Description

Glass, Irony, and God is a unique and powerful collection of poetry by Anne Carson, weaving together contemporary and ancient poetic strands with stunning style.

This collection includes a range of poems, each with its own distinct voice and theme. "The Glass Essay" is a powerful exploration of the end of a love affair, while "Book of Isaiah" evokes the deeply primitive feel of ancient Judaism. "The Fall of Rome" is a poignant account of Carson's journey to Rome and her struggle to overcome feelings of alienation.

Through her poetry, Carson combines the confessional and the critical, creating a distinctive and compelling voice that is both deeply personal and intellectually stimulating.
