Item description from seller

Paperback. "Repose" is an exploration of the definition of cultural freedom; it is a pointed look at an obsession with production, and a comparison of natural and urban environments that shape our lives. Getty argues that our lives are so tightly controlled by non-negotiable experiences of employment that for the majority of people employment is anything but a democratic process. Getty's attempt to find spontaneity and a modern idiom by writing in traditional poetic styles mirrors a cultural attempt to find freedom and vitality. By meticulously studying the poetic techniques of the past, Adam Getty has put new wine into old wineskins: he has found a voice that is erudite, disciplined and, ultimately, free. Offers an exploration of the definition of cultural freedom. This book looks at an obsession with production, and a comparison of natural and urban environments that shape our lives. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
