Seeing Stars,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Seeing Stars by Simon Armitage the Poet Laureate is a striking and original collection. .Simon Armitage's new collection is by turns a voice and a a hypervivid array of dramatic monologues, allegories, parables and tall tales. Here comes Snoobie and Carla, Lippincott, Wittmann, Yoshioka, Bambuck, Dr Amsterdam, Preminger. The man whose wife drapes a bordercurtain across the middle of the marital home; the English astronaut with a terrestrial outlook on life; an orgiastic cast of unreconstructed pieworshipers at a Northern sculpture farm; the soapopera supremacists at their zoowedding; the driver who picks up hitchhikers as he hurtles towards a headon collision with Thatcherism; a Christian cheeseshop proprietor in the wrong part of town; the black bear with a dark secret, the woman who curates giant snowballs in the chest freezer. Celebrities and nobodies, all come to the ball.The storyteller who steps in and out of this human tapestry changes, tricksterstyle, from poem to poem, but retains some identifying the melancholy of the less deceived, crossed with an undercover idealism. And he shares with many of his characters a stargazing capacity for belief, or for being 'genuine in his disbelief'.Language is on the loose in these poems, which cut and run across the parterre of poetic decorum with their cartoonstrip energies and air of misrule. Armitage creates world after world, peculiar yet always particular, where the only certainty is the unexpected.
