Tom Fallon's most recent book, NOW - Works on Paper 1976-2006 - Poetry and Antipoetry, presents a unique Maine writer's exploration of literary form, from free verse to concrete poetry to antipoetry to happenings to "word pieces for the wall". As a youth, Fallon's exposure to modern art began in the city of Auburn, continued in the small town of Rumford, with forays into the creative chaos of New York City's Off-Off Broadway during the Seventies, the modern jazz of John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk and Anthony Braxton, encouraging his free exploration of literary form. The former Maine Times poetry editor's association with the early hippie-dominated Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance also advanced his experimental direction. NOW presents 30 years of his unique forms in subjects ranging from jazz pioneers, nature, race prejudice, the spiritual, modern artists, ordinary life, etc., with six recent experiments on 11 x 17 inch sheets included. The book is available in Maine only at independent bookstores and from Tom's website.
