day until a line of brown spread along the edge of
each green bayonet, so the earth became pale, pink
in the red country and white in the gray country.
In the water-cut gullies the earth dusted down in
dry little streams. Gophers and ant lions started
small avalanches. And as the sharp sun struck day
after day, the leaves of the young corn became
less stiff and erect; they bent in a curve at
first, and then, as the central ribs of strength
grew ...

response of the Financial Times to the
best-selling novel, The Wasp Factory, and in my
opinion, truer words were never spoken. I myself
had to force the book out of my hands in the early
hours of the morning on several occasions. This
clearly says something about the sheer power of
Iain Banks debut novel. Whether you love it or

Quot A Quot Praying Mantis
2,131 words
Perhaps the most graphic example of formalism in
dialogue with modern materialism is Zukofsky's
sestina " Mantis, " which not only
addresses the alienation of life under modern
capitalism but does so by debating the "
implications of a too regular form. " What is
most interesting about Zukofsky's response to
social crisis is that it is often conducted in
formal terms that seem at odds with the material
under consideration. This disparity has prompted
Eric Mottram to speak of ...
