Description In Pursuance Of Books Love Songs of Carbon (The Yellow Earl: Almost an Emporer, Not Quite a Gentleman)

Love Songs of Carbon is Philip Gross’s 18th book of poetry, and is a coming of age - inhabiting the ageing body with a confident, inventive curiosity. At the same time searching, tender, intellectually agile, unexpected and erotic, this is poetry at home with great shifts of perspective, from the outer edge of science to the sensations at our fingertips. These are love poems, both to the person and to the body itself, even as - especially as - it faces entropy and decay.Poetry Book Society Recommendation.

Evaluation Appertaining To Books Love Songs of Carbon (The Yellow Earl: Almost an Emporer, Not Quite a Gentleman)

I love Philip Gross's poetry (and have been lucky enough to hear him read and talk about it on 2 occasions), and this book is no exception to that pleasure. He plays here with words, with ideas, with sounds, with structure, and with all kinds of connections, to consider what we are and how we are, often through breaking our existence down to the tiniest parts and then bringing it back up to our interconnectedness, our insignificance and our significance, our frailty and mortality and then again

Simply not for me.
