Beschreibung
The Little Edges is a collection of poems that extends poet Fred Moten¿s experiments in what he calls ¿shaped prose¿¿a way of arranging prose in rhythmic blocks, or sometimes shards, in the interest of audio-visual patterning.

In Moten¿s poems, the matter and energy of a singular event or person are transformed by their entrance into the social space that they, in turn, transform.
