I really enjoy the rhytm and language, i am not huge poetry reader but this felt like a voice speaking to me. ( ) Being sold off at the library. Did not mean to buy it but it opened at the page of The Apiarist Dreams of the Queen - so of course I had to. Liked the queen bee poems but then lost interest and nearly abandoned the book. Luckily I read a review by Mauberley which pointed me at Elsewhere, the last and longest poem in the book. Totally captivated. Although going back to some earlier poem still can't get a grip on them.Nonetheless 4 stars for Elsewhere. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Among the poems that open Night, David Harsent's follow-up to his Forward Prize-winning collection Legion, is a startling sequence about a garden - but a garden unlike any other. It sets the tone for a book in which the sureties of daylight become uncertain: dark, unsettling narratives about what wakes in us when we escape our day-lit selves to visit a place where the dream-like and the nightmarish are never far apart. The book culminates in the seductive and brilliantly sustained 'Elsewhere', a noirish, labyrinthine quest-poem in which the protagonist is drawn ever onward through a series of encounters and reflections like an after-hours Orpheus, hard-bitten and harried by memory.
