Neuware - In Stones Are the First to Rise, Buddha, a U.P.S. driver, and an old woman living in hill country shares space and time with stones and peas and war and climate change, plus explorations of childhood and becoming a particular person. Throughout many of his books, Giannini finds himself working with discrete sets of concerns over the course of months or years, concerns that nevertheless cohere as a single envisioning, a book, as the parts of the body cohere to make body.

Not one listened.Then they were liftedhigher and higher, dumpedloudly into their gray language, their heaped syntax(no one could decipher)on the ground. 'One rakedeserves another, ' said a worker, as she and co-worker beganspreading sentences of graniteuntil the whole story became clear: the fresh path we could walklistening to the small nouns, the ancient ones, turning under our feet, how they depend, as we all do, on boundaries, boulders at the edge. …
