Reseña del libro "Maud Blessingbourne's Temptations and Other Poems (en Inglés)"

With a cover illustration by Edward Gorey, this very special collection offers to the reader a gathering of poems on a wide variety of subjects, ranging from its signature title-essentially a confession, frank, quirky, but meaningful, of a headstrong young artist in Paris, orphaned early, and her vivid, self-igniting and passionate search for grace-to the kind of splendid, if idiosyncratic, array of poems, typical of Alexander Theroux, more than 350 in all, touching on Henry David Thoreau, the mysteries of nature, Jewish comedians, Cape Cod graveyards, glacial America, potato plants, the mysteries of Jesus, and, among other topics, his two young children. Here is a fund of lyric poems, ballads, novels-in-stories, dramatic monologues, sonnets, and elegies. "He can sprout flowers from his fingers," as John Updike once wrote of Theroux. Alexander Theroux has taught at Harvard, MIT, Yale, and the University of Virginia, where he took his doctorate in 1968. A Fulbright and Guggenheim grantee, as well as a National Endowment of the Arts and Woodrow Wilson Scholarship fellow, he is the author four highly regarded novels-Three Wogs (1972), Darconville's Cat (1981), An Adultery (1987), and Laura Warholic; or The Sexual Intellectual (2007)-and of several books of essays, fables, poetry, and a travel book on Estonia.
