Last week for the Goodreads giveaway for Life in Suspension
Goodreads giveaway for Life in Suspension:
https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2...
"Life in Suspension is a love song, a hymn to goodness and beauty."
—La Cause Littéraire
This is a collection of poetry to be savored slowly and enjoyed again and again.
—Readers' Favorite, 5 Star Review
"Dappled with transparent imagery, like the Mediterranean sunlight she grew up with, Hélène Cardona's poems offer a vivid self-portrait as scholar, seer and muse."
—John Ashbery, winner of the PulitzerPrize, National Book Award, Griffin International Poetry Prize, MacArthur "Genius" Grant, and a National Humanities Medal
In this bilingual edition of her poems Hélène Cardona is our contemporary ecstatic, time-traveler, and shape-shifter. Behind the dreamlike atmosphere of her poems lies a fierce will to discover beauty, to resurrect ancient enchantments, and to defend enigmas of the spirit. "I like transforming into an animal, / devouring who I was," she writes. Her luminous poems celebrate the imagination's power to dignify and exalt our highest yearnings.
—Lee Upton, winner of a Pushcart Prize, National Poetry Series Award, and two awards from the Poetry Society of America
