Distillations (182 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A new book of poetry by the author who divides her time between San Francisco and London. Distillations burnishes the gleam on even quotidian objects and moments.

As she writes, "My shelves are full / Stocked with experience / Bought with choices / And ready / For whatever comes." These poems are timely for me. To watch how she remains buoyant despite our planet's distress. To avoid "the vicious nonchalance / Of being barely there." I trust her judgment because the poems distill not just the "honeyed lure of culture," but also rage. Together, they illuminate a path, "Searching the horizon/For some small sight / Of understanding.".…

The Premiere Issue of the new incarnation of the artfully executed Distillations magazine (subhead: Science-Culture-History), Volume One, Number One. Quite scarce already. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 48 pp. Very Good, but this rare example would be Fine, but for someone having removed about 25% of the rear cover (see scan), presumably at the location of a mailing label. In every other way, pristine; but 25% percent of the rear cover missing doesn't allow better than a VG.
