Paperback. Condizione: New. A young Au Pair living in Germany reads Goethe' s famous tragedy, The Sorrows of Young Werther, for the first time. Years later, she crafts an answer as she considers the storm of early love in her own life, the drudgery of work, and even Goethe' s later response to his own text. In this exquisite cycle of prose poems, Jenny Drai' s language twists around corners and bends at odd angles, delivering a voice at once deft and aching, sharp and hungry: " passion-trigger-passion. someone, somewhere, worships in a grotto at a shrine to suicide. the pain of. the remittance of. love." The New Sorrow Is Less Than the Old Sorrow navigates the sturm und drang of early love, loss, and distance, and the timeless perplexity of heartbreak.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Anyone with a history should read Jenny Drai' s The History Worker. This book takes you from the lapidary Hearst Castle extravagance of California' s Central Coast through America to the wilds of Romania and other European outposts. Several journeys, a commentary and much history occur in a broken yet flowing text of details, discoveries and imprecations. We are caught up in Drai' s expeditions and implicated by her discoveries. The History Worker is " a sweet and voyeuristic pickle/marathon of wick-light" in the best, most dazzling sense.- Laura Moriarty I love this book. I love how it revisits the history we are drawn to as children- ""your life collects in what heart you choose"" - how we turn and return to that history as adults to read a new text through it like a palimpsest made by our own reading and writing lives. - Pattie McCarthy.…

Paperback. Condizione: New. Drai launches the reader into a language of scents, tastes, and colors as seductive as it is ominous. A sense of danger, of unreality or the sudden slap of reality, lurks around every corner. Like Scheherazade, Drai is telling stories to save her life, narrating the world around her as an American in Germany in order to understand it. Just as Virgil leads Dante, Scheherazade serves as Drai's guide in the psychological underworld of this collection, interrogating the nature of truth, the truth of storytelling, and the multiple truths of stories of the self. With the deft use of anaphora, internal and slant rhyme, and short lines that make effective use of elision, Drai is a powerful voice singing a subtle, sensitive music.- Wendy Chin-Tanner.…
