Many of these poems combine people and ideas from these with a modern-day style. Most of the poems deal with death and the afterlife (generally not my favorite topic); of these, I loved "Persephone Writes a Letter to Her Mother", "Cardinal Numbers", "Elegy for a Loggerhead Turtle Washed up on a South Carolina Beach" & "The Machines Mourn the Passing of People". sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
A new edition of A. E. Stallings's first book of poems, which was awarded the Richard Wilbur Award. In Archaic Smile, by the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist A. E. Stallings, the poet couples poetic meditations on classic stories and themes with poems about the everyday, sometimes mundane occurrences of contemporary life (like losing an umbrella or fishing with one's father), and she infuses the latter with the magic of myth and history. With the skill of a scholar and translator and the playful, pristine composition of a poet, Stallings bridges the gap between these two distant worlds. Stallings "invigorates the old forms and makes them sing" (Meryl Natchez, ZYZZYVA) in her poetry, and the scope and origins of her talents are on full display in the acclaimed author's first collection. The poems of Archaic Smile are sung with a timeless, technically impeccable, and utterly true voice. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
