Corcoran's lines balance impressively between sometimes cryptic, aphoristic phrases and an orality encountered in song -and in great poetry. Several poems are almost like screens with a critical or philosophical text behind them; and the verse emerges stranger, and stronger, for the incidents in other books it points us to...The overall edifice in \u003cem\u003eFacing West\u003c\/em\u003e allows entrances by prose passages -often, apparently, autobiographical; also talismanic insertions from other tongues, sometimes acronyms and street names. Yet, these often fragmentary structures develop as an experiment in narrative across separate sections, \u003cem\u003ethey work as a book\u003c\/em\u003e. And in the end, nothing feels out of place.\" (Paschalis Nikolaou)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelvin Corcoran\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 184861523X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781848615236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Shearsman Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 84\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.20d","brand":"Kelvin Corcoran","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48445809623295,"sku":"9781848615236","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_41fb459d-9dcc-492a-b4b8-1386503b638a.jpg?v=1777220797","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/facing-west-kelvin-corcoran-9781848615236","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
