Synopsis
"Like Sylvia Plath's poems, these visionary poems are not only astute records of experience, they are themselves dazzling, verbal experiences. Worldly, wily, wise: Mad Honey Symposium is an extraordinary debut."--Terrance Hayes " Mad Honey Symposium ] has all the delicacy of Mao's] earlier writing--but now there's also a gritty, world-wise sense of humor that gives her work heavyweight swagger."--Dave Eggers Mad Honey Symposium buzzes with lush sound and sharp imagery, creating a vivid natural world that's constantly in flux. From Venus flytraps to mad honey eaters, badgers to empowered outsiders, Sally Wen Mao's poems inhabit the precarious space between the vulnerable and the ferocious--how thin that line is, how breakable--with wonder and verve. From "Valentine for a Flytrap": . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .There's voltage in your flowers--mulch skeins, armory for cunning loves. Your mouth pins every sticky body, swallowing iridescence, digesting light. Venus, let me swim in your solarium. Venus, take me in your summer gown. Sally Wen Mao was born in Wuhan, China, and grew up in Boston and the Bay Area. She is a Kundiman fellow and 826 Valencia Young Author's Scholar. Her poetry is published or forthcoming in Colorado Review , Gulf Coast , Hayden's Ferry Review , Indiana Review , Passages North , Quarterly West , and West Branch , among others. She holds a BA from Carnegie Mellon University and an MFA from Cornell University, where she's currently a lecturer., Mad Honey Symposium invites us into a wild, prismatic world of strange spectacles and innovative music., "Like Sylvia Plath's poems, these visionary poems are not only astute records of experience, they are themselves dazzling, verbal experiences.

- 0***1 (1563)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThis book arrived within the time period given and was in the 'very good' condition described. Unfortunately, only being packaged in a plastic bag to traverse the Atlantic meant that all four corners got a battering (I would be happy to pay bit more in future for a bit of cardboard support in packaging) but all in all, the price was good and overall service for books that are difficult to get over here, I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend this seller. Will buy again from them.
