The Baudelaire Fractal
Author: Lisa Robertson
Publisher: Coach House Books
ISBN: 1770566023
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 137
Book Description
The debut novel by acclaimed poet Lisa Robertson, in which a poet realizes she's written the works of Baudelaire. One morning, Hazel Brown awakes in a badly decorated hotel room to find that she’s written the complete works of Charles Baudelaire. In her bemusement the hotel becomes every cheap room she ever stayed in during her youthful perambulations in 1980s Paris. This is the legend of a she-dandy’s life. Part magical realism, part feminist ars poetica, part history of tailoring, part bibliophilic anthem, part love affair with nineteenth-century painting, The Baudelaire Fractal is poet and art writer Lisa Robertson’s first novel. "Robertson, with feminist wit, a dash of kink, and a generous brain, has written an urtext that tenders there can be, in fact, or in fiction, no such thing. Hers is a boon for readers and writers, now and in the future."—Jennifer Krasinski, Bookforum "It’s brilliant, strange, and unlike anything I’ve read before."—Rebecca Hussey, BOOKRIOT

Scorn
Author: Dee Piazza
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1462859461
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 125
Book Description
This unique collection of poems was inspired by a true account of love and loss. Rarely do we delve into the fury of betrayal, the pain of being abandoned, and the emotional devastation that is the aftermath. Review of SCORN SCORN as a body attempts to treat wounds too deep and too salted to heal. This work is a study in the opposing forces that flog our souls in times of desperate need. It is at once futile and effective. Anger, spite, and the bright fresh wounds of betrayal describe the first third of the book, which then surprisingly moves into works of hope. A fleeting hope of a joyous resolution as it turns out for SCORN culminates in utter resignation-confirming the existentialist nightmare that looms in every human heart. The author presents a brave face yearning for the sting and release of death-but he is really just everyman bellowing into the abyss knowing that there can be no answer. Not even an echo.
