Riassunto

Tim Dlugos, recognized as one of the finest post-New York School poets to be published in the 1970s and 1980s, died of AIDS as he was writing his strongest work - poems about the disease itself. Powerless, which includes those final poems, also goes back to Dlugos' earlier books to create a stunning retrospective.

Su questo libro

Recensione:

Tim Dlugos talks just like you and me, except that behind the landlocked talk can be heard maritime singing; above, between, beyond the familiar names of friends and places, the memories of dreams and the dream of a real life, a wild tense song rings out? Edmund White '...will outlast the trends and secure a place in the so-called canon if for no other reason than for the brilliant, complete, unique and sometimes sublime pleasure it affords (Dennis Cooper)

L'autore:
