"Shortlisted TS Eliot Prize Poets Speak to a Disrupted World"
"The 10 listed collections range from 'zany intimacy' by Sharon Olds to explorations of Black identity from Ishion Hutchinson and Jason Allen-Paisant. 'We are confident that all 10 shortlisted titles not only meet the high standards they set themselves but speak most effectively to, and of, their moment,' said Irish poet and judging chair Paul Muldoon, a past winner of the prize. 'If there's a single word for that moment it is surely 'disrupted', and all these poets properly reflect that disruption.'"

What Sparks Poetry:
Brian Teare on Other Arts
"In exceeding the frame of visual description, ekphrasis in the expanded field refuses to dwell only on the surface experience of visual art—or film or dance or music. Going outside of the frame and beneath the surface, it engages with another art by reconceptualizing and recontextualizing it: in its historical and cultural and subcultural contexts, its critical reception, its making and materials." |
