Rarity and the Poetic (eBook, PDF)

The Gesture of Small Flowers

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Rarity is a quality by which things flowers, leaves, light, sound fleetingly appear and disappear, leaving in their wake a resonance of something we just thought we had glimpsed. Each of the nine chapters in this book pursues such intimations of rarity in poetic ideas, images, and silences.
