Subduing Demons In America is the first career-spanning collection of Giorno's work and offers the best of Giorno’s revolutionary poetry, from his striking Pop Art influenced poems of the 1960s to the psychedelic, echo-laden, multitracked cut-ups of the 1970s with their explosive configurations of queer sex, spiritual practice, and the bohemian Good Life. Also included are the pared-down punk/hip-hop performance poems that Giorno performed in the 1980s.
