Trade Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. A Near Fine copy in dark green printed wraps with minimal shelfwear. Internally clean and free of markings with an uncreased spine. Translated to English by Patrick Friesen and Per Brask. // 'The English translation of new work from a celebrated Danish poet. Frayed Opus for Strings & Wind Instruments is a collection of poems that zooms in and out of places and states of mind, from a lit bicycle shed in the back yard to a root canal in November, from a typhoon in Hong Kong to instincts astray in various Copenhagen neigbourhoods. Elegantly translated by Canadian collaborators Per Brask and Patrick Friesen, these dreamlike poems attempt, with honesty and humour, to fathom what it is to inhabit a specifically unspecific point in life--not to mention in the Universe.' -- publisher. …

Trade Paperback. Zustand: Near Fine. A Near Fine copy with a touch of edgewear, else minimal shelfwear with an uncreased spine. Internally clean and free of markings. // 'RECKONING is one long poem in search of itself, its own meaning. A synecdoche of verse, segments calling and responding to each other, like jazz musicians riffing back and forth in a late-night smokey speakeasy. Snippets of conversation make it through the air, across the space that seems vast even in its closeness. We are big, we are small, there is eternity in a birdcall. This is end times, yet beginnings surround us. They are there in memory, in grief, in happiness, and in song. Here is a master poet taking stock in later years. Adrift and grounded, lost in memories that are alive in the present and also lost to history, the artist's mind cannot help but speculate and wonder about the navigation of it all. How does one chart the course -- how did one chart the course? And what was discovered along the way? Joy, awe, grief, loss, wonder . 'disappearing into the mind of the dream, / that opening,' and now all rolled into one ball of what, wisdom? What connects us with the past? Memory and story. Each fragment is a part of the whole. Without it, we exist in isolation. Friesen's deep and careful observations make RECKONING both intensely personal and universal.' -- publisher.…

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. The story of one man struggling to express his personal views within a society that demands conformity. Peter is trying to live a good life, a faithful life. When he begins to question the doctrine of his Mennonite church and his faith in general, he is ostracized from the community. A decree by the church forces his wife to abandon him if not in person, then in spirit. The strain of domestic and community pressures forces Peter deeper into isolation, but he still refuses to stop questioning. Integrating dance, text and tragedy, The Shunning blends movement and spoken word that will carry you through a sea of emotions.

Paperback. Zustand: New. There is something of the elemental in Outlasting the Weather, Patrick Friesen's Selected and New poems 1994-2020. Over time, the elements shape new worlds. Wind carves a stone bowl, the earth receives our dead. The poems are archaeological digs through layers of a life lived without the certainty of belief. Covering twenty-six years and selected from eight previous volumes, the poems in this collection reject wisdom; rather, they are infused with the kind of knowledge that comes from having weathered many seasons yet still remaining open to wonder. Perhaps, writes Friesen of his late father, you are in that grave where we laid you but I am child enough to think the sky. And for a moment we all look up, transported, filled with the endless possibilities offered by a poet for whom poetry is a way of thinking. The volume wraps up with, "New Work," twenty-seven new poems that display the poet's vast and prodigious talents.…
