Aprašymas

Poetry. Poems that echo Satie's haunting music and refract the ironies of the Parisian Dada movement

A man who might be Erik Satie floats, � la Magritte, above Paris rooftops, thinking of a newly-extinct species of songbirds, 'contemplating grief in the absence of song.' By turns tender, wry, playful and fierce, the poems in Dean Steadman's second collection, APR�S SATIE--FOR TWO AND FOUR HANDS, use surreal imagery, recurring characters and cyclical themes to evoke the repetitive nature of much of Satie's music, as well as the artistic and intellectual temperament of Paris during Satie's most creative years.
