This first monograph devoted to John Giorno explores the many ways he integrated poetry into everyday life. From wall texts and live performances to LP records and the groundbreaking Dial-A-Poem project, Giorno transformed language into a dynamic public experience. Richly illustrated with archival documents, photographs, and rare ephemera, the publication reveals the breadth of his creative and personal world. Beyond his artistic practice, it presents an intimate portrait of Giorno as an activist, performer, Buddhist practitioner, collaborator, and friend, highlighting the lasting impact of his experimental approach to poetry, community, and contemporary culture.
