Alicia Suskin Ostriker

Green Age (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The variety of subjects in Green Age is characteristic of Alicia Suskin Ostriker's writing: from the opening poem, "Fifty," funny, courageous, and defiant, to a set of birthday poems for a grown daughter; from emulations of the Persian mystic Rumi, to the provactive "Meditation in Seven Days," whose central assumption is that we may find in the Bible traces of a Canaanite goddess whose worship was forbidden with the advent of patriarchal monotheism.
