Crop:

Yedda Mari Morrison. Kelsey Street Press, $11 (79pp) ISBN 978-0-932716-65-1

Beginning with a listed ""table of limits,"" the four pieces of Yedda Morrison's Crop brook ""no essential Rotarian forfeit"" in ingeniously plotting out the relations between labor, management, California cherry fields, California prisons, degraded monocropist environments, ""dolly, my porcelain cell life"" and the conditions that keep ""my units reproduced and floating in the even pink vat."" This book is the limit-case of discursively rendered biopower, revealing ""how/ bodies/ boil/ down/ to/ purpose.""
