Quill pen, linotype, computer: does how you write affect what you write? In with wax, derek beaulieu spurns the sentence and woos the phrase, the image and the language of printing, weaving fragments together to address the question of how publishing and printing affect writing. The result is a series of poems -- marvellous hybrids of visual, Language and lyrical poetry -- that are sure to impress.
