Sinopsis
Pulitzer Prize–winning poet Rae Armantrout is at once a most intimate and coolly calculating poet. If anyone could produce a hybrid of Charlie Chaplin’s playful “Little Tramp” and Charlize Theron’s fierce “Imperator Furiosa,” it would be Armantrout. Her language is unexpected yet exact, playing off the collective sense that the shifting ground of daily reality may be a warning of imminent systemic collapse. While there are glimmers here of what remains of “the natural world,” the poet confesses the human failings, personal and societal, that have led to its devastation. No one’s senses are more acutely attuned than Armantrout’s, which makes her an exceptional observer and reporter of our faults. She leaves us wondering if the American Dream may be a nightmare from which we can’t awaken. Sometimes funny, sometimes alarming, the poems in Wobble play peek-a-boo with doom.

Very Good in Dustjacket. 9780819578235. 6 x 9. Wesleyan Poetry. 160 pages. hardcover. keywords: American Literature Poetry Women. DESCRIPTION - Pulitzer Prizewinning poet Rae Armantrout is at once a most intimate and coolly calculating poet. If anyone could produce a hybrid of Charlie Chaplin's playful Little Tramp and Charlize Theron's fierce Imperator Furiosa, it would be Armantrout. Her language is unexpected yet exact, playing off the collective sense that the shifting ground of daily reality may be a warning of imminent systemic collapse. While there are glimmers here of what remains of the natural world, the poet confesses the human failings, personal and societal, that have led to its devastation. No one's senses are more acutely attuned than Armantrout's, which makes her an exceptional observer and reporter of our faults. She leaves us wondering if the American Dream may be a nightmare from which we can't awaken. Sometimes funny, sometimes alarming, the poems in Wobble play peek-a-boo with doom. The fact that she is able, in book after book, to write her own - and very realistically American - version of sinking into / what happens is also no small achievement. She is a poet who in the short lines of her brief, fragmented verse has given us a lot of possibilities, all of them charged with language that aims to contain multitudes. Ilya Kaminsky, Boston Review Armantrout's poetry has always been turned to the present moment. Its formal lineage is from William Carlos Williams and the Objectivists, with their enjambments of modern experience. Poetically, Armantrout has always aimed at knowing life by isolating it from narrative. Jeremy Noel-Tod, Times Literary Supplement. inventory #43930. Nº de ref. del artículo: z43930

[jacket copy] [Armantrout] "takes the basic premises of Language writing somewhere they were never intended to go: toward the mapping of a single individual's extraordinary mind and uniquely broken heart."--Dan Chiasson, The New Yorker. "Armantrout probes the place of sincerity in a post-modern cultural landscape in this formally dexterous and conceptually daring collection. [Her] intelligence and keen insight are equally present in the work's humor and cultural commentary."--Publishers Weekly. "The fact that she is able, in book after book, to write her own--and very realistically American--version of 'sinking into / what happens' is also no small achievement. She is a poet who in the short lines of her brief, fragmented verse has given us a lot of possibilities, all of them charged with language that aims to contain multitudes."--Ilya Kaminsky, Boston Review. Pristine hardcover w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding, wrapped in a bright-as-new jacket. Nº de ref. del artículo: RUB3637

Hardcover. Condición: As New. Estado de la sobrecubierta: As New. 1st Edition. 1st Printing. Signed. 130 pages. Published in 2018. The author's fifteenth collection of poems. One of Rae Armantrout's finest achievements. The First Hardcover Edition. Precedes and should not be confused with all other subsequent editions, particularly the Softcover Edition, which was published simultaneously with it. Published in a small and limited first print run as a hardcover original that sold out shortly after publication. The First Hardcover Edition is now scarce. Presents Rae Armantrout's "Wobble". Intimations, both saddened and indignant, of humanity's wobbly state of decline and perhaps imminent demise. "If anyone could produce a hybrid of Charlie Chaplin's playful 'Little Tramp' and Charlize Theron's fierce 'Imperator Furiosa', it would be Armantrout. Her language is unexpected yet exact, playing off the collective sense that the shifting ground of daily reality may be a warning of imminent systemic collapse. While there are glimmers of what remains of the natural world, the poet confesses the human failings, personal and societal, that have led to its devastation. No one's senses are more acutely attuned than Armantrout's, which makes her an exceptional observer and reporter of our faults. She leaves us wondering if the American Dream may be a nightmare from which we can't awaken. Sometimes funny, sometimes alarming, the poems play peek-a-boo with doom" (Publisher's blurb). An absolute "must-have" title for Rae Armantrout collectors. This copy is very prominently, neatly, and beautifully signed in black ink-pen on the title page by Rae Armantrout. It is signed directly on the page itself, not on a tipped-in page. This title is a great collection. This is one of few such signed copies of the First Hardcover Edition/First Printing still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean, crisp, and bright. Please note: Copies available online have serious flaws or are subsequent printings and the Softcover Edition. This is surely an accessible and lovely alternative. A rare signed copy thus. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize in 2011 for "Versed". One of the greatest American poets of our time. A fine copy. (SEE ALSO OTHER RAE ARMANTROUT TITLE IN OUR CATALOG) ISBN 0819578231. Signed by Author.
