Produktbeschreibung
The Body Banquet unhinges the gates to dreamscapes where obsessions with food, body and place reign in ordered chaos. Carla Jetko uses modern incantations and seductive rhythms to lure us into the lush sanctuaries of her mind. Her intelligent and subtle use of humour, coupled with unusual imagery constantly surprises, in a realm where ordinary events metamorphose into the extraordinary. Like a box of gourmet chocolates, these poems include a rich selection of tastes and adventures that are good enough to tempt skeptics and poetry lovers alike. This book entices, loosens inhibitions, and invites interaction with entities from myth and legend. Dine with Robigus the God of Mildew, experience the bitter rites of gold and chocolate in the Olmec Basin, cruise the aisles of a surreal supermarket, and immerse yourself in toast envy. This, her first full length poetry collection, is a delicious offering where boundaries fade and body becomes banquet, banquet becomes body. "Carla Jetko's mouthwatering poetry is presented with confidence and flair, its courses served in delectable parcels of prose poems with lashings of free verse. Poetry to be enjoyed by the keen epicure and savoured for its sensuous sharpness, imaginative honesty and unnerving directness. It is to be taken seriously. Poetry for poetry foodies." Sally Evans - Editor of Poetry Scotland
