Buoyancy Control
by Adrienne GruberBuoyancy Control, the latest collection of poems from Vancouverite Adrienne Gruber, explores themes of sexuality, sexual identity, and queerness, while confronting the feelings of loss and longing found in relationships, and the chance glimpse into a new life, while still recovering from a painfully failed connection.Metaphors of oceans, lakes, and other bodies of water, as well as the creatures that inhabit those spaces, swim and swirl their way through Gruber's languid poems, which are divided into two evocative sections. Though distinguished by their own prologue poems, both sections reveal details of the narrator's examination of life, but from two different perspectives: Section 1, Terra Firma, is an exploration of place, of what we consider solid and secure, and how solidity can betray us. In contrast, Section 2, A mari usque ad maria, brings the reader into themes of water and the fluidity of identity, particularly sexual identity and queerness.This is an honest, at times humorous, and revealing look inside the mind and body of a woman manoeuvring through experiences of longing, loss, and the fluidity of sexual identity, only to come out on the other side a more forgiving being from the journey. Fans of Karen Solie's powerfully feminist and unapologetic poetic voice, as well as the playful sarcasm and grit of Alison Calder's Wolf Tree, will glory in Gruber's fascinating culmination of land and sea, mind and body, in Buoyancy Control.
Buquê de Rosas
by Maki Starfield"Maki Starfield é uma poeta que escreve em muitos estilos, entre os quais está o haiku. Ela estudou haiku japonês tradicional sob Keishu Ogawa e Minoru Ozawa, e trabalhou com Banya Natsuishi para promover o haiku de vanguarda em escala mundial. O haiku de Maki tende a pender para o lado tradicional ao escrever em japonês, ou seja, em forma fixa, usando palavras das estações (“kigo”) e a métrica de 5-7-5 sílabas, mas ao escrever em inglês ou traduzir para o inglês, ela escreve em forma livre. A forma livre não exige palavras das estações nem métrica 5-7-5, e, em vez disso, exige a falta de um ritmo apropriado, e que seja curto o suficiente para maximizar os efeitos “kire” tradicionais do haiku (“kire” é frequentemente traduzido como “corte”, mas na conotação japonesa original, é mais conhecido como "excitação da imagem") com seu uso de palavras-chave (as palavras das quatro estações são tipos de palavras-chave)." - Kika Hotta, no Prefácio.
