In poems haunted by the dead "Photographer God" Marisa Frasca takes up the now almost forgotten voice of a gifted storyteller-part spell, alive with detail, she transports Sicily to the NewWorld. Poems, like some passions, can be dangerous-eating anartichoke delicately "so needles won't stick in my throat." Loss iscountered by the pulse of all that is wild-an ocean, a volcano, agull feather, blood oranges, mandolins. These are layered poems,where ancient songs infuse the modern. Frasca is bold and she can see in the dark. -Anne Marie Macari

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - Poetry. 'In poems of remarkable fortitude and clarity, Marisa Frasca, a self-described 'hyphenated woman,' navigates the passages, geographical and psychological, that allow her uneasy flow between Sicily and America, among all 'our known / and unknown mothers.' This journey in which the Atlantic transforms into 'the old dark and narrow hallway of the immigrant' is always less familiar than we might anticipate as these poems conflate past and present, 'the displaced, the incomplete, / the made new / superimposed and piled together in chorus.' Like Nino Rota, Frasca conveys depths of sorrow and wonder in her rich, musical phrasings. The poems of VIA INCANTO are operatic with breath and sex and thirst and love.'--Michael Waters 'Frasca's vision and passion are so arrived, so rich with variation, that they elevate us inside a lyric adventure. Vittorini's 'twice real' reveries and Pavese's story-poem architectures whisper like companions to Frasca's native and chosen places: Sicily, the Atlantic, her beloved Manhattan--all fueling the book's narrative aesthetic and elegant shapes. But her darkroom--part time-capsule, part temple--steals everything. It tests the heart with fire and compression, and it tests all of us with razor-sharp memory. Then it gives back a shining array of immortal human faces and stories, indelibly. VIA INCANTO is a luminous original.'--Judith Vollmer. Nº de ref. del artículo: 9781599540764
