Free Verse: Anne Carson

Показать описание
Join us for an evening with renowned poet, essayist and translator Anne Carson. From her scholarship on the ancient Greeks to acclaimed books of verse such as Autobiography of Red and Men in the Off Hours, Carson's range is unparalleled in contemporary poetry. Her work often incorporates the visual: her latest "book" is Nox (New Directions, 2010), a boxed accordion-style notebook that is at once an elegy for her brother and a translation/meditation on Catullus. Carson has won numerous honors for her work, including a MacArthur Fellowship. This reading is presented in conjunction with Big Dance Theater's Supernatural Wife, an adaptation of Euripides' Alkestis using Anne Carson's translation. Join us for a pre-performance reading that is surely not to be missed! Copresented by Rain Taxi Review of Books.

Ms Anne Carson voice is pleasant so its pleasing: But, why does street poetry (alleged street poetry) strike me (and leaves me wanting) as those awarded by the brilliance of the poetry publishers academics college educated (is it as easy of drinking coffee or tea, yet not as stringent as preparing tea?) ah it the alienation Marx spoke of nihilism suffering in a good sense of futility am left to no due no fault my own for which gladly pay the price of the meal would be paid if only it could be proved there was a meal. "What?".Why is it so often one must listen or read many works twice or more?
