Paperback. Zustand: New. First. In Tacoma Narrows, Mitchell Parry reflects on the nature of disasters, both public and private. A reflection on things lost, Parry allows himself to feel deeply, to ask what went wrong and to ruminate tragic moments with humility and romantic sensibility. Acutely aware of the nature that surrounds him, Parry embraces things like the wind howling at his window, an elk in the backyard or an orange sunset, and attaches them to memories. A deep mediation in three parts, Tacoma Narrows is a consideration on how we weather storms, the "currents, turmoil, vortices" of life and recognizing that one is "still learning to let lost things stay lost." The result is a courageous, moving and deeply personal collection that asks us to realise that letting things go is the hardest thing disasters of all kinds demand of us, but it's also perhaps the most important lesson they can teach us.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. First. Passion, obsession, addiction, vision, and despair - these are just a few of the themes explored by Mitchell Parry in this poignant portrait of Austrian poet Georg Trakl. Born in Saltzburg in the second half of the 19th century, Trakl was severely addicted at an early age. He smoked opium and later took up chloroform, alcohol, and cocaine. He was passionately obsessed with his younger sister, witnessed the bodies of partisans hanging in trees, and attempted suicide on more than one occasion. He died at the age of twenty-four, leaving behind a legacy of poems that capture the anxiety, passion, and exhaustion of early twentieth-century Austria and the years leading up to the First World War. Using Trakl as a lens, Parry explores the world of Freud, Wittgenstein, Rilke, Klimpt, Kakoschka, Loos, Kandinsky, and Klee, a time when Europe is drawn through the crucible of Modernism. In this blend of fact and fiction, poetry and prose, Parry flirts with darkness, plunging into a sordid and dangerous world and exploring the complex relationship between poetry and extremity. The result is both chilling and glorious.…

Mitchell Parry reflects on the nature of disasters, both public and private, in his debut collection. The title poem is a meditation on the 1940 collapse of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge, a catastrophe that reminds us that ?we live in the depths of a fluid / world.? Tacoma Narrows also explores tragedy on a more personal scale ? the deaths, divorces, and other griefs that affect us all. Set in locales as diverse as England, Yugoslavia, Greece, and the small Outer Gulf Islands of British Columbia, these haunting lyrics express the experience of ?still learning to let lost things stay lost.? Parry con-siders how we weather the storms, the ?currents, turmoil, vortices? of life, finding, at last, a possibility of hope in the creation of real and imaginary communities.
