Hotel Oneira

Resumen del libro

Kleinzahler's poetry is, as ever, concerned with permeability: voices, places, the real and the dreamed, the present and the past, all mingle together in verses that always ring true. Whether the poem is three lines long or spans several pages whether the voice embodied is that of an adult male of late middle age, // about to weep among the avocados and citrus fruits / in a vast, overlit room next to a bosomy Cuban grandma as in Whitney Houston, or that of the title character in Hootie Bill Do Polonius, who is bidding adios compadre // To a most galuptious scene Kid Kleinzahler finds the throbbing human heart at the core of experience.
