Silent Acts of Public Indiscretion

Více o knize

Fierce, haunted, urgent, these are poems that could only have been written in the 21st Century, Catastrophe is already around us and more may lie ahead, but here are offerings of stars, coffee, memories, paintings, and words that stubbornly keep dancing on the edge. -Joyce Johnson Susan Thomas's Silent Acts of Public Indiscretion clarifies the poet's belief that poems surround us, waiting to be captured. Paris, Italy, imagining death as a bus, visual art, Jewish cooking, and creeping autocracy-these poems merge embodied experience with electric language. -Sean Singer
