Poet and cartoonist Austin Kleon has discovered a new way
to read between the lines. Armed with a daily newspaper and
a permanent marker, he constructs through
deconstruction—eliminating the words he doesn't need to
create a new art form: Newspaper Blackout poetry.
Highly original, Kleon's verse ranges from provocative to
lighthearted, and from moving to hysterically funny, and
undoubtedly entertaining. The latest creations in a long
history of "found art," Newspaper Blackout will challenge
you to find new meaning in the familiar and inspiration from
the mundane.
Newspaper Blackout contains original poems by Austin Kleon,
as well as submissions from readers of Kleon's popular
online blog and a handy appendix on how to create your own
blackout poetry.
