Beschreibung
"e;A loopy pilgrimage from a haunted past into a hopped-up, mad new world"e; from the Pulitzer Prize winner and former US poet laureate (Newsday).Loneliness, loss, sadness, and mystery mark this wonderful volume of forty-nine poems by Charles Simic, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for The World Doesn't End and praised as "e;one of the truly imaginative writers of our time"e; by the Los Angeles Times."e;A Charles Simic poem starts with a sentence fragment, an ungainly image crash-landing at the feet of a speaker who was expecting something else entirely . . . There is a Central European sensibility at work in his poems."e; -The New York Times Book Review"e;Simic is adept at runic inscriptions, fragments of dislodged civilizations, the shards of universal disjunction, and poignant ruin."e; -The Washington Post"e;The quality of Simic's poems has grown steadily over the past two decades, despite a MacArthur 'genius' award and last year's Pulitzer. Such prizes seem piteously small next to the large beauties of his work."e; -Harvard Book Review"e;Fifty poems of inimitable grace and beauty."e; -Publishers Weekly"e;He touches the reader with an aching impact."e; -The Litchfield County Times
