He collects and collects opens a crack and clutches a shrapnel of epiphany. Tomasz Rozycki's To the Letter follows Lieutenant Anielewicz on the hunt for any clues that might lead 21st century human beings out of a sense of despair. With authoritarianism rising across Eastern Europe the Lieutenant longs for a secret hero. At first he suspects some hidden mechanism afoot: fruit tutors him in the ways of colour he drifts out to sea to study the grammar of tides or he gazes at the sun as it thrums away like a timepiece. In one poem he admits 'this is the story of my confusion and in the next the Lieutenant is back on the trail. This lunacy needs a full investigation he jibes. He wants to get to the bottom of it all but he's often bewitched by letters and the trickery of language. Diacritics on Polish words form a 'flock of sooty flecks clinging to letters and Lieutenant Anielewicz studies the tails accents and strokes that twist this script. While the Lieutenant can't write a coherent code to solve life's mysteries or to fill the absence of a country rent by war his search for patterns throughout art philosophy and literature lead not to despair but to an affirmation of the importance of human love.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: To The Letter Poems\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Rosenthal Mira\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Archipelago Books\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9781953861726\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 100 Pages\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 1\/9\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: Poetry","brand":"Rosenthal Mira","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49626867990833,"sku":"IN-G-9781953861726","price":15.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9781953861726.jpg?v=1724953927","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9781953861726-to-the-letter-poems","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
