Beschreibung

"Some books don't age, or age slowly. This book of poems was first offered more than two decades ago to a critic and scholar as a book about the Twentieth Century. He disliked it and called it mere "rant."

Now, twenty-two or twenty-three years later, I am surprised very often by the topicality of many poems that Alicia Zukofsky wrote so quickly at the time. They are angry poems in many cases, some are tender, all are pensive, in this or that way."

- Karen Wittstock

Autor/in

Alicia Zukofsky

"Alicia Zukofsky's erudition is remarkable. Her knowledge of the world amazing. Her emotional intensity confirms Pound's dictum that the quality of a poem depends to a large degree on the strength of the emotion that it makes felt.

Alone, so often, in her small room at the outskirts of the city, Alicia Zukofsky is hesitant when asked about her life experience. She chose to leave the place where she lived and worked for so long, in 2005, opting for exile.

Her memories are bitter but her optimism is unbroken. She says that writers have a task, a burden: To see things clearly, and to warn."

- Karen Wittstock, New York-based literary critic
