If you occasionally think of your life as aimless and absurd, you're not imagining things. Or maybe you are: Call your online outbursts tweets, but birdsong is much more urgent. Surrealist poet James Tate, who died in July 2015, turns the woodpecker's tap into a Morse code warning from the front lines. Too bad cracking the code seems like such a bother. Crawl out on his limb, and soon the folly of it all will make perfect sense. Here's just one poem to give you an idea. Maybe you can't relate. But most of what I read on social media seems just as sadly ridiculous, and nowhere near as much fun. Finally, I have found another book of Tate's poetry. This is a collection of the best prose poems from many of his earlier books and they are so good, be it his sly humor, painful angst, or his clever and strange writing. Now that I'm two for two in loving his poetry, I will continue my search for even more. It hard to explain why his bizarre style appeals to me so much, but even when I'm not really sure what he's driving at with his prose, I so appreciate the attempt. I'm sure hat he's not for everyone, no poetry is, but everybody should read a little and see what they think. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
"Tate's poems are meditative, introverted, self-reliant, funny, alarming, strange, difficult, intelligent, and beautifully crafted." --New York Times The Eternal Ones of the Dream is a breathtaking collection of poems from the last two decades of work of one of modern American poetry's major artists, Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award winner James Tate. Tate's remarkable work--filled with dark wit, dry humor, and deceptive simplicity--is considered among the most accessible poetry written in the last several decades, and it has inspired acclaimed poet W.S. Merwin to write, "Mr. Tate's gift is such that many of [his] poems move me at least to plain envy of what he can do." No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
