Part of our revived "Poetry Pamphlet Series", Sorting Facts is Susan Howes masterful meditation on the filmmaker Chris Marker, whose film stills are interspersed throughout.

Sorting word-facts I only know an apparition. Scribble grammar
has no neighbor. In the name of reason I need to record something
because I am a survivor in this ocean.

Sorting Facts, or Nineteen Ways of Looking at Marker Reviews

"One way of understanding Sorting Facts as it appears in this cultural moment though surely different times and subsequent readings will fade certain colors and deepen others is as a premonitory exegesis of this registration of the fact of Markers death. And so to encounter the essay now is to see in it a memory of the future: a premonition of an annotation." -- Rebecca Ariel Porte - The Los Angeles Review of Books
