If you haven't already checked out Stephanie Pope's Mythopoetry.com site, please do so.
In a series of essays, Stephanie worked the Janus image and the theme of a coin with two faces as a starting off point for discussing American identity, politics, images, and fantasies. Of itself, Stephanie’s style is fascinating. She maintains a dialogue between forms, allowing them to unpack themselves of their own. She does not concretized, limit, or “factualize” phenomena, but rather, holds a synthetic dialectic with a pantheon of forms that decompress their significations. There is no judgment in her writing, only images dreaming themselves into the phenomenal world.
