A powerful collection of poems driven by obsession reveals a poetry that is at once confessional, gay, savage, and charged with a violent eroticism. Simultaneous.
Richard Siken je americký básnik, maliar a filmár, ktorého tvorba sa vyznačuje intenzívnymi emóciami a silnou obraznosťou. Jeho poézia často skúma témy lásky, túžby a násilia s nekompromisnou úprimnosťou. Prostredníctvom pôsobivej zmesi lyrizmu a drsného prejavu si Siken buduje jedinečný literárny hlas, ktorý rezonuje s čitateľmi hľadajúcimi hlboko precítené a formálne odvážne verše.


A powerful collection of poems driven by obsession reveals a poetry that is at once confessional, gay, savage, and charged with a violent eroticism. Simultaneous.
In this long-awaited follow-up to Crush, Yale Series of Younger Poets prize-winner Richard Siken turns toward the problems of making and representation, in an unrelenting interrogation of our world of doublings. In this restless, swerving book simple questions—such as, Why paint a bird?—are immediately complicated by concerns of morality, human capacity, and the ways we look to art for meaning and purpose while participating in its—and our own—invention.
