A Confederacy of Joy

Juan-Paolo Perre

4.9/5 (32026 ratings)

Description:Juan-Paolo Perre is the 2014 Legacy Poetry Prize selected author. Echoing the haunting specter of Federico García Lorca’s duende, this auspicious debut collection hums of a humane music with themes both personal and universal. These are the poems of a soul seeking and of one searching. They are the poems of the prodigal - who journeys out eager into the world and returns having found it once again in shades bucolic, melancholic and buoyant. One can clearly see in these poems his ancestral bloodline: from Pablo Neruda to Hart Crane and Walt Whitman to Philip Levine. These poems clamour with a sure and pervasive vision.In fact, these are, in their purest essence, love poems: sometimes solemn as prayers and more often than not, rhapsodic; the love of words, of place, of persons past and present and a love for and of a world which seems always in a miraculous flux between the sacred and profane.Like incantations or the lingering lyric of a departed balladeer, they are the poems written by a new type of visionary - one that sees the world but then dares to step back into it - taking his place once again but now militantly hopeful and armed with a certain kind of impenitent joy. Born in Siena, Italy, Mr. Perre emigrated as a child to London, England and then later to New York City. An acclaimed polymath, he regularly engages in “a nifty, polymathic juggling act” with a variety of art forms.To be released to commemorate National Poetry Month 2014.“Effusive and coursing with life…each poem in “A Confederacy of Joy” is like an intimate journey of the soul through the landscape of the body.”“Whitman-esque - an auspicious introduction of promise.”“One can clearly see the ancestral bloodline: from Pablo Neruda to Hart Crane, Walt Whitman to Philip Levine, Mr. Perre’s poems clamour with a sure and pervasive vision.”We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
