Vita Nova
By Louise Gluck
0 - Used - very good
Description
Here, classical myth collides with modern feeling.
-
- A Modern Mythology: The timeless grief of Orpheus and the defiance of Dido are re-examined through a startlingly contemporary lens.- Poems of Love and Loss: A book-length sequence that follows the arc of a relationship’s end and the difficult, luminous spring that follows.- The Paradox of Hope: Glück’s unmistakable voice confronts the essential human paradox—finding a “new life” in the very moments of death and resignation.- Austere Beauty: Each poem is a masterclass in precision and form, where ecstatic utterance meets worldly drama in a style that is Glück’s alone.
