		<description><![CDATA[In poems brilliantly textured and layered, Salgado Maranhão integrates socio-political thought with subjects abstractly metaphysical. Concrete collides with conceptual—butcher shops, sex, and machine guns in conversation with language, absence, and time—resulting in a collection varied as well as unified, an &#8230; <a href="http://milkweed.org/blog/authors/a-conversation-with-salgado-maranhao-and-alexis-levitin-creators-of-blood-of-the-sun/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

By layering multiple photographs taken in rapid succession, Muybridge juxtaposed successive stages of complex movements, such as a horse’s gallop or a pole-vaulter’s acrobatics. <a href="http://milkweed.org/blog/authors/poetry-as-discovery-a-conversation-with-sally-keith/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
