In his teen years he slid into the waterfall of poetry, becoming an auto-didactic polymath, writing - as he says - 'sideways' to the academic poetry of his times.Though raised into manhood in the back of a bootlegger's truck, Brett, as the hometown outsider, took on the outside world, delving into ancient alchemical mysteries, the poètes maudit of Jean-Arthur Rimbaud's days, the rhythms of various tribal cultures, the talking blues, the rhapsodic illuminations of jazz, all the while gathering field notes from nights around camp fires.To Your Scattered Bodies Go is a collection of poems written over the past twenty years, a collection that speaks with a child's open directness, in fierce ironies, a sometimes bent logic, a justifiable fear of his body, of loves won and lost, and the hallelujahs of a man standing on the lip of the grave. Brett has a unique spirit, a unique musical voice.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: CAItem Height: 191mmItem Length: 127mmItem Weight: 333gAuthor: Brian BrettGenre: Poetry & DramaRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
