A Village Life, Louise Gluck's eleventh collection of poems, begins in the topography of a village, a Mediterranean world of no definite moment or place: " ""All the roads in the village unite at the fountain.""Avenue of Liberty, Avenue of the Acacia Trees--""The fountain rises at the center of the plaza;""on sunny days, rainbows in the piss of the cherub.""--from "tributaries"" Around the fountain are concentric circles of figures, organized by age and in degrees of distance: fields, a river, and, like the fountain's opposite, a mountain. Human time superimposed on geologic time, all taken in at a glance, without any undue sensation of speed. Gluck has been known as a lyrical and dramatic poet; since Ararat, she has shaped her austere intensities into book-length sequences. Here, for the first time, she speaks as "the type of describing, supervising intelligence found in novels rather than poetry," as Langdon Hammer has written of her long lines--expansive, fluent, and full--manifesting a calm omniscience. While Gluck's manner is novelistic, she focuses not on action but on pauses and intervals, moments of suspension (rather than suspense), in a dreamlike present tense in which poetic speculation and reflection are possible.
I have reached a certain age when themes, though vast, start to reappear. It is a good sign, so I interprete.

评分差点被开头几首给骗了,并不是陶渊明式的乡村牧歌,更多的是沉重,丰饶,冷冽,暴晒,一如土地和自然本身。其实第二首就已经透露消息: No one really understands the savagery of this place, the way it kills people for no reason, just to keep in practice.写夜里的猫抓老鼠,Once the rat screams, it's dead. That scream is like a map: it tells the cat where to find the throat. 有好几首关于少男少女的初谙人事,性和生殖像是对土地献祭。我最喜欢March那首的结尾一段,可为全集作总结。
评分对死亡与青春的关注。有两首是近40年来最好的英文诗。
