Time Slips Right Before Your Eyes by Erica Hunt

In this book, which begins with a love poem and is encased in sepia images of her blind ancestor standing next to an empty chair, Erica Hunt continues her rigorous and beautiful practice—unflinching, lyrical, politically astute, bodily-located, unpredictable language.

Erica Hunt is a poet, essayist, and author of Local History, Arcade, as well as two poem chapbooks, Piece Logic and Time Flies Right Before the Eyes. Publications include BOMB, Boundary 2, Conjunctions, Poetics Journal, Tripwire, Recluse, various anthologies, and the Politics of Poetic Form. Hunt has received awards from the Foundation for Contemporary Art, the Fund for Poetry and the Djerassi Foundation.
