Broken Glossa

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Broken Glosa is a lament, exultation, beat improvisation, pop incantation, mantric visitation, and resounding of the bardic emanation. It is a prayer, and all that seems in ruins in the world is reborn in celebration here, in the continuous song of the cosmic and eternal muse, reborn in Broken Glosa.

Autorenporträt

Stephen Bett is a widely and internationally published Canadian poet. His earlier work is known for its sassy, edgy, hip... caustic wit?indeed, for the askance look of the serious satirist... skewering what he calls the ' vapid monoculture' of our times. His more recent books have been called an incredible accomplishment for their authentic minimalist subtlety. Many are tightly sequenced booklength ' serial' poems, which allow for a rich echoing of cadence and image, building a wonderfully subtle, nuanced music. Bett follows in the avant tradition of Don Allen's New American Poets. Hence the mandate for Simon Fraser University's " Contemporary Literature Collection" to purchase and archive his " personal papers" for scholarly use. He is recently retired after a 31year teaching career, largely at Langara College in Vancouver, and now lives with his wife Katie in Victoria, BC. His website is stephenbett.com
