Father's Day скачать fb2

"<strong>As seen in the <em>The New York Times</em> Book Review</strong> <p> ""In characteristically short lines and pithy, slippery language like predictive text from a lucid dream, Zapruder’s fifth collection grapples with fatherhood as well as larger questions of influence and inheritance and obligation."" —<em>The New York Times</em> </p> <p> “[Zapruder] presents powerfully nuanced and vivid verse about the limitations of poetry to enact meaningful change in a world spiraling into callousness; yet despite poetry’s supposed constraints, Zapruder’s verse offers solace and an invaluable blueprint for empathy.” ―<i>Publishers Weekly</i>, starred review </p> <p> “Zapruder’s new book, <i>Father’s Day</i>, is firmly situated in its (and our) political moment, and is anchored by a compelling gravity and urgency.” ―<i>The Washington Post</i> </p> <p> The poems in Matthew Zapruder’s fifth collection ask, how can one be a good father, partner, and citizen in the early twenty-first century? Zapruder deftly improvises upon language and lyricism as he passionately engages with these questions during turbulent, uncertain times. Whether interrogating the personalities of the Supreme Court, watching a child grow off into a distance, or tweaking poetry critics and hipsters alike, Zapruder maintains a deeply generous sense of humor alongside a rich vein of love and moral urgency. The poems in <i>Father’s Day</i> harbor a radical belief in the power of wonder and awe to sustain the human project while guiding it forward.</p>"
