Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Poetry. Winner of the Tenth Gate Prize. The sixth poetry collection by the prize-winning poet Jane Satterfield, Luminous Crown journeys through nature's evolution through the millennia that have led our species to wonder, to awe, and urges us to listen, to enter the soul so much larger than our own. Judge Oliver de la Paz says, "In Satterfield's magnificent poems, the world gleams at the edge of ruin and renewal. In poem after poem we are invited to listen for the murmurs beneath bark and bone. We trace the tremors of species and selves as we collectively move through the Anthropocene, ever watchful of the horizon. We are invited to learn."Camille Dunge adds, "In Luminous Crown, Jane Satterfield finds way after way to keep me 'in that place of astonishment' accessed when the heart remains wholly open to the greater-than-human world. The ferocity and porosity of these poems startle me into alertness and care. What splendid, necessary work." Diving in, V. Penelope Pelizzon writes: "The poems of Satterfield's Luminous Crown delight[s] with feral and aural intensities. Even as they mourn species 'caught in the crosshairs of going & gone, ' they thrum with life, their rich linguistic soundscapes vitalizing human and animal experience amid upheaval. Here are wild moors and woods and tundra aplenty, where we meet the fox 'traveling through/ twin kingdoms of dusk and dawn' and 'the crow worrying its rag of mouse, / a needful fable of stab & snatch" and polar bears "microdosing on low-angle / sunlight.' Yet while John Clare and Emily Bronte are her clear forebears, Satterfield's intelligence is unmistakably 21st century, ever-aware that the gem-like/glint across a lawn, / prismatic as it skims a pond might be a drone as well as a dragonfly. Whether in a haunting nonce sonnet for Brood X cicadas or in a sort of toxic lullaby voiced by a fracking executive who soothingly promises [w]e are neighbors &/nosebleeds; disruptors & mutagens, Satterfield brilliantly proves it's a mere slip of the eye from bewilder to Be wilder.'" Poetry. Winner of the Tenth Gate Prize. Journeying below the surfaces of nature into the human heart, we reunite with awe and find the reasons to preserve this world for the generations to come.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Poetry. Winner of the Tenth Gate Prize. In wildly experimenting form, Marina Blitshteyn tackles identity within the boundaries of today's American frontier. From Coney Island to Buffalo to the America that hovers above us as dream-concept, through family and class and gender, she pushes to learn everything that can be discovered through language, story, and design. Richard Hoffmans asks, "Was it always like this? What was it like back then? Why do some sit in cafes while others live on the street? What's the worst that can happen? These are questions to conjure with, and in asking them, among many others equally trenchant, the linguistically alert poems of form a more perfect conjure a vision of our common life that is emancipatory, clear, fresh, and exciting. Crossing borders of language, of class, of this or that expectation, Marina Blitshteyn's concentrated and incandescent poems are pleasurably unsettling, even liberating. Profane, vulgar, beautiful, and deeply nourishing, (blood sausages of languages/ i pick up like scraps for a dog, a bitch) the poems in form a more perfect bear witness to the tragedy of our unravelling, yet somehow manage to dance while carrying that weight."E. C. Belli describes this work as "urgent, inscribing itself within an inheritance of Jewish diasporic works, Slavic verse, and literatures of dreamed and dystopic new worlds. It grapples with multilingualism, identity, and the way language tries until it fails and falls apart, while paradoxically offering itself up as a rare salve. In the final poems, which are redacted, a line reads: 'the poetry is for you.' In this sonically vibrant universe haunted by Moldova, where Russian, Hebrew, Yiddish, and English, as well as Buffalo, New York, and America are key players, Seussian rhymes are distorted, 'ignorance is bills, ' and the speaker is 'still a stranger' stepping into Goodwill, where 'one man's / trash is another woman's history.'"Belli continues, "Escaping one violence to meet another, the speaker, who has been mothered and othered, uprooted and put down, labeled and misconstrued, grapples with notions of home, family, and self in a world of sobered illusions whose only firm ground, in the end, is the materiality of sound and linguistic play. Despite its serious themes and pointed critiques, Blitshteyn's voice is unshakably warm and inviting, uniting rather than divisive, shrewd and undeniable, moving seamlessly from the specifics of her distinctive world to universal considerations. This gives her verse a staying power and a rare complexity, such as that typically preoccupying literary scholars, for its unique set of circumstances. Beyond urgent, therefore, it reveals itself of great critical importance." Raw and witty, this sonically vibrant collection is haunted by exile and immigration, money and power, language and love.
