In his effort to get at the presence lying beneath his elbow, Ponge charts out a space of silent consolation that lies beyond (and challenges) scientific objectivity and poetic transport. This is one of Ponges most personal, overlooked, and-because it was the project he was working on when he died-his least processed works. It reveals the personal struggle Ponge engaged in throughout all of his writing, a hesitant uncertainty he usually pared away from his published texts that is at touching opposition to the manufactured, durable mother of the table on and of which he here writes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67961984385312,"sku":"NEW1939663245","price":14.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61wbIilBi5L.jpg?v=1792888690","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-table-1939663245","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
