Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This is Barry Seiler's fourth full-length collection of poems, which extends the range of his themes and poetic strategies. Readers of his earlier work will recognise Seiler's concern with family loss, popular music and film, Jewish experience, and the intensities and disappointments inheren…t in the act of writing. But they will also find a series of brief, inventive poems on the inner life of domestic objects such as armchairs and vases, the best poems of this kind since Francis Ponge, and two long poems that anchor the book: "American Misfortune" and "Turns". "American Misfortune", a narrative sequence, meditates on the fragility of the lives we construct, the stories we tell to explain ourselves to ourselves. "Turns", a journal of the seasons, uses lyrical fragments to chart the minds daily negotiations between the inner and the outer world, seeking the peace offered by the quiet rituals of rural life during the changing course of the year. Sustaining the collection are motifs of falls and falling, from autumn to waterfalls, from stumbles to Eden.By turns hopeful and sceptical, the book considers the consolations of art and its limits -- the wish that a life of writing will justify that life, and the fear that it may not. And holding everything together is a distinctive voice that brings to each new topic an attitude and manner of speaking that is Seiler's alone. We hear a wised-up wit softened by a sympathetic understanding of failure, a balance between the struggle to live meaningfully and the grace to accept the simple pleasures of living in the moment. In these poems, Barry Seiler has perfect pitch, and he sounds like nobody else. A collection of poems that considers the consolations of art and its limits - the wish that a life of writing can justify that life, and the fear that it may not.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. "Black Leaf" sustains and deepens the themes and images first confronted in Seiler's 1994 book, "The Waters of Forgetting". Whether attentive to the poet in Paris, or to Isaac Bashevis Singer in Hoboken, or to Sam Cooke on the radio, these poems carry the reader through the post-war pre-mill…enial world, sifting through layers of history, popular culture, literature, and personal mythology to discover the fragments out of which a self can be shaped. In lines of wry humour and regret, of tension and the longing for release, the figure of the black leaf drifts from the first poem to the final sequence, suggestive of that moment before creation, before the pages turn white with possibility, or that thin screen upon which the imagination projects its stories to counter the stories told by time. Contains poems that carry the reader through the post-war pre-millenial world, sifting through layers of history, popular culture, literature, and personal mythology to discover the fragments out of which a self can be shaped. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Seiler brings together poems that spring from the tensions between memory and forgetting, the past and the present, the daily and the eternal. Whether he is writing about his family or popular music or the violent horrors of our age, Seiler's poems are always concerned with time, the difficu…lties of living in it and living with it. Moving through these various histories, both personal and public, Seiler juxtaposes small moments with great events, trying to find the connecting threads that will pull the pieces into a form we can make sense of and live by. By the end of the book, he has immersed himself in the memories that trouble and sustain us, seeking comfort and wisdom in "The Bath of Peace, the Waters of Forgetting". Brings together poems that spring from the tensions between memory and forgetting, the past and the present, the daily and the eternal. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
