Autobiography Of Red Cape Poetry Anne Carson
In this extraordinary epic poem, Anne Carson bridges the gap between classicism and the modern, poetry and prose, with a volcanic journey into the soul of a winged red monster named Geryon. He is tormented as a boy by his brother, escapes to a parallel world of photography, and falls in love with Herakles - a golden young man who leaves Geryon at the peak of infatuation. There is a strong mixture of whimsy and sadness in Geryon's story.
Running throughout is Geryon's fascination with his wings, the colour red, and the fantastic accident of who he is. Geryon retreats ever further into the world created by his camera, until that glass house is suddenly and irrevocably shattered by Herakles' return. AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF RED is a deceptively simple narrative layered with currents of meaning, emotion, and the truth about what it's like to be red.
It is a powerful and unsettling story that moves, disturbs, and delights.
