Metamorphoses: City Lights Spotlight No. 22

By (author) Evan Kennedy

| on special |

normal price: R 460.95

Price: R 414.95


| book description |

One of Publishers Weekly's Most Anticipated Poetry Books for Spring 2023 Metamorphoses springs from Ovid’s epic poem to explore the slipperiness of identity, its propensity for change and transience. In poems that shift registers from travelogue to elegy, from nature documentary to a simple record of the realities of daily life,  Evan Kennedy focuses on transformation, personal and collective, in an empire in decline, in a world transfigured by ecological upheaval. With a range of reference from Roman household Gods to San Francisco poetic titans to musical celebrities like Madonna and Bob Dylan, Metamorphoses confronts change as an inevitable molecular process.
