Glass, Irony and God
€18.50
Known as a remarkable classicist, Anne Carson weaves contemporary and ancient poetic strands with stunning style in Glass, Irony and God. This collection includes: The Glass Essay, a powerful poem about the end of a love affair, told in the context of Carson’s reading of the Brontë sisters; Book of Isaiah, a poem evoking the deeply primitive feel of ancient Judaism; and The Fall of Rome, about her trip to find Rome and her struggle to overcome feelings of a terrible alienation there.
