Statement


Mary Ruefle was born in Pennsylvania in 1952.  She is the author of the books listed here.  This website has been designed to allow readers to experience her erasure books, which can otherwise not be seen as they are old, friable, one-of-kind things.  It is also a way for prospective collectors and buyers to preview the books without handling.  The books will be changed eventually.

A full color facsimile of one of the erasure books, Incarnation of the Now, is now available at www.seedoublepress.com.
