Description
Es una obra cumbre de la poesía moderna. Sus composiciones rompen con el estilo convencional, en uso hasta entonces, y rejuvenecen la estructura del verso mediante el uso regular de encabalgamientos, rechazos y contrarrechazos. Esto renueva la forma rígida del soneto. Utiliza imágenes sugestivas mediante asociaciones a menudo inéditas, tales como el "Ángel cruel que azota los soles" (Le Voyage). Mezcla el lenguaje erudito con el discurso cotidiano....

"We lived overlooking the walls overlooking the cemetery." So begins the title poem of this collection, whose recursive temporality is filled with living, grieving things, punctuated by an unseen world of roots, bodies, and concealed histories. Like a cemetery, too, The Milk Hours sets unlikely neighbors alongside each other: Hegel and Murakami, Melville and the Persian astronomer al-Sufi, enacting a transhistorical poetics even as it brims with intimacy....

The inhabitants of Frank Jamison's Songs of Unsung People are the people we meet every day on the streets and in the diners, some physically strong and some who get about with the help of walkers. From a preacher on a street corner to a woman on a ferry bound for Sausalito, some engaged in the everyday minutiae of life, as store clerks and waitresses or, more outlandishly, a man showing off cats for a crowd gathered to watch a Key West sunset, all...

About a year after his death, I began to write a poem each morning. I imposed my own guidelines: write about whatever pops into my mind, it must fit onto one page of my journal, and no editing.

This selection of poems by a new author was triggered by the tragic death of his 28-year-old daughter. So the collection begins with loss and the aftermath of loss: the hope of the author that his daughter and he may be reunited in the life to come. This hope underlies many of the poems. This is clearly articulated in 'Osler and Son', where a father grieves for loss of his son in World War I but in a stoical, unexpressed manner.

Donde los puentes se alzan es una mirada poética. Alegorías que se confunden con la propia metáfora de la vida, para ser un solo paso caminante mimetizado en el paisaje. Donde la montaña, el río, el árbol o el puente, tienen voz propia a través del eco viajero. Poemas que hablan de sentimientos vivos que van de lugar en lugar; de corazón en corazón, con su gesto emblemático. Como si todas las cosas estuvieran relacionadas y formasen un "todo"....
