Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. "He seems tostart writing a poem and then becomes shocked, stunned, by a word he's just putdown, unable to go past it, as if discovering the letters for the first time,as if the poem has somehow written him." Kirsten Krauth, The AustralianJam StickyVision is the successor to Luke Beesley's highly-regarded third book ofpoetry, New Works on Paper, publishedby Giramondo in 2013. The poems in this collection blend observation, memoryand anecdote with particular interest in American film, rock music, visualarts and poetry, and the way they inhabit the poet's everyday life incontemporary Melbourne. They create 'an uncanny universe', which hoverssomewhere between the real world and that of the poet's imagination, characterisedby surprising encounters and fleeting details rendered with the utmost clarity,full of intimate disclosures and yet somehow public in its openness, whereeverything is animated by liveliness objects, sensations, colours, even wordsas they appear on the page. As one critic has noted, "Beesley's books make forvery healthy reading. Lots of fresh fruit and vegetables, the menu not overlyprocessed no greasy late-night noir." As another has written, "his windows open out to an 'other' view, whollywithin our grasp but difficult to articulate". "He seems to start writing a poem and then becomes shocked, stunned, by a word he's just put down, unable to go past it, as if discovering the letters for the first time, as if the poem has somehow written him."
