have already produced substantial bodies of work (Rae Armantrout, Allen Grossman). Some (Charles Bernstein, David Antin) are well known and much discussed; others have long labored in obscurity (Joanne Kyger, Askia M.
