商品簡介
Lorraine Lupo's first collection of poetry!
If the 'unwanted sounds' in Lorraine Lupo's new collection of poems are implacable, they are also, and even more vividly, those odd orphans of daily life for which we feel a special affection and empathy. Acutely attuned to these, Lupo proposes a funny, beleaguered, bemused, and slightly haunted alter-ego who, while opining that it's 'not the fate of words / to make sense, ' makes terrific sense out of words. Her observations are wry and often sneakily urgent in the matter of how to live. By definition never satisfied, in one poem she wants to 'eat cookies and donuts, hump trees, drink coffee, sleep running'; in the next she roams through the riches of real and missed experiences, reminding us that 'History isn't interesting / if you only remember one thing.' These are sounds you may not know you want but will be oh so lucky to have.--Jean Day
Fast, sharp, and unfathomably deep, wide open and utterly unpredictable, Lorraine Lupo's poems always make perfect sense, though I often don't know what that sense is. She's way out in front of me, and what a pleasure to jog along after her giddily trying to catch up. That's what makes me so sure she's a genius. This poetry is where, for instance, 'You put on your wetsuit / and get acquainted with the sublime, ' and where 'Weather takes the world / by its fingertips / and puts it somewhere else.' It's the poetry of everyday existence in all its oddity and 'nothingbutness, ' in other words. It gives me joy. --Barry Schwabsky
