I Speak Of The City: Poems Of New York
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
I Speak Of The City Is The Most Extensive Collection Of Poems Ever Assembled About New York. Beginning With An Early Piece By Jacob Steendam (From When The City Was Called New Amsterdam) And Continuing Through Poems Written In The Aftermath Of 9/11, This Anthology Features Voices From More Than A Dozen Countries. It Includes Two Nobel Prize Recipients, Fifteen Pulitzer Prize Winners, And Many Other Recognizable Names, But It Also Preserves The Work Of Longneglected Poets Who Celebrate The Wild Possibilities And Colossal Achievements Of This Epic City.Poets Capture New York'S Major Moments And Transformations, Writing Of Hudson'S Arrival, Stuyvesant'S Prejudice, And The City'S Astonishing Growth And Gentrification. They Speak Of The Thrills Of A Skyscraper'S Observation Deck And The Privations Of Teeming Tenements. They Portray The Immigrant Experience At Ellis Island And The Decay, Fear, And Unexpected Kindness On A Subway Ride. They Take Place On Sidewalks, Bridges, And Docks; In Taxis, Buses, And Ferries; And Even Within Nature. The Brooklyn Bridge, Times Square, Broadway, The Statue Of Liberty, And Other Familiar Landmarks Are Recast Through The Prism Of Individual Experience Yet Still Reflect The Seeming Invincibility Of New York And Its Status As A Cultural Magnet For The Freethinking And Experimental.While Certain Subjects And Themes Can Be Found In All Urban Verse, Poems About New York Have Their Own Restless Rhythm And Everchanging Style, Much Like The City Itself. Whether Writing Sonnets, Epics, Or Experimental Or Imagistic Verse, Each Of These Poets Has Been Inspired By The Marvels And Madness, Humor And Heartbreak Of An Enduring City.
