<p>Jill Jones is an omnivorous, attentive and exhilarating poet, admired for her seductive hauntings of urban experience and her playful rearrangements of language and page. Her work over the last three decades has fearlessly reckoned with the body and sexuality, place and the environment, the gamut of everyday life. Now, this long-awaited book showcases Jones' ambitious and resonant reworkings of the lyric, her dextrous and often witty extensions of experimental modes, her fresh cinematic eye, and her restless inventories of the planet's current disasters. Gathering work from her 13 previous volumes, plus more than 30 new poems, <em>Acrobat Music</em> is a major recasting of Jones' distinctive and invigorating contribution to contemporary poetry.</p>
