Honey with Tobacco

(Buch) |
Inhalt: |
In familiar tableaux drawn from the Bible that have inspired great works of art - the "Annunciation", the "Pieta", and "Judgment Day" - Boyers explores what it means in contemporary America to be "blessed among women" and whether and how art can contain grief. The final section of the book confronts age, desire, and regret in a series of personal poems that plumb baser human instincts and the speakers' determination to dwell in darkness, when necessary, without abandoning the sacred. |
