Vezi toate premiile Carte premiată

"Black's poems, in their measured grace, have a quiet intensity, animated by her passion for a clarity of understanding, in the art as in the life."-Stanley Kunitz

"I have not handled the ordinary well"
"And wandered into much time spent"
"Taking on the unfaithful, "

"Blunder and flaw. -"-from "Heaven, Which Is"

Sophie Cabot Black's anticipated follow-up to her award-winning debut, "The Misunderstanding of Nature," describes a restless spirit at the crossroads of love and damage, rapture and disenchantment, the mountain and the descent. The voices of these poems struggle through the hesitancies of doubt and loss to end at more than survival or witness; they achieve clarity by singing of the resiliencies of the known world, after paradise inevitably fails.

Recenzii

Praise for "The Misunderstanding of Nature: "Hers are poems which merge the erotic and the spiritual with an adamance as old as the Song of Songs, and with a prosody and lyrical richness of portraiture drawn from the Metaphysical poets and, especially, from the early Berryman . . . A distinguished collection, one of the liveliest first books in years." --David Wojahn, "Poetry
