‎THE ANIMALS IN THAT COUNTRY.‎

‎Toronto: Oxford University Press 1968. 69 pp 8 1/2" H. The author's second book. "Her poetry explores the real world and a haunting private universe. Both are seen by a young woman totally committed to the search for a viable human world one capable of containing its opposites: of reconciling the individual's inner and outer worlds the chaos and the longing for order the isolation of lovers the craving for life and the fact of death. The poems in this new collection are less subjective than Miss Atwood's earlier ones and the range of themes is wider but they contain the same tension and give the same impression of a 'quiet Mata Hari who pits herself against the ordered too clean world like an arsonist'." Interior - very light browning to pages two tiny dints on first two pages otherwise clean and tight with no other ownership marks. Exterior - minor edge wear two tiny dints and small crease on front cover tiny dint/scuff on fore-edge of textblock a few tiny scuffs on covers light browning at edges and on spine two tiny corner creases.

Artist Charles Pachter's vivid intense and broodingly original serigraphs are faithfully reproduced and illuminate the poems making every page scrupulously meticulously and breathtakingly beautiful. The poems by Margaret Atwood are based on the journals of the Canadian pioneer Susanna Moodie and explore what it means to find oneself thrown into a hostile natural environment what it means to be a pioneer and a woman which is the same thing in many ways . The setting allows Atwood to write relentlessly cutting lines about the tension between creating and defining a self against the backdrop of a harsh landscape. The assertion of one's will on the world as well as oneself set against the tribulations of loneliness and despair is especially electrifying. The basis of Atwood's "Alias Grace" one of her finest novels. A hypnotic mesmerizing work. An absolute "must-have" title for Margaret Atwood and Charles Pachter collectors. <b><i> This title is a late-modern classic. This is one of few copies of the New Facsimile Edition still available online and is in especially fine condition: Clean crisp and bright a pristine beauty.

‎brossura Morning in the Burned House è una raccolta di poesie di Margaret Atwood uscita nel 1995 e definita da molti l'opera poetica più completa, versatile e matura dell'autrice canadese. Le poesie, che variano nei toni e nelle forme dal monologo drammatico, all'elegia lirica, alla riflessione filosofico-esistenziale, affrontano vari aspetti e momenti dell'esperienza di vita di una donna e di un'artista che è sempre stata un importante punto di riferimento per generazioni di altre donne e artiste, un vero portavoce e caposcuola per la letteratura canadese e post-coloniale in genere. La voce della Atwood è sempre al servizio di un'ampia e incisiva esplorazione dell'umanità e attinge alla scienza, alla storia, al mito, attraverso la metafora unificante della combustione (rogo - pira sacrificale - incendio) che vuole essere allo stesso tempo immagine di distruzione e di rinnovamento. Non manca neppure l'ottica femminile e femminista che porta a smascherare con ironia le contraddizioni e le prevaricazioni maschili, ma la vena satirica è bilanciata e resa più autorevole da una saggezza che deriva dalla profonda conoscenza delle vicende umane, dal senso della perdita e dell'abbandono, dalla sottesa e ineludibile consapevolezza della mortalità. Liriche che abitano un paesaggio contemporaneo imbevuto di immagini e archetipi del passato: una poesia sempre in cerca di un paradigma della contemporaneità in bilico tra memoria e realtà, tra capacità di emendare e forza del perdono.‎
