Paperback. FROM ANNE CARSON, WINNER OF THE 2026 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURENEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK A landmark collection that heralds a truly great poet of the twenty-first century (Time Out New York) as she hones her inimitable style to perfectionIn the poems and prose pieces of Men in the Off Hours, Anne Carson is, by turns, Sappho, Catullus, and Catherine Deneuve, deftly deploying her signature mixture of oppositesthe classic and the modern, cinema and print, narrative and verse.Reinventing figures as diverse as Oedipus, Emily Dickinson, and Audubon, Carson sets up startling juxtapositions: Lazarus among video paraphernalia, Virginia Woolf and Thucydides discussing war, Edward Hopper paintings illuminated by St. Augustine. And in a final essay, she meditates on the death of her mother. Reveling in unexpectedness and aware that the fact of the matter for humans is imperfection, Men in the Off Hours shows us a fiercely individual poet at her best. Anne Carson has been acclaimed by her peers as the most imaginative poet writing today. In a recent profile, "The New York Times Magazine paid tribute to her amazing ability to combine the classical and the modern, the mundane and the surreal, in a body of work that is sure to endure. In Men in the Off Hours, Carson offers further proof of her tantalizing gifts. Reinventing figures as diverse as Oedipus, Emily Dickinson, and Audubon, Carson sets up startling juxtapositions: Lazarus among video paraphernalia, Virginia Woolf and Thucydides discussing war, Edward Hopper paintings illuminated by St. Augustine. And in a final prose poem, she meditates movingly on the recent death of her mother. With its quiet, acute spirituality and its fearless wit and sensuality, Men in the Off Hours shows us a fiercely individual poet at her best.
