Auction : Poems, Paperback / softback Book

Auction : Poems Paperback / softback

Part of the Pitt Poetry Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

In Auction, her first poetry collection in eight years, the poet, novelist, and playwright Quan Barry travels the globe in her signature quest into the existential nature of experience.

These poems explore the inner landscapes of both the human and animal realms, revealing them to be points along the same spectrum.

At the heart of the book lies an extended study of toxic storytelling as an element of warcraft, but Barry also contemplates the death of a Buddhist master, the plight of migrants both at home and abroad, the ethics of travel and consumption, and the larger question of how and why we construct a self in order to navigate the world.
