Love / All / and Ok
Author: Emily Critchley
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780956546777
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
Love / All That /& OK, an anti-confessional by experimental British poet Emily Critchley. This major new publication brings together a diverse range of work previously published in chapbooks since 2004, and includes new material from the sequences 'Poems for Luke', 'The Sonnets' and 'Poems for Other People'. REVIEWS 'Really intelligent, coquette, fuck-you work ... a space for a new kind of anti-misogynism in poetry.' Marianne Morris 'I think the project is high electrics and considerable. I particularly care for the frailty and edges of coherence loss. It's the intelligent frays that push under my thought and matter most.' Allen Fisher " Critchley's] writing addresses love and gender politics with surprising directness, albeit mostly through misdirection, and though the book is couched as an 'anti-confessional', it strikes me as more of a kind of ironic examination of the confessional mode and its place in women's poetry." Jon Stone, Dr Fulminare

The Good Dark
Author: Annie Guthrie
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781936797592
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Poetry. In the sequence of poems comprising Annie Guthrie's first book, the quest for the meaning of human consciousness and its tangled subjectivity is drawn as a slow-building narrative of the mystic experience. The journey enacted is that of the self as character, who encounters insurmountable mysteries in a breaking selfhood. A dossier of contemplative exploration, THE GOOD DARK chronicles an immersive search in three acts: Unwitting, Chorus, and Body: stations through which the character must pass, and where she is accumulatively confessed, compounded and erased. As Dan Beachy-Quick observes in his Foreword, To pay accurate attention is to find yourself broken in two, or more than two. It is to be shattered by the world you seek into a self comprised of many selves, a chorus, each with its own voice: gossip, other, priest, oracle, reader, and one unnamed because she has no name....these dark, necessary lines lay tangent to each other, glance against one intensity only to err into different discovery...where the body takes 'the blame / for the deeds of the mind.' Beachy-Quick calls THE GOOD DARK a curious testament to the labyrinthine complexity of human rela-tion to the world and those others that fill it....There is nature, and there is God, and there is the gossip between them that the human ear eavesdrops upon...convolutions of heart to mind and mind to heart that understand love's reciprocity is a confounded, confounding form.

An Artist of the Floating World
Author: Kazuo Ishiguro
Publisher: Vintage
ISBN: 0307829065
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
From the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature and author of the Booker Prize–winning novel The Remains of the Day In the face of the misery in his homeland, the artist Masuji Ono was unwilling to devote his art solely to the celebration of physical beauty. Instead, he put his work in the service of the imperialist movement that led Japan into World War II. Now, as the mature Ono struggles through the aftermath of that war, his memories of his youth and of the "floating world"—the nocturnal world of pleasure, entertainment, and drink—offer him both escape and redemption, even as they punish him for betraying his early promise. Indicted by society for its defeat and reviled for his past aesthetics, he relives the passage through his personal history that makes him both a hero and a coward but, above all, a human being.

Of Sea
Author: Elizabeth-Jane Burnett
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781908058829
Category : Marine animals
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Of Sea takes the form of a poetic bestiary of creatures living beneath, beside and above the water: in wetlands, salt marshes and the intertidal zone. In a sequence of 46 poems, Burnett captures the world of cockles and clams, rare moths and the humble earwig (to name a few) with a precise and dynamic lyric that seems always on the verge of music. "Burnett is one of the UK's most original poets of the nonhuman world, and of our environmental moment. Innovative, dazzling, affecting poems that shimmer with intellectual acuity and emotional resonance." Rebecca Tamás
