商品簡介
RECKONING is one long poem in search of itself, its own meaning. A synecdoche of verse, segments calling and responding to each other, like jazz musicians riffing back and forth in a late-night smokey speakeasy. Snippets of conversation make it through the air, across the space that seems vast even in its closeness. We are big, we are small, there is eternity in a birdcall. This is end times, yet beginnings surround us. They are there in memory, in grief, in happiness, and in song.
Here is a master poet taking stock in later years. Adrift and grounded, lost in memories that are alive in the present and also lost to history, the artist's mind cannot help but speculate and wonder about the navigation of it all. How does one chart the course -- how did one chart the course? And what was discovered along the way? Joy, awe, grief, loss, wonder ... "disappearing into the mind of the dream, / that opening," and now all rolled into one ball of what, wisdom?
What connects us with the past? Memory and story. Each fragment is a part of the whole. Without it, we exist in isolation. Friesen's deep and careful observations make RECKONING both intensely personal and universal.
Poetry.
