The accordion style pages of Anthony Hassett's travel albums are hand-drawn, colored, and glazed works of art -- at once visual poems and illustrated critiques: letters of love and condemnation culled from a constant abysmal penitence. Hassett has traveled, lived, written and drawn his poems and images in forty countries, occasionally stopping to exhibit his books in cities like Berlin, Buenos Aires and New York. A Naropa Institute dropout, Hassett has studied with William Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg, whose refined and incomprehensible insults continue to inspire his own dream to produce his own degree of oblivion, or minor literature, or both. When in the United States, he resides in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Hassett's life has been an unceasing and courageous half-century of philosophical inquiry, civil disobedience, defiance of existing socio-political structures, flagrant rebellion, and pursuit of the Real, of which this -- Gazette, his first in a series of forthcoming volumes -- can attest. It is a fine and significant addition to the art of poetry.
