Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Jasper Bernes's debut, Starsdown (ingirumimusnocte [SPD, dist.], $13 88p ISBN 9781-934639-02-3), attempts to push language toward its full potential for expression, while constantly admitting its utter failure to express. Where one word fails, two more spring up, whether beckoned by music or meaning-"the unmarketable mouth-feel of your best no"- conveying an urban apocalyptic sentiment where art has been commodified to death.
