Krátky popis
‘A mesmerizing book, deeply original, one of the most profound
reading experiences I’ve had in years … one feels most urgently her
extraordinary force, her dignity, her savage hunger, her sweetness.
These poems make me feel as if poems have never before been
written’ Louise GlückGrand Tour, the debut collection of poetry by
Elisa Gonzalez, dramatizes the mind in motion as it grapples with
something more than an event: she writes of a whole life, to
transcendent effect. By the end, we feel we have been witness to a
poet remaking herself.Gonzalez's poetry depicts the fullness of
living. There are the small moments: ",white wine greening in a
glass,", trumpet blossoms ",panicking across the garden.", Some
poems adopt the oracular quality of a parable but invariably refuse
a clear moral. The poet moves through elegy, romantic and sexual
encounters, family history, and place--Cyprus, Puerto Rico, Poland,
Ohio--all constellated in ",a chaos of faraway.", The collection is
held together less by answers than by a persistent question: How
doe you reconcile a hatred for the world's pain with a love for
that same world, which is indivisible from its worst aspects?
Gonzalez's poems draw us nearer to our own aliveness, its fragility
and sustaining questions.",Since I do love the world,", she says,
she keeps writing, inviting us to accompany her as she searches.
