A Wedding In Hell
Simic puts chirping birds, sex, and happiness into a world of broken windows, shivering trees, soldiers, lone dogs, the homeless of the city, and a God still making up his mind.
“Provocative...a tantalizing, beautiful fusion of visions” (Bloomsbury Review).
- Prose Poetry: Explore dreamlike cityscapes and haunted rooms in poems that blur the line between verse and narrative.
- Dark Humor: Find the comedy in tragedy, where lovers fry naked in a pan and a mystery writer discovers the desolate city is his own creation.
- Philosophical Poems: Confront a God who is forgetful, indifferent, or simply busy making flowers pretty while the world burns.
- European Sensibility: Witness the 20th century through a unique lens that blends an Eastern European memory of war with a distinctly American landscape.
