Silver by Phillips Rowan (71 results)

Hardback. Condition: Good. Rowan Ricardo Phillips's fourth collection is a book as lustrous as the metal of its title. This beautiful, slender collection--small and weighted like a coin--is Rowan Ricardo Phillips at his very best. These luminous, unsparing, dreamlike poems are as lyrical as they are virtuosic. "Not the meaning," Phillips writes, "but the meaningfulness of this mystery we call life" powers these poems as they conjure their prismatic array of characters, textures, and moods. As it reverberates through several styles (blank verse, elegy, terza rima, rhyme royal, translation, rap), Silver reimagines them with such extraordinary vision and alluring strangeness that they sound irrepressibly fresh and vibrant. From beginning to end, Silver is a collection that reflects Phillips's guiding principle--"part physics, part faith, part void"--that all is reflected in poetry and poetry is reflected in all. This is work that brings into acute focus the singular and glorious power of poetry in our complex world.…

Paperback. Condition: New. Main. Silver is a collection that shines with a guiding principle: that poetry, 'part physics, part faith, part void', can be found wherever it is looked for. Virtuosic in style, sharing the agility of the legendary Argentinian footballer, Lionel Messi, who is conjured in its pages, the poems shape-shift through blank verse, elegy, terza rima and rap. Phillips alchemises imaginative experience and haptic, lived reality in poems that mine raw sensation, unearthing unexpected cultural ties.'Not the meaning,' he writes, 'but the meaningfulness of this mystery we call life.' In his hands, poetry is both precision tool and glimmering refuge. Ranging through time and place, summoning fellow travellers along the way, the poems cast a silvery light, transforming all they touch with alluring strangeness and vibrancy.…
