Críticas:
"The most exciting poet writing in English today." --Michael Ondaatje "Brilliantly captured...Reading her is to experience a euphonious, mystical sort of perplexity...punctuated by what the husband himself calls 'short blinding passages'...moments of almost unbearable poignancy." --The New York Times "Her best book.... Her poetry's form and sensibility are quite unlike anything else." --The Globe and Mail "With swift strokes depicting the illusions and disillusions of a marriage gone sour, Carson has managed to make the intellectual life hip. In her hands, a quote from Plato seems as natural as a pop reference.... Then there are the lines of sheer lyricism, lines that send us spinning back to the idea of beauty, of truth." --Miami Herald "An exquisite meditation on love and loss that reads with the emotional depth -- and with the ongoing resonance -- of a great novel." --Elle "I would read anything that [Anne Carson] wrote." --Susan Sontag
Reseña del editor:
The Beauty Of The Husband is an essay on Keats’s idea that beauty is truth, and is also the story of a marriage. It is told in 29 tangos. A tango (like a marriage) is something you have to dance to the end.
This clear-eyed, brutal, moving, darkly funny book tells a single story in an immediate, accessible voice — 29 “tangos” of narrative verse that take us vividly through erotic, painful, and heartbreaking scenes from a long-time marriage that falls apart. Only award-winning poet Anne Carson could create a work that takes on the oldest of lyrical subjects — love — and make it this powerful, this fresh, this devastating.
