Items related to Tsunami from Solaris: Essays on Poetry (Salvo, 4)
Synopsis
Literary Nonfiction. Essays. Edited and translated by Joyelle McSweeney and Johannes Gransson. For over a decade, Aase Berg's poetry has permeated audiences from China to Romania to the US with its mix of linguistic permutations, feminist re-embodiments, and sci-fi atmospherics. Originally published in venues from daily newspapers to literary journals, the essays and columns collected here provide a characteristically refreshing set of coordinates, establishing the surreal, grotesque, and offbeat as unexpected arsenals for aesthetic and political insurgency.
