"Powerful . . . Given McClatchy's formal virtuosity, I wouldn't be surprised to learn he jots his grocery lists down in terza rima, too." - The New York Times Book Review "Although these poems lament the smarts and humiliations attendant on love and loss, they provoke the kind of wonder and joy we experience when the curtain comes down on a dazzling performance." -The New Leader From the Trade Paperback edition., “Powerful . . .

Synopsis
Since the publication of "Hazmat," a book about the life of the body--short-listed for the Pulitzer Prize--McClatchy's poetry has increasingly taken up the life of the soul. Now, he returns to themes he has touched on before, but from a new or unusual perspective., Since the publication of Hazmat , a book about the life of the bodyshort-listed for the Pulitzer PrizeJ. D. McClatchy's poetry has increasingly taken up the life of the soul. Now in verse as quicksilver as it is authoritative, he returns to themes he has touched on before, but from a new or unusual perspectivefocusing on the frame rather than the picture, the tear rather than the sorrow. The title poem captures the nervous energy and aloneness surrounding the figure of Mercury, while the stunning long poem "Sorrow in 1944" tells the tale of the grown child of Madame Butterfly. McClatchy's impulse is to tell the story after the story, the minor opera in the shadows of a great one that nonetheless tells its own tale of the heart, bearing its own measure of tragedy and hope. With its emotional range, maturity, and formal elegance, Mercury Dressing is the finest work to date from one of our most significant poets. Mercury Dressing To steal a glance and, anxious, see Him slipping into transparency The feathered helmet already in place, Its shadow fallen across his face (His hooded sex its counterpart) Unsteadies the routines of the heart. If I reach out and touch his wing, What harm, what help might he then bring? But suddenly he disappears, As so much else has down the years . . . Until I feel him deep inside The emptiness, preoccupied. His nerve electrifies the air. His message is his being there.

- a***e (135)- Évaluations laissées par l'acheteur.6 derniers moisAchat vérifiéIt is strange that I have to say this, but here we are: This seller posted a photo of the book they are selling and sent me the actual book from the listing. Apparently, this is a unique thing that someone would sell the item they pictured, because I have been trying to complete a collection of this Author for my Dad, and I have received 8...EIGHT!...books from OTHER sellers of different editions than the one listed in their posts. I cant believe eBay allows this! This seller has integrity.The Far Side of the World by Patrick O'Brian (2007, Trade Paperback) Very good (n°386797825605)
