Popis
The Art of Being a Tiger offers a representative selection of Amarals poems, from the 1990s to the present, in a precise and luminous translation by Margaret Jull Costa. It foregrounds Amarals passionate attentiveness to the here and now, as likely to result in transformative explorations of everyday scenarios of domesticity as to lead the poet to confront large-scale political crises of her day. Such is the capacious receptivity of Amarals art of thereness, with its responsive capability always already disciplined by a poetics that is at once formally demanding and deeply idiosyncratic, and its artfulness always already in the process of yielding to the unpredictable pressures of the real.
