In Names, Marilyn Hacker juxtaposes glimpses of contemporary lives with dialogues undertaken in signal poetic voices. Using her signature wit, passion and mastery of received and invented forms, she convinces us to believe in a world made possible by language-prescient, playful, polyglot and often breathtaking.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "Hacker is, to use a trite term, a major poet. More than that she is exciting and true." -- George Szirtes In Names, Marilyn Hacker juxtaposes glimpses of contemporary lives with dialogues undertaken in signal poetic voices. Using her signature wit, passion, and mastery of received and invented forms, she convinces us to believe in a world made possible by language -- prescient, playful, polyglot, and often breathtaking. from "Ghazal: The Beloved" Lines that grapple doubt, written because of the beloved: when grief subsides, what survives the loss of the beloved?Your every declaration is suspect. That was, at least, the departing gloss of the beloved. Were you merely a servant of the state or (now you give the coin a toss) of the beloved? How pure you were, resistant in an orchard. Peace with justice: the cause of the beloved. [Hacker] powerfully brings her formal mastery and her political sensibility together.American Poet Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
