Description:
Erin ON: Porcupine's Quill, 2014 Book. As New. Soft cover. Signed by Author(s). 1st Canadian Edition.. If haiku in Japanese literature is a word picture that seizes a moment, the sonnet in the English tradition is a sound picture that makes time stand still. The Seasons is a book of whispers spoken by a voice to his beloved. Inspired by the original meaning of the word 'sonnet' ('a little sound'), Bruce Meyer transforms the poetic framework to record the intimate moments in the lives of two people. The accumulation of those moments is what comprises the lives of those two people, and the reader is invited to eavesdrop on the utterances and promises of their lives. Written over a ten-year period and finally collected here, The Seasons takes up the process of a century of sonnets where each, as in the tradition of Neruda's 100 Sonnets, is a little whisper in the ear of the lover. 125p. Author inscription on title page.
