John Taylor

What Comes from the Night (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

What Comes from the Night: a question is raised and answers are promised. Yet when the poet records what the night has delivered to him in short, thought-provoking verse, new questions are suggested. John Taylor welcomes these gifts of enigmas ever transforming themselves. He also finds them, by day, in a high Alpine valley, amid troubling vestiges chanced upon in Brittany, along the Loire River near which he has long lived, and by imagining himself overlooking an American bay to which a haunting death continues to draw him. His deep-probing lines leave the reader on thresholds.

Autorenporträt

John Taylor, born in Des Moines in 1952, has lived in France since 1977. He is the author of several volumes of short prose and poetry, most recently The Dark Brightness (Xenos Books, 2017), Grassy Stairways (The MadHat Press, 2017), Remembrance of Water & Twenty-Five Trees (The Bitter Oleander Press, 2018), and a "double book" coauthored with the Swiss poet Pierre Chappuis, A Notebook of Clouds & A Notebook of Ridges (The Fortnightly Review Press, 2019). As a polyglot literary critic and translator from French, Italian, and Modern Greek, Taylor has long been a bridge between European literature and English-speaking countries. His translation of Elias Papadimitrakopoulos's stories, Toothpaste with Chlorophyll & Maritime Hots Baths, originally published by Asylum Arts in 1992, was republished in 2020 by Coyote Arts.
