FROM THE WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE IN POETRY 2021When My Brother Was an Aztec is a work of courage and invention - one that foregrounds the particularities of family dynamics and individual passion against the backdrop of western mythologies and a deeply rooted cultural history.
Natalie Diaz Poradie kníh (chronologicky)
Natalie Diazová je oceňovaná básnička, ktorej tvorba čerpá z hlbokých koreňov jej pôvodu Mojave a z krajiny rieky Colorado. Jej poézia skúma témy identity, rodiny a histórie s prenikavou úprimnosťou a jedinečným hlasom. Diazová sa zameriava na surovú krásu jazyka a silu tradície, aby preskúmala zložitosť súčasného indiánskeho života. Jej diela ponúkajú pútavý pohľad na prepojenie minulosti a prítomnosti, často sa dotýkajú lásky, straty a odolnosti.



Postcolonial Love Poem

Postcolonial Love Poem is a thunderous river of a book, an anthem of desire against erasure. It demands that every body carried in its pages - bodies of language, land, suffering brothers, enemies and lovers - be touched and held. Here, the bodies of indigenous, Latinx, black and brown women are simultaneously the body politic and the body ecstatic, and portrayed with a glowing intimacy: the alphabet of a hand in the dark, the hips' silvered percussion, a thigh's red-gold geometry, the emerald tigers that leap in a throat. In claiming this autonomy of desire, language is pushed to its dark edges, the astonishing dune fields and forests where pleasure and love are both grief and joy, violence and sensuality. Natalie Diaz defies the conditions from which she writes, a nation whose creation predicated the diminishment and ultimate erasure of bodies like hers and the people she loves. Her poetry questions what kind of future we might create, built from the choices we make now - how we might learn our own cures and 'go where there is love'.
