TO ONE / TO MULTIPLE, as its title states, is a collection of multiple series of poetry that the poet Jèssica Pujol Duran wrote living in and out of London between 2013 and 2020. It contains a multiplicity of references, geographies, and voids, coming from memory, objects and the present, where words become entangled with the language of marketing in order to reconfigure themselves in a poetic space that travels faster than the tube where these are found.

Produktbeschreibung
TO ONE / TO MULTIPLE, as its title states, is a collection of multiple series of poetry that the poet Jèssica Pujol Duran wrote living in and out of London between 2013 and 2020. It contains a multiplicity of references, geographies, and voids, coming from memory, objects and the present, where words become entangled with the language of marketing in order to reconfigure themselves in a poetic space that travels faster than the tube where these are found. Most of the poems have been published before in various magazines, and some have been translated previously or are here published in translation for the first time. Jèssica writes in Catalan, Spanish and English, creating a multiplicity here reunited in one form that invites the reader towards their own travel. The collection's multilingual nature enriches its exploration of everyday life and broader cultural narratives, offering readers a multifaceted reading experience. It includes a mix of previously published works and new translations, emphasizing Jèssica's skill in crafting poetry that crosses linguistic boundaries. The book has garnered praise from poets such as Andrea Brady and Allen Fisher for its introspective and resonant qualities. "Dalliance, labour, reproduction, humour; childhood, danger, memory, shopping; bodies that ooze and separate; milk froth served to a face gone blue with language, and the face before it; bullshit jobs and butt banners; this universe cluttered and shaking and beautifully worn--there's enough in Jèssica Pujol Duran's new collection to make your spinning head stop and 'tremble / in the relation'. Watch how her words bend and reconnect 'until they become recognisable / and stars will unfold a new night'. Watch her wring the necks of the black roosters of Congress."--Andrea Brady "These are configured stress patterns, lifted into song by shaped edges in troubled calms attentive and fraught, broken and recovered, suites of successive healing balms, courtships with jeopardy and worry lifted into lilts of soft warmth against torn moments. These poems enhance our breath and mould it; it is as if they record a daily routine damaged by circumstance and then repaired by this not described but glimpsed and caught, fields of images and imagination in an exemplary poetry to take your gasp into the street. The songs rise and fall but never dip and leave the reader in a state of rested lift."--Allen Fisher Poetry.
