The Names (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Tim Lilburn | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The Names is personal and familial archeology, an extemporal dig giving spectres back to their bodies. With its lines sped up and dazzingly associative, Tim Lilburn's cocktail of obsessions -- confession, ontology, mystical theology, humour and extreme, fleet, apt weirdness -- marches through on full display. He pulls in an even wilder cast of characters than his previous collections managed: Jan Ruusbroec and Marguerite Porete brush past aunts, uncles, and unidentified creatures steering the boats of language past fog-draped trees. In Lilburn's latest collection, we are immersed in a realism of remarkable proportions, as though haunted memory comprised both texture and text, and combined formed the elemental fibres of a perilous present.
