A Village Life, Louise Gluck's eleventh collection of poems, begins in the topography of a village, a Mediterranean world of no definite moment or place: " ""All the roads in the village unite at the fountain.""Avenue of Liberty, Avenue of the Acacia Trees--""The fountain rises at the center of the plaza;""on sunny days, rainbows in the piss of the cherub.""--from "tributaries"" Around the fountain are concentric circles of figures, organized by age and in degrees of distance: fields, a river, and, like the fountain's opposite, a mountain. Human time superimposed on geologic time, all taken in at a glance, without any undue sensation of speed. Gluck has been known as a lyrical and dramatic poet; since Ararat, she has shaped her austere intensities into book-length sequences. Here, for the first time, she speaks as "the type of describing, supervising intelligence found in novels rather than poetry," as Langdon Hammer has written of her long lines--expansive, fluent, and full--manifesting a calm omniscience. While Gluck's manner is novelistic, she focuses not on action but on pauses and intervals, moments of suspension (rather than suspense), in a dreamlike present tense in which poetic speculation and reflection are possible.

这些天读这本给我带来了极大的快乐,她写普通人的生活,词语简单朴实却描绘出深远的感觉,她赋予这些人的视角以新的意义。这些诗歌穿插在我的日常生活中,就像一股坚实的棉绳,将我缝补。

评分I have reached a certain age when themes, though vast, start to reappear. It is a good sign, so I interprete.

评分Feels like you are old and tired, nodding by the fire or sitting in the winter sunlight, fearing or welcoming that moment to come. And some voice is murmuring within your head, but it's not your own. Will we return to seek what we cast behind? Will we achieve what we craved for from childhood?
