Song & Error
Angebote / Angebote:
A lush, lyrical debut from a vibrant new poetic voiceA sparrow like a "fumbled punch line" is lost in an airport, a man translating Ovid is transfigured by witnessing a massacre in Jamestown in 1621, a woman smiles seductively as the skin on her back is opened out like a wing, a lizard upon a laptop shimmers with the true life, primitive and binary, of our modern information age.
In the sonically rich, formally restless poems of this debut collection, Song & Error, the thread that unravels all we think we know of the world is plucked loose and drawn from a seal's beached corpse. Uniting past and present, history and autobiography, Averill Curdy's poems strive to endure within "the crease of transformation" and to speak-sing-of that terrible beauty.
