Beyond Proust's madeleine we head toward a \"deli\" version of utopia, crafted from hamantaschen, cupcake, and cucumber. Interludes in Rome, Paris, and Cologne permit spells of fevered play with Italian, French, and German. Painting and its processes bring bright colors to the surface, as if the poet were trying to figure out anew the nature of blue, pink, orange. Ultramarine reaches across memory, back to Europe, beyond the literal world into dream-habitats conjured through language's occult structures.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Wayne Koestenbaum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Nightboat Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.70h x 4.90w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781643621159","brand":"Nightboat Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42713580109961,"sku":"9781643621159","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_eeb4e653-507d-4ae4-a9cb-1d2d0a090bb5.jpg?v=1719616329","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/ultramarine-9781643621159","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
