Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. If Brit Washburn were a painter she would be like Vermeer, following a certain slant of illumination into a dimly lit interior, drawing our attention to the pear on the table, or the child's tiny curled hand. Here is a poetry of clarity and finely wrought detail, that never fails to render what is present, regardless of its tragedy or beauty, and insisting on both. The poems in Notwithstanding, hover, as the title suggests, between the presence of what is, despite that which is not. A lover whom we long for despite our leaving, the golden child we knew inside the troubled young man, the lives we build that fail to nurture us, what we ate, remembered, forgot to remember. Few poets venture into the shadows of romantic love and motherhood with the courage that Washburn brings, examining a decade of choices and their results with a clear-eyed measure. The language here is constantly pressing against the safe path, arguing for a life that is lived fully, tragically, joyously. What is the pleasure of now, these poems ask, the taste of ripe fruit, a child's embrace? And what if now is all we have.…

Zustand: Hervorragend. Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | "Part daybook on living a meaningful life, part phenomenological treatise, What Is Given is a field guide to the interior. Again and again, we are brought to places and difficulties and moments of grace, and each time, a wise guide directs our eye, shows us what lies underneath, and offers a way forward."-Sebastian Matthews, author of In My Father's Footsteps"In poems acutely aware of loss, Washburn comes back to the redeeming beauty of the sensual world. These are poems infused with love and a profound trust in, as she titles one of her poems, 'the radical hospitality of the senses.' With poetry that reminds us to be grateful for what is given, Washburn establishes herself as a necessary poet for our difficult times." -Ed Falco, author of X in the Tickseed.…
