Arts of the Possible: Essays and Conversations
ISBN: 9780393323122 / Angielski / Miękka / 2002 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) These essays trace a distinguished writer's engagement with her time, her arguments with herself and others. "I am a poet who knows the social power of poetry, a United States citizen who knows herself irrevocably tangled in her society's hopes, arrogance, and despair," Adrienne Rich writes. The essays in Arts of the Possible search for possibilities beyond a compromised, degraded system, seeking to imagine something else. They call on the fluidity of the imagination, from poetic vision to social justice, from the badlands of political demoralization to an art that might wound, that may open...

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) "The Will to Change must be read whole: for its tough distrust of completion and for its cool declaratives which fix us with a stare more unsettling than the most hysterical questions...It includes moments when poverty and heroism explode grammer with their own dignified unsyntactical demands...The poems are about departures, about the pain of breaking away from lovers and from an old sense of self. They discover the point where loneliness and politics touch, where the exercise of the radical courage takes its inevitable toll." David Kalstone in The New York Times Book Review"

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In this new collection Adrienne Rich confronts dislocations and upheavals in the United States at the beginning of the twenty-first century.

"Usonian Journals 2000" intercuts faces and conversations, building to a dystopic/utopic vision. Throughout these fierce and musical poems, Rich traces the imprint of a public crisis on individual experience: personal lives bent by collective...

Your Native Land, Your Life
ISBN: 9780393310825 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 122 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) The poet writes, "In these poems I have been trying to speak from, and of, and to, my country. To speak of a different claim from those staked by the patriots of the sword; to speak of the land itself, the cities, and of the imaginations that have dwelt here, at risk, unfree, assaulted, erased. I believe more than ever that the search for justice and compassion is the great wellspring for poetry in our time, throughout the world, though the theme of despair has been canonized in this country. I draw strength from the traditions of all those who, with every reason to despair, have refused to...
