The Illustrated Edge: Avoided Subjects Discussed in Plain English
Autor Marsha Pomerantzen Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 iun 2011
A BOSTON GLOBE BEST POETRY BOOK OF 2011
The poems in this collection inhabit several countries or no country at all, but many are concerned with boundaries: between words and silence, one person and another, today and tomorrow, freedom and fear. Although the poems rarely employ traditional forms of rhyme and repetition, their sound is the engine that propels them, while invented visual shapes intensify the experience of reading. All of these experiments are concerned with how art works, what it requires of us, and what it gives back. As the cow in a gallery tells the viewer: "Feed me, please, / your possibilities, / and I will fatten you."
