Alan Gilbert, whose book of essays Another Future exploded in my face like a soda can, has a review of Vito Acconici's Early Writings: "I extend the line the lineage the lineal the lineament the lineation the," Acconci writes in a single-line poem, the implication being that this line extends off the page and into the world, a trajectory both his poetry and career as an artist resolutely followed. Anyone else caught wind of a happy-if-true rumor that Mayer and Acconici's 0-9 will soon be reprinted?
