Найти книгу: "The Palace of Bones"

The Palace of Bones by Allison Eir Jenks is an often stark and startling vision of the way we live, the places we inhabit, and the relics we make to comfort ourselves. Haunted by a quiet, unquenchable longing, Jenks expertly and calmly guides the reader through a vivid dreamscape in this first full-length collection of poems. The Palace of Bones was selected by final judge and Pulitzer Prize winner Carolyn Kizer. At once dark in its vision and light in its tone, this remarkable book is its author's self-confident invitation for us to join her in a world she knows intimately and has made almost familiar if not entirely safe. The Palace of Bones is a stunning debut.

Для меня разница между тем, что там, и то, что здесь, вообще непередаваема. Я последние 20 лет мечтал побывать в таком месте, куда люди со всего мира едут, чтобы побыть вместе друг с другом. Pink Palace – это такое место. Если ты сможешь выдержать здесь неделю полного погружения… ты постигнешь, в чем смысл жизни. Явно. Вместе.
