"The very existence of poetry should make us laugh. What is it all about? What is it for?"
--Kenneth Koch
“El subtítulo ‘Modelo para armar’ podría llevar a creer que las
diferentes partes del relato, separadas por blancos, se proponen como piezas permutables.”

It's a little known fact that almost all of Ron Silliman's poetry can be sung to the tune of "Night in Tunisia." Now why anyone would want to sing his poetry to the tune of "Night in Tunisia," I have no idea. Just thought you'd like to know.

Okay, Jonathan, I want to hear your MP3 of "The Chinese Notebook"
If Silliman's 'The Age of Huts' is, as the blurb claims, "about everything, more or less literally", it can probably be hummed (if not sung) to the tune of anything, more or less literally.

I thought it was to the tune of "The Yellow Rose of Tunisia." :-)
