Void & Voice: Essays on Literary and Historical Currents - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A powerful account of a journey to the killing fields of Poland and a brilliant examination of the work and suicide of Primo Levi head this cast of dazzling essays. Kenneth Sherman brings a beautiful, laconic style and originality of thought to these various peices that include incisive readings of H.G. Wells, Czeslaw Milosz, Tomas Transtromer, as well as a convincing reconsideration of Rupert Brooke.

As the title, Void & Voice suggests, all these pieces point to that interplay between absense and presence, emptiness and the human voice of creation that arises to counter it. Kenneth Sherman already has a reputation as an extraordinary poet and this book will demonstrate that he is also one of our best essayists.
