Reynolds and Griffen made very specific structural choices with Ain’t Burned All the Bright. It is divided into three breaths, each breath is one continued run-on sentence, and each breath starts mid-sentence. How does this structure relate to the book’s broader ideas and themes about breathing?
The artwork in Ain’t Burned All the Bright often reinforces or even expands the meaning of the prose poetry on the page. Pick two or three examples that stand out to you and discuss the relationship between the words and the art.
The artwork in Ain’t Burned All the Bright has a very unique and specific style and feel, as if it was created using the limited materials the artist had on hand during lockdown. How does this style, and the book’s production, which attempts to directly reproduce a hand-made feel, relate to the broader themes explored in the text?
