"Refusing parallel movement, the hands/ Those empty frames. Imagine holding/ a Memory--or was it a photograph"
DS Waldman's Atria is a breathtaking debut collection, experimental and elegiac in its every phrase. Guiding readers through exhibit halls of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, past the paintings of Basquiat and Frida Khalo, and through flashbacks to the poet's childhood in rural Kentucky, Waldman's poems pause to absorb color, peculiar shapes, and the memories evoked in their presence. Disability, the making and breaking of romantic partnership, and the loss of a brother punctuate the work, informing the speaker's cascading meditations on art, poetry, and the possibilities of love and intimacy. This is a collection that both looks and reflects, turning years to be examined in new light under the poet's keen gaze. An acute exploration of presence and absence, proximity and distance, Atria is a rich and prismatic debut from an arresting new voice in poetry.

Hardback. Etat : New. "Refusing parallel movement, the hands/ Those empty frames. Imagine holding/ a Memory-or was it a photograph"In this rich, prismatic collection, D.S. Waldman guides readers through the halls of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, into encounters with Georges Braque and Frida Kahlo, and back through the landscapes of coastal California and his own rural Kentucky childhood. Along the way, formally experimental poems open into intimate explorations of fraternal loss and grief, love and romantic partnership, disability and the fragile human form, and the peculiar shapes memory takes. In one section-part essay, part crown of sonnets-the poet addresses the childhood accident that forever debilitated his hand, widening his aperture to the world and transforming his perception. Ultimately, through that experience and others, Waldman asks how-or whether-one can ever truly relate to another, or to the world.Exploring presence and absence, proximity and distance, this "gorgeous, speculative" (David Baker, author of Whale Fall) debut announces D.S. Waldman as an intrepid new voice in poetry. N° de réf. du vendeur LU-9781324097266
