While\u003cstrong\u003e t\u003c\/strong\u003ehe metonymic postmodern fad is of no interest to her, she favors the hymnal and the solar with tragic twists, with divine praise and self-dissolution clashing, in a language purified of every redundancy, but not lacking in allusive complexity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eThe God's Orbit\u003c\/em\u003e, her most successful collection of poetry, Christi strikes the reader by her seraphic serenity, inspired, as she confesses, by Fra Angelico's mural paintings; hers is the attitude of someone who, after crossing a Dantean bolgia, (a hell's ditch), after vanquishing the monsters of the Inferno, has left the drama of lucidity behind and reached a point in which reality, though still uncontrollable, has no more obscure niches. In naturally flowing lines, full of a sober inner musicality, that support a painful and clear vision of life, the often inimical gods slowly turn into God, the all-pacifying. The book is like a shout to the sky and divinity, forceful, convincing, defying today's society and pointing to where salvation might come from.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aura Christi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1869848268\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781869848262\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Mica Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/29\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 74\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.23lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.18d","brand":"Aura Christi","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44126827512063,"sku":"9781869848262","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1936ff78-50d5-41f2-a267-daa0b5dd5a63.jpg?v=1687450387","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-gods-orbit-aura-christi-9781869848262","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
