Description:After exchanging an ardent glance on a morning commuter train, two strangers disembark at the next station. Thus begins The Jolt: Twenty-One Love Poems in Homage to Adrienne Rich, a modern-day romance in which the narrator, a drifter seeking to reinvent herself on foreign soil, uses spare, captivating verse to contemplate her burgeoning love affair with a woman who, through the most serendipitous of accidents, knocks her “off the track of [her] life.”Like a lover's “frenzied hands,” these poems, born of both personal experience and a striking imagination, undress every inch of our senses, from buttered croissant to rippled breath to a busker's soulful song. But the author's work is not a mere outpouring of passion. Weiss has deftly crafted her images to echo the bold and exquisite love poems written by her lifelong idol, Adrienne Rich.The Jolt is much more than a book. It's a perfumed envelope sealed with a kiss, which, once opened, reveals a letter of adoration addressed at once to the narrator's lover, the author's wife, the art of poetry, and to the legendary poet who inspired these twenty-one poems that aim to celebrate the beauty and resilience of lesbian love.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
