Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Imagery and narrative harmonize the song of a world facing epochal change in Grotesque Singers, a new poetry collection by Rick Mullin. Voices in the choir evoke those of Herman Melville, Modest Mussorgsky, David Lynch, and others just beyond the range of name retrieval. The book orchestrates this tumult of expression such that clarity may arise in a reading sensitive to the nature of personal and communal collapse, and the lifelong journey toward redemption.¿ Grotesque Singers is divided into four sections, three anchored by a sonnet crown-a narrative series of sonnets linked by the repletion of last and first lines of verses, with the last line of the last sonnet repeating the first line of the first, completing the circuit. While the form is nearly identical in each of the crowns, the four vary widely in tone and voicing, each establishing themes along the lines of Walpurgisnacht, Memento mori, Wrack, and Redemption.¿ Along the way, a reader will experience terrifying stage appearances, a gallery of gothic pictures, encounters with a tattooed outcast, and remembrances of a Beatle and a beloved Cold War-vintage toy. Statements of the poet's dying mother recounting morning dreams-her wish for the world at manageable scale-speak to a new vision at the dying of the light.

The evocation of loss and lament in these poems is met with a demand in 'Fortinbras' that the lost spirit assert itself and speak for the world in its decline.¿ Grotesque Singers as a whole suggests a crown, an-end-at-the-beginning, an orbit around a planet that is itself turning. Chaos of the world is here, comprising memorable images a reader might arrange to realize an integral vision, one that may well culminate in the collection's closing picture of an old man, his his lame dog and the pair of hawks circling toward a burning oblivion overhead. ¿ In the sarcophagal words of the profane tenor Jackie Gleason, 'And away we go.'. …
