A revitalized poetics of the immediate and eternal.

In Continuum, Baranova documents the inexhaustible ordinary, beholding two-way mirrors of self to self, self to other, and self to reverie. Through snapshots of conceptual improvisation, these poems contemplate spontaneous movements in day-to-day consciousness, disregarding conventional syntactical methods in service of new sonic possibilities. Like fingertips drumming gently on the psyche’s walls, Continuum tests the elastic perimeters of sound, meaning, and musicality in symphonic candor, presence unfolding. The resulting collection brings social and material context to numinous experience, invoking vast thresholds of dialectic inquiry through a revitalized poetics of the immediate and eternal.
