Like a Sea (Iowa Poetry Prize),Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Drawing equally from Wallace Stevens, Gertrude Stein, John Berryman, and Robert Frost, Samuel Amadons awardwinning Like a Sea is a collection of poems where personality is foregrounded and speech is both bizarre and familiar. Central to this weirdly talky work is Each H, a sequence of eleven monologues and dialogues wherein an unknown number of speakers examine their collective and singular identities while simultaneously distorting them. From a sequence of pareddown sonnets to a more traditional lyric to a procedural collage inspired by J. D. Salinger, Ezra Pound, Robert Lowell, Walter Benjamin, Jane Kenyon, JorisKarl Huysmans, Primo Levi, Eugenio Montale, and Edwin Arlington Robinson, Like a Sea is a book of significant variation and originality.Amadons electric collection begins with the line I could not sound like anyone but me, and through a wide range of forms and styles and voices he tests the true limits of that statement. The image of a halfabandoned Hartford, Connecticut, remains in the background of these poems, casting a tone of brokenness and haplessness. Ultimately Amadons poems present the confusion and fear of the current moment, of Stevenss river that flows nowhere, like a sea, equally alongside its joyful ridiculousness and possibility. Rather than create worlds, they point out what a strange world already exists.
