Positive The Rumpus It is not the subject matter of Bird that is revolutionary...Nor is the structure of the story radical. What feels radical is the acute attention to language. It is this intensity that ultimately matters in the telling of this story, for it is what prohibits clichés of words or thoughts. In this sanctioned space that disallows the ease of the familiar, Bird is allowed to authentically be.
