AUTHOR: Ricardo Sternberg ISBN: 1894177037
Blindsight features poems written and performed by Ricardo Sternberg. In the tradition of the great magic realists, Sternberg weaves a world from everyday wondersa tango musician takes flight, a man falls in love with the figurehead of a ship, constellations make love in the sky. As boundaries become fluid we see into the life of things, the crow and the scarecrow, the mermaid and the madwoman. Sternberg has the ear of a poet and the eye of a painter. Most of all, he is blessed with a storytellers tongue.
REVIEWS: Lucid, intelligent,
and wryly witty poems, about spiders and bees, angels and alchemists,
love and sex.
