À propos de cet audio
Written with tremendous urgency and ferocious candor, BOOK of POTIONS captures a woman caught in the middle of life: no longer young, not yet old, trapped between generations, locked in stereotyped roles and stultifying social norms, confined by other people’s expectations and their projections of what a woman should be.
Out of a desperation to free herself from this predicament, she hits upon a literary form that expresses and interrogates all the places between.
By turns enraged, funny, frustrated, astute and joyful, these intense short hybrid pieces (potion = poem + fiction) combine the lyric compression of poetry with the narrative expansiveness of prose.
Listeners will meander, spellbound, through a wildly imaginative dream world of fairy-tale landscapes, allegorical insights, social satire, thought experiments and vivid surreal imagery, scenes of otherworldly strangeness and haunting beauty.
These potions are elixirs in language, some healing, some poisonous, all magical.
