Prelude: Poems: Pitt Poetry Series
Autor Brynne Rebele-Henryen Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 mar 2022
Prelude delineates the gay female experience through a poetic reconstruction of the girlhood of Catherine of Siena, a Catholic saint who lived in 1300s Italy and disobeyed her parents by refusing marriage to devote her life to God. Through a historical lens, Brynne Rebele-Henry examines the erasure of gay women’s lives and offers a perspective of medieval queer girlhood while considering themes such as violence, desire, and the lesbian body.

Recenzii
“Built on a fascinating history while creating a fresh and heartbreaking perspective, Rebele-Henry’s poetry brings to life an LGBTQ+ experience. Highly recommended.” —Library Journal
“The poems in Prelude by Brynne Rebele-Henry strike like lightening on the night sky, with imagery so spare and halting that my own imaginings stunned me to inner silence.” —Colorado Review
“Brynne Rebele-Henry’s Prelude travels through time and space to commune with one of history’s great literary saints, Catherine of Siena. As the two writers’ language braids together, so too does their loneliness, their prayer, their desperate and palpable yearning. ‘In the darkness, I whispered hymns like they could keep me,’ begins one poem, and it’s as if both women are speaking at once. Prelude is richly researched and exquisitely rendered, an unforgettable collection.” —Kaveh Akbar, author of Pilgrim Bell
