Beschreibung

"Browning's Shorter Poems" showcases Robert Browning's mastery of poetic form and psychological depth. With a collection that spans several decades, Browning's verse employs dramatic monologues, lyrical expressions, and vivid imagery to explore themes of love, faith, and human struggle. His unique stylistic choices, including intricate rhyme schemes and compelling narrative techniques, situate him as a transformative figure in Victorian poetry, pushing boundaries while retaining accessibility that resonates with the modern reader. Browning's engagement with social concerns, including the complexities of identity and morality, is particularly evident in pieces such as "The Last Ride Together" and "Meeting at Night," where personal emotion interweaves seamlessly with broader existential queries. Robert Browning (1812-1889) emerged from a background rich in literary influence, encouraged by a self-taught education and an early passion for poetry. His marriage to fellow poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning deeply informed his work, fostering an environment conducive to creative exploration. The evolution of his poetic voice reflects his own intellectual pursuits and keen observations of human nature, cementing his reputation as one of the foremost poets of the Victorian era. This collection is essential for readers seeking not only to appreciate Browning's lyrical genius but also to engage with the profound human experiences he captures so expertly. Whether you are a seasoned poetry lover or new to Browning's work, "Browning's Shorter Poems" serves as a vital entry point into the rich tapestry of Victorian literature.

    The Kingdom of Surfaces - Poems

    In The Kingdom of Surfaces, award-winning poet Sally Wen Mao examines art and history—especially the provenance of objects such as porcelain, silk, and pearls—to frame an important conversation on beauty, empire, commodification, and violence. In lyric poems and wide-ranging sequences, Mao interrogates gendered expressions such as the contemporary “leftover women,” which denotes unmarried women, and the historical “castle-toppler,” a term used to describe a concubine whose beauty ruins an emperor and his empire. These poems also explore the permeability of object and subject through the history of Chinese women in America, labor practices around the silk loom, and the ongoing violence against Asian people during the COVID-19 pandemic. 
     
    At its heart, The Kingdom of Surfaces imagines the poet wandering into a Western fantasy, which covets, imitates, and appropriates Chinese aesthetics via Chinamania and the nineteenth-century Aesthetic Movement, while perpetuating state violence upon actual lives. The title poem is a speculative recasting of Through the Looking-Glass, set in a surreal topsy-turvy version of the eponymous China-themed 2015 Metropolitan Museum of Art Gala. The Kingdom of Surfaces is a brilliantly conceived call for those who recognize the horrors of American exceptionalism to topple the empire that values capital over lives and power over liberation.

    In sleepy, rural North Wales, Frankie Gibbs, a recently laid off, aimless twenty-year-old on Universal Credit, wants nothing more than to keep his younger brother out of the care system. He single-handedly takes this upon himself while their alcoholic, cocaine-addict, single-parent father, Guy Gibbs, heaps misery on their lives through systematic abuse and his never-ending wild parties. After Guy is sent to prison, Frankie is coerced into opening his home to Justin, an acquaintance from his school days now turned drug dealer, while his own addiction and self-worth spiral beyond recognition. 
    ''One visit is an astonishing debut. It's raw, shocking, disturbing, insightful and dark, pretty much from start to finish. There are flashes of wit but, in the main, it's a full-frontal assault with the truth of physical, psychological, social and political deterioration in a beautiful part of Wales.''

    The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
    But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
    At first glance, it’s easy to assemble.  But once you add those who simply have to be included then you already have too many and the perennially hard part of whittling them down to ten begins.  Each and every one of these chosen are masters of their art and craft.  Genius in every name.
