Produktbeschreibung

A NEW YORK TIMES BEST POETRY BOOK OF 2018

A transfiguration of Mennonite hymns into heartbreaking lyric poems, Years, Months, and Days is a moving meditation on the possibility of translation. Bridging secular spirituality and holy reverence with the commonalities of life, death, love, and hope, Luke Hathaway explores the connection between hymn and poem. The sparse and tender phrasing of Years, Months, and Days is an offering of words to music, made in the spirit of a shared lovefor life, for a particular landscape and its rhythmsthat animates poem and prayer alike.

Autorenporträt

Luke Hathaway is an internationally-acclaimed poet, lyricist/librettist, and theatre-maker. Of his 2022 book The Affirmations, Times critic Graeme Richardson writes: Mainstream poetry counts as non-conformist compared with popular culture, but it nevertheless develops its own conformities . . . Luke Hathaway, a Canadian trans poet, offers . . . a point of difference. Influenced by John Donne and George Herbert, and above all by T.S. Eliot's Four Quartets, Hathaway constructs small marvels of what one poem here calls 'loving jugglery': a feast of transformations. Hathaway is a co-creator of the immersive opera Eurydice Fragments (re:naissance opera, 2024), the song-cycle The Sign of Jonas (Milltown Records, 2024), and many other performance works. He teaches English and creative writing at Saint Mary's University.
