Simic seems to have found a recipe for poems, and these don't veer much from that, though his humor may be getting a little more arch and dark. The book itself though, is badly printed, sloppily bound, and the worst affront (in my opinion)-- in the list of his previous publications at the front of the book, they list "Charon's Cosmetology", which should obviously be "Charon's Cosmology." Shocking and unforgivable! This is the newest book, in hardcover, by the poet laureate of the United States, and the distinguished publisher Harcourt, and it's got typos. The book made me realize that almost no one in the poetry old-guard establishment cares about poetry any more. Sad. ( ) Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
That Little Something is the superb eighteenth collection from one of America's most vital and honored poets. Over the course of his singular career, Charles Simic has won nearly every accolade, including the Pulitzer Prize, and he served as the poet laureate of the United States from 2007 to 2008. His wry humor and darkly illuminating vision are on full display here as he moves close to the dark ironies of history and human experience. Simic understands the strange interplay between the ordinary and the odd, between reality and imagination. That Little Something is a stunning collection from "not only one of the most prolific poets but also one of the most distinctive, accessible, and enjoyable" (New York Times Book Review).
