商品簡介
"[Kuusisto] is a powerful writer with a musical ear for language and a gift for emotional candor."?The New York Times
"A talented writer judged against any standard."?USA Today
Best-selling memoirist Stephen Kuusisto uses the themes of travel, place, religion, music, art, and loneliness to explore the relationship between seeing, blindness, and being. In poems addressed to Jorge Luis Borges?another poet who lived with blindness?Kuusisto leverages seeing as negative capability, creating intimacy with deep imagination and uncommon perceptions.
"Alone"
Today I understood
While drinking tea
& hearing rain
That the word for birth
& the one for sin
Come from a single root
In Finnish ? that tongue they
Spoke when I was small.
Synnty, untranslatable,
Original sin nearly,
But softer,
Like water
Carried a long way
In a jar
In May.
