This is a beautifully written collection, it's separated into three main parts and it all flows together nicely. This was my first introduction to Christian Wiman, but it certainly wont be my last! ( ) Reading Hard Night there is a connection of intensity of content and form. Reading Wiman can, at times, feel like sliding through a corridor of granite, lines hewn solidly hewn together. Where he takes risks, as in the long form tragi-comic piece about a man named Serious, there is the satisfaction of experiencing levity and sorrow. However, I could've done without the poem about golf. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Make no mistake: Christian Wiman's poetic endeavors are ambitious. From the personal lyrics of solitude and loss to "Being Serious," the long poem that concludesHard Night, his poems examine emotions clearly, without sentimentality. A profound reverence for form and passion for poetry are evident in these artfully shaped poems that contain and find meaning in the unwieldy and inexplicable. Just as he is doing as the new editor ofPoetry, Wiman makes intellectually and emotionally engaged writing accessible to an expanding audience of readers. Christian Wiman is the author of two books and a widely published essayist and critic. He lives in Chicago, where he is editor ofPoetry magazine. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
