9781639804238 - What Do You Mean When You Say Green?: And Other Poems of Color von Levy, Lori (2 Ergebnisse)

Zustand: New. In.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The poems in Lori Levy's chapbook burst with color, a world filled with the 'scent of eucalyptus,' 'under skies pregnant with treetops/and the flapping wings of birds.' Poems travel from a kibbutz in Israel, to Panama and Vermont, places ripe with pumpkins and yams and 'the rattle of Mexican maracas.' When a guest slices and plates a papaya for breakfast it is transformed into an unforgettable experience. Even the sadness of a relative sick in the hospital or a parent aging is gracefully accepted. These poems demand the reader pay attention to even 'a whisper in the woods,' all the sounds, tastes and especially the colors that make life meaningful. This collection dazzles with color and taste and vibrancy.
