Fiction. In METAMORPHOSIS, Doug Nufer first metamorphoses The Metamorphosis, Kafka's famous story, by subjecting a composite English translation of Kafka's full text to anagrammatic transformations that carefully retain the semantic outline of the original, but submerge it into the bubbling stew of zany detail that emerges from Nufer's richly inventive, often hilarious, and strangely beautiful wordplay. Then he turns his attention to an iconic excerpt from the beginning of the German text, rendering it into a dizzyingly diverse series of shapes and effects by various technical means in a virtuosic demonstration reminiscent of Queneau's Exercises in Style. I wonder where my project belongs, Nufer writes in an afterword; Maybe the appeal of venturing into a maze of translations and other constraints is analogous to the appeal a traveling salesman living with his parents and sister at the turn of the last century might have felt when, at the end of another awful day of work, he took up his needles to play.

Lounge Acts by Doug Nufer Paperback, 66 pages Dimensions: 5.5" x 8.5" x 0.25" ISBN: 978-0-9814623-8-7 "Nufer tells the truth, even though he knows as well as the lord above knows: the truth is over-rated. Nufer is a poet who has you in the corner, eye to eye, giving you the skinny, or maybe he's with you at the counter, sharing secrets, his hand grabbing yr arm the more he realizes yr ok. That's how damn good a writer he is." -Thurston Moore "Lounge is by its nature a mixologist's soundtrack, or, as Doug Nufer-no stranger to the fillies he-might crack, a track sound for the Gin Ricky playing back bar. And here, Nufer swings.." -Vanessa Place "I can't define that book. Sometimes I think it's a book of poetry, sometimes I think it's a reference book, sometimes I think it's a conceptual art piece. It flows in and out of different contexts. I believe it will be received by the poetry world, by the writing world that I'm involved with. It got really juiced in the music world. We got major juice." -Kenneth Goldsmith
