Paperback. Condition: Fine +. 76pp, new and unread book, very slightly dusty at page edges. 46 poems in this first collection from the daughter of Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath. Born in 1960, she grew up in Devon. An artist all her life, she wrote and illustrated children's books before she found her voice as a poet. Given the weight of expectations on her as the daughter of two such famous poets, it's a miracle that she published at all, but this, her first collection, won the Poetry Book Society Special Commendation. She continues to work as both an artist and as a poet.

Add to basketHardcover. Condition: New. CARSON, ANNE Antigonick (Sophokles). Translated by Anne Carson. Illustrated by Bianca Stone. Design by Robert Currie. Northumberland (UK): Bloodaxe Books, 2012. 8vo., [110] p., 33 color plates. Original binding. New ISBN: 9781852249397 CATALOG: Literature KEYWORDS: Literature Theatre Play Winner of the 2012 Criticos Prize Antigonick is a comic-book presentation of Sophokles' Antigone in a new translation by Anne Carson, with text blocks hand-inked on the page by Carson and her collaborator Robert Currie. On separate translucent vellum pages, the artist Bianca Stone has created stunning drawings to overlay the text. Anne Carson has published translations of the ancient Greek poets Sappho, Simonides, Aiskhylos, Sophokles and Euripides. Antigonick is her first attempt at making translation into a combined visual and textual experience. Sophokles' luminous and disturbing tragedy is here given an entirely fresh language and presentation: it will provoke poetry readers, classical scholars, theatre people and comic-book aficionados. 'The comic-book translation is zingy and modern.Carson has perfectly captured Antigone's moral fervour and her almost erotic desire for death. The snappiness of her translation hits a different note from Sophocles, but this edition is a treat none the less' - Natalie Haynes, Observer 'Unlike versions of Antigone that try to capture the drama's grandeur (such as Robert Fagles's translation for Penguin) or to make it relevant (including Don Taylor's version, currently at the National Theatre), Carson's aims to show the difficulty of translation, the truly "unbearable" nature of tragedy' - Emily Stokes, Guardian 'Antigonick questions what it means to translate Greek drama. For Carson, her uncompromising solutions are little kidnaps in the dark, a trail of softly glowing lamps that mark the way through the centuries and out of the shadows' - Josephine Balmer, Times 'Antigonick by Anne Carson; everything this classicist-poet writes is worth repeated close reading. This is also a beautiful book.' - Candia McWilliam, Sunday Herald, Books of the Year 2013.
