Singer Sean (81 results)

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Sean Singer?s radiant and challenging body of work involves, much like Whitman?s, nothing less than the ongoing interrogation of what a poem is. In this way his books are startlingly alive? I love in this work the sense that I am the grateful recipient of Singer?s jazzy curation as I move from page to page. Today in the Taxi is threaded through with quotes from Kafka, facts about jazz musicians, musings from various thinkers, from a Cathar fragment to Martin Buber to Arthur Eddington to an anonymous comedian. The taxi is at once a real taxi and the microcosm of a world?at times the speaker seems almost like Charon ferrying his passengers, as the nameless from all walks and stages of life step in and out his taxi. I am reminded of Calvino?s Invisible Cities, of Sebald?s The Rings of Saturn? Today in the Taxi is intricate, plain, suggestive, deeply respectful of the reader, and utterly absorbing. Like Honey and Smoke before it, which was one of the best poetry books of the last decade, this is work of the highest order.?Laurie Sheck.…
