No Chronology de Karen Fish

No Chronology: Phoenix Poets

Autor Karen Fish
en Limba Engleză Paperback – mar 2021
In No Chronology, Karen Fish’s third collection of poems, she investigates those moments when the boundary of everyday life merges with history, imagination, and art. Fish was trained as a visual artist, and this way of seeing is intrinsic to her approach to poetry. Fish’s reflections on art and life speak to our common experiences, and her power to illuminate the subtle complexities of the world around us lies in her keen and compassionate observations. These poems invite us to join her in looking both at and beyond ourselves.
The outside world vanishes. No help comes.
Imagine, staring into the sun, then,
how the clouds spread out and open like wallets
over a few corrugated roofs.
 
Throughout this collection, Fish seeks truths about memory and loss, shame and redemption. She faces uncomfortable questions arising from our individual and collective actions, asking whether we are complicit in extinctions of species and how we reduce the humanity of prisoners by tying their identity to their crime. But these poems are also about naming life’s particular joys: driving in spring, walking through the woods with dogs, or hearing a child speak through the mail slot. They offer a space to encounter lyrical meditation as an experience in and of itself.

Recenzii

"Must-Read Poetry: March 2021"

“While Karen Fish eschews chronology is this most remarkable of books, she nonetheless provides an unsparing, deeply insightful account of an inner life. Told aslant, with exquisite lyricism and incandescent imagery, No Chronology is a beautiful, thrilling book of poems.”

“The angular, focused, gorgeous poems in No Chronology deal with big even lofty concerns in and through the smallest most grounded circumstances and detail. The poems deal with family disfunction, dislocation, addiction, romantic conflict, aging, and political violence in a style that’s as lyrically intense as narratively broad, in language that is fresh, idiosyncratic, and starkly vivid. The world Fish evokes so unforgettably remains recognizable as a literal world even while it’s irradiated with the white heat of subjectivity. This is a fantastic book.”
