1992. Introduced by Jonathan Galassi.

"Won't you / turn from the window? Look at me. What do you see out there anyway?" reads Li-Young Lee from "Come." This pairing features previously unreleased work of two intense poets in the early stages of their careers. Lee reads five longer "quarrels"--one from The City in Which I Love You, which received the 1990 Lamont Poetry Prize. Twichell intermixes new poems with the poems from the haunting, philosophic Perdido--as from "Six Belons": "the succulent indecent briny ghosts / that caused this arousal, this feeding, / and now a sudden loneliness."

Length: 57 min.
