Cants from Natural History Works (1975)

Using text from Jorge Luis Borges's Labyrinths, but with subtle alterations, Gary Adkins gives us "A Parable of the Endless Recurrence. A dream that deliberately attempts to exhaust its possibilities and borders on its own parody, the duplication of space and the memory of time. In the recognition of a caged leopard. An image of human thought. The apparent contradictions of illusion. Dante dying in Rochester (at Eastman Kodak?)." (G.A.)
