The title of Silver and Information comes from a photographer’s statement, “My work is becoming more and more and more silver and less and less information.” This book swings between the poles of aboriginal working-class Philadelphia, where a father maps the economies and grievances of a generation, and the more silvery, reflective, and incandescent meditations on the lapsed world.
Industry Reviews
"Smith's passionate attention to substance--things, people, events, places--is what forms the structures of his poems, which are formal in the truest sense. They are made in a master's unselfconscious of craft for the purpose of saying what is important. They are neither new nor old, but themselves, and they affect me deeply."--Hayden Carruth, author of Toward the Distant Islands
