Known as a remarkable classicist, Anne Carson weaves contemporary and ancient poetic strands with stunning style in Glass, Irony and God. This collection includes: \”The Glass Essay,\” a powerful poem about the end of a love affair, told in the context of Carson’s reading of the Bronte sisters; \”Book of Isaiah,\” a poem evoking the deeply primitive feel of ancient Judaism; and \”The Fall of Rome,\” about her trip to \”find\” Rome and her struggle to overcome feelings of a terrible alienation there.
