Mlle Manhattan capture vraiment la richesse de la diversité et la simultanéité de la vie qui se passe à New York. Le texte est riche, culbutant et superposé, mais jamais chaotique comme les sensations des gens, des voitures, des oiseaux, des fleurs et de toutes les formes de vie urbaine en cascade autour de l’attention de l’orateur (et du lecteur). Cette collection unique montre intelligemment la résonance inhérente de la vie dans la ville, dans une belle, joyeuse, et parfois émeute, mais toujours avec un sens de la vie et de la force créatrice, pas la destruction ou l’entropie. Ces poèmes vivent dans le corps individuel, même s’ils décrivent une expérience externe et collective.
(Miss Manhattan truly captures the richness of diversity and the simultaneity of life happening in New York. The text is rich, tumbling, and layered, yet never chaotic as the sensations of people, cars, birds, flowers, and all forms of city life cascading around the speaker’s (and reader’s) attention. This unique collection cleverly displays the inherent resonance of life in the city, in a beautiful, joyful, and sometimes riotous, but always with a sense of life and creative force, not destruction or entropy. These poems live in the individual body, even as they describe an external and collective experience.)
