Sherwin Bitsui: The Next Sky, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In The Next Sky, history haunts and poems grapple with nostalgia and pain, the ancient and contemporary, to make sense of the places they intersect.

Pulsing with evocative voice and imagery, Sherwin Bitsui's The Next Sky ruminates on humanity's past, present, and future. From fragmented and surreal, to haunted and intimate, poems navigate ideas of culture and identity through explorations of land, place, and nature. As coyotes bleed, birds harmonize, and the sun beams, Bitsui questions where every living being fits into the puzzle of the natural world. Here, the ancient and timeless collide with modern and temporal. "insisting: dusk is just skin / worn on faces," Bitsui affirms that beauty is an inevitability of living.
