Inhaltsangabe
Reflecting the experiences of a rich and varied life, this collection of poems challenges traditional notions of form and combines intensely personal and multicultural themes. The elegies are political and unsentimental, and the historical poems imitate a painful Jewish childhood. The poet explores his growing love of England after growing up in America, offering observations about what it means to always be a bit uneasy at home.

Paperback. Zustand: New. "Searched for Text" is a first chapbook collection of poems by a poet alive to the challenges of traditional form, finding ways of expressing themes that are intensely real and many-layered in time, culture and society. His elegies, poems of love and landscape, are uneasily sharp and political. He allows no sentimentality to blur the deep sentiment of his experiences: the American childhood and youth, his growing love of England and his finding places in which to be, always a little uneasily, at home. In "Un Coup de Des" he says: Chance authors all we do, The plot's contrived in retrospect. Spied once I still look out for you; Chance authors all we do. A sea bird shot, a woman met Ungloving who then strolls from viewAlters to fate as we reflect. Chance authors all we do,The plot's contrived in retrospect.
