Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Poetry. Thorpe Moeckel takes in the gorgeous, complex natural world that surrounds us, and which we too often ignore. He adds our goofy and often-painful culture. And then he shows us that language is capable of a more expressive response to these things than most of us ever thought possible.--David YoungThorpe Moeckel is litanist, pilgrim, sensualist, beseecher, explorer, and connoisseur of the heart's underbrush and waterways. OD BOTANY gives us a language of plentitude and paradox that's 'rambunctious on the tongue'--pop-culturally savvy, intensely lyric, and capable of an incomparably delicate tensility.--Lisa Russ Spaar.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In Making a Map of the River, award-winning poet Thorpe Moeckel focuses his rueful, tender attention on the spectrum of being-family, work, play, nature, home--sometimes all at once. The river in question is not just the Chattooga or its colorful, conflicted, rain chasing paddlers and guides. The river is consciousness itself, and Moeckel navigates the rapids and pools of memory and presence and language, layering moments of recognition and realization with painterly details and silty tonalities that embody the paradoxes of living in and representing the natural world. Lavish and austere, this is a book that lingers long on the tongue and eye and ear.

Zustand: Sehr gut. Zustand: Sehr gut | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | On foot and in a leaky canoe, award-winning poet and naturalist Thorpe Moeckel meanders for a year through the fragmented forests of the Eno and Haw watersheds. He seeks the alive interiors of a world covered over in asphalt, seeks to shed its hard exterior and wonder the woods. In doing so he makes a record both physical and numinous. His writing invites readers to journey with him around every surprising bend and twisting turn of phrase. Reading this book is like trying to grasp a live fish or to study the seeds of a jewelweed pod the moment they unfurl: joyful, exhilarating, wakeful, wise, and riddled with each moment's loss. It orients by disorienting, because how else, Moeckel asks, can being in such an altered, changing, resilient place feel. Here is an eco-psychological lingua terra and an Anthropocene pilgrimage. Here, most of all, is an experience in attention to place, the events of the seasonal, day-to-day flora and fauna of the Carolina Piedmont.…
