“Roewan Crowe is energized by acts of disruption.”
That’s the first line of the short biography Roewan Crowe sent us in advance of Canzine Central, where’ she’ll be reading at our Radical Readers Series on October 25, and it may be the most compelling, and endearing, bit of bio that we’ve got. Indeed, Roewan is one of those people we’re just getting to know and already have lots of warm and wonderful feelings towards (I mean, look at that pink horse head)— and a whole lot of respect.
Roewan’s recent book from Arbeiter Ring Press, Quivering Land, is a “rather queer western.” Already sounds bad-ass, right? From ARP’s website:
Written in a sparse style, this lonely, sometimes brutal book invites the reader on a powerful journey with Clem, Violet, and a dead girl in a red dress. Clem, a lone cowboy, caught in the inevitable violence of the Western, compulsively rides through ghost towns and Monument Valley. Violet is an artist who pulls dead bodies, guns, and memory into her studio, immersing herself in a creative process, seeking to understand the relationships among aggression, vulnerability and the imagination. Disrupting the story are the ghostly visitations of a dead child who travels the western landscape unsettling romanticized, filmic images of Monument Valley.
Interspersed in the text are fragile, beautiful images painstakingly cut from paper, created by artist Paul Robles. This experimental long poem, a gritty feminist meditation on trauma, violence and the possibilities of art, is as powerful as a Smith and Wesson Schofield rifle.”

Good information. Lucky me I came across your website by accident (stumbleupon).
I’ve bookmarked it for later!
Thank you, I’ve recently been searching for info about this topic for ages and
yours is the greatest I’ve discovered till now. But, what concerning the conclusion? Are you positive in regards to the supply?
Hmm it seems like your site ate my first comment (it was super
long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I
had written and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything.
Do you have any helpful hints for novice blog writers?
I’d really appreciate it.
I think the admin of this site is in fact working hard for his web site,
since here every material is quality based stuff.
I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the page layout of
your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got
to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content
so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only
having one or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?
Undeniably believe that which you said. Your favorite justification appeared to be on the internet the simplest thing to be aware of.
I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people consider worries that they just
don’t know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and
also defined out the whole thing without having side-effects , people can take a
signal. Will likely be back to get more. Thanks
I read this piece of writing completely on the topic of the resemblance of most up-to-date and earlier technologies, it’s amazing article.
