Inhaltsangabe
Barely ComposedElegies contemplate temporal mysteries—the brief span of human/animal life, the nearly eternal existence of stars and nuclear fuel, the enduring presence of the arts—and offer unsparing glimpses of personal loss and cultural suppressions of truth. Under the duress of silencing, whether chosen or imposed, language warps into something uncanny, rich, and profoundly moving. Various forms of inscription—coloring book to redacted document—enact the combustible power of the unsaid.Though "anguish is the universal language," there also is joy in the reciprocity of gifts and creativity, intellect and intimacy. Gorgeous vintage rhetorics merge with incandescent contemporary registers, and this recombinant linguistic mix gives rise to poems of disarming power. Visionaries—truth tellers, revelators, beholders—offer testimony as beautiful as it is unsettling.Barely Composed

Hardback. Zustand: Good. In this eagerly awaited collection of new poems?her first in over a decade?Alice Fulton reimagines the great lyric subjects?time, death, love?and imbues them with fresh urgency and depth. Barely Composed unveils the emotional devastations that follow trauma or grief?extreme states that threaten psyche and language with disintegration. With rare originality, the poems illuminate the deepest suffering and its aftermath of hypervigilance and numbness, the "formal feeling" described by Emily Dickinson.

Visionaries?truth tellers, revelators, beholders?offer testimony as beautiful as it is unsettling. Shimmering with the "good strangeness of poetry," Barely Composed bears witness to love?s complexities and the fragility of existence. In the midst of cruelty, a world in which ?the pound is by the petting zoo,? Fulton?s poems embrace the inextinguishable search for goodness, compassion, and "the principles of tranquility.".

Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Leichte Kratzer / Abnutzungen / Druckstellen. In this eagerly awaited collection of new poems--her first in over a decade--Alice Fulton reimagines the great lyric subjects of time, death, and love, imbuing them with fresh urgency and depth. The work unveils the emotional devastations following trauma or grief--extreme states threatening psyche and language with disintegration. With rare originality, the poems illuminate deep suffering and its aftermath of hypervigilance and numbness, echoing Emily Dickinson's "formal feeling." Elegies explore temporal mysteries--human and animal life's brevity, the nearly eternal existence of stars and nuclear fuel, and the enduring presence of the arts--offering unsparing glimpses of personal loss and cultural truths. Under silencing duress, language warps into something uncanny and profoundly moving. Various forms of inscription--coloring book to redacted document--enact the power of the unsaid. While "anguish is the universal language," joy also emerges in the reciprocity of gifts and creativity. Gorgeous vintage rhetorics blend with contemporary registers, creating poems of disarming power. Visionaries--truth tellers and beholders--offer testimony as beautiful as it is unsettling. Shimmering with the "good strangeness of poetry," this collection bears witness to love's complexities and existence's fragility, embracing the inextinguishable search for goodness, compassion, and tranquility amidst cruelty.
