"In forget thee, Dreiblatt's first full-length book of poetry, an anonymous narrator ruminates on the end of the world, while conversing with various historic and literary figures from the ancient Mediterranean and Mesopotamian worlds. Going behind writing to start language afresh, they observe together how often worlds end; how language is the register in time of our answerability to each other; how writing, sociality, play, violence, and transcendence flow together into the vexed semi-coherence we have come to call culture."--Publisher's website, viewed June 30, 2021.
