Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. The language in Robert Walicki's American Crush is urgent, exhausted, and alive. These poems know what it costs to drive a jackhammer, fall from a ladder, to love someone through a grinding life, or watch a father burn out like a furnace. Written in the great tradition of Levine and Carver but with a voice unmistakably his own, Walicki finds the sacred in trench line and steel ash, in a baseball mitt stiff as a dead hand, in a grandmother watching the NBA from her hospital bed. This is American working-class lyric at its finest: unsparing, tender, and true.-Dion O'Reilly, author of LimerenceVisceral and gritty, weaving lyrical threads through rich narrative pieces, Bob Walicki's American Crush is a heart-rending ride. From blue collar work to sports, health, and life in Western Pennsylvania, Walicki's poems are deeply embodied through place, time, and memory. This wonderful collection pulls you in and reminds you, "Still, there is rapture here, in these watery hills, bluer than memory." -Cameron Barnett, author of Murmur and The Drowning Boy's Guide to WaterBob Walicki's poems throb with the intensity of pneumatic drills. He thrusts us into a world of steelworkers and plumbers where "you pounded your hand into the wall when the hammer slipped on the scissor life in 5-degree weather . . . so cold you couldn't bleed" and yet surprises us with lyrical passages: "the salt thick hills of Clairton/ where it's dark enough to start over, paint our way out into/the slow burn of daylight/ and a sky rising blue enough, we can see rainfall's painted edge. . ." These poems are powerful and tender, urgent and sweet.-Shaheen Dil is an award-winning poet and the author of three full-length poetry collections.The glorious, compelling poems in this incandescent collection prove that Robert Walicki is an alchemist as well as a poet and plumber: He transforms grief and rage into poetic gold. He bears witness to dirty construction work, stunted lives, casual cruelties, and his own injured body, honoring them with lush lyricism. His vivid images are born of an exhilarating freedom of imagination. Here suffering is counterbalanced by the magnificence of nature and the alluring mysteries of eroticism; the poems about music dance on the page. When Walicki asks, in his sizzling tribute to Tina Turner, "What's love got to do with any of this?", the answer comes roaring back: "Only everything." --Judith Sanders, author of In Deep and The Universe with Borscht This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In Black Angels, Robert Walicki says, .men will want to break you, / like they've been broken. These poems jackhammer us with compassion, asking over and over: What does it mean to be a man The haunted details shift from the scarecrow to the dying fish, from Bowie to Prince, as the voice professes its burning love: .I caught a fish but didn't / want blood. -Jan Beatty, author of Jackknife Like its title, the poems in Robert Walicki's eagerly awaited full-length book are at once fearless and gentle. Poem after poem, Walicki drops us smack in the middle of a world so familiar yet so singular, then offers his steady hand as he leads us through the harrowing, magical truth about ourselves. -Heather McNaugher, author of System of Hideouts What so compels us about Robert Walicki's Black Angels Their haunting, numinous voices The dark and tortured spaces they've traveled to reach us Or is it the fire that surrounds them, sharp and sparking as a cutting torch Perhaps it's the intimate, searing messages they bring-of childhood, identity, work and pain, yet also of mercy and 'every part of yes.' Whatever it is, these poems are a visitation. They blaze, they shine, and leave an afterimage that lingers on and on. -Richard St. John, author of Each Perfected Name In 'What the Light Wants' the speaker builds a scarecrow as his sister looks on. He muses, She doesn't know I'm building a man. This dynamic book of poetry weaves elegy, excavation, and insight together as Walicki mourns a father lost too early and seeks his own blueprint of what it means to be a man. In 'Real Men' Walicki exposes the complexity of his search: Real men call you sissy and bitch / quick as a fist bump, a punch in the gut at break. Looking to role models as divergent as Prince, Bowie, Mario Lemieux, and the foremen at his plumbing jobs, Walicki's poems navigate the treacherous waters between his own sensitivity and the hard-edged stereotypes of manhood in the larger culture. This is an illuminating book full of heart! -Sharon Fagan McDermott, author of Life Without Furniture.…
