A stellar new collection of poems by the Balanchine of the architecture dance (The New York Times) and winner of the 2006 National Book Award in poetry. With Nathaniel Mackeys fifth collection of poems, Nod House, we witness a confluence of music and meaning unprecedented in American poetry. Mackeys art continues to push the envelope of what is possible to map and remap through words in sounds and sounds in words. Picking up with Nubs disintegration at the end of his previous collection the National Book Awardwinning Splay Anthem we follow a traveler and a tribe of travelers ensconced in myth and history as Mackey continues to weave his precisely measured music with two ongoing serial poems, Song of the Andoumboulou and Mu. The collec tion is divided into two sections, both titled Quag, and it is this doubleQuag (Nubs new colony Quag or Qraq or Ouabda or Quaph . . .) that the tribe is exiled in, worlds within alternate worlds where names and places are evershifting, and dreamlessness reigns. From the pyramids to the projects, Ivory Coast to Lone Coast, Lagos to Stick City, amidst chorusing horns and starspar lightning, Nod House (Nubs / new / address) unfolds as gorgeous eulogy, coplacuts of deep song, the long elegiac march of day after day of the dead.
