Cutting the Stems de Virginie Lalucq

Cutting the Stems

Autor Virginie Lalucq Traducere de Celine Bourhis, Claire McQuerry
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 oct 2023
A playful exploration of language, gender, and identity through experimental poetry.Cutting the Stems, translated from the French, is a long poem that blends gardening manuals, etymological dictionaries, and gemstone guides into an "un-poetic" pastiche. Wordplay and linguistic borrowings create a surreal exchange between "she" and "he," blurring gender lines and questioning poetic norms. As the florist-speaker tends to words, cutting stems mirrors cutting language, allowing sentences to bloom.
This collection invites readers to:
  • Discover the instability of language.
  • Question poetic conventions.
  • Explore fluid identities.
Perfect for lovers of experimental literature and contemporary poetry, this dual-language edition enriches the experience. Experience the beauty of language with Virginie Lalucq's unique voice.

She has been member of the editorial collective for the journal Nioques for twenty years. The Center for the Study of Poetry (ENS) in Lyons describes Lalucq's poetry: "A certain desire to experiment characterizes her work, a desire that translates most clearly in the number of collaborative performances and writing projects."

Her research interests include postcolonial studies, postmodern literature, and life writing. Prior to her teaching appointment, she worked as an editorial assistant at Dalkey Archive Press and published interviews with authors in Context. Claire McQuerry's poetry and translations have appeared in Denver Quarterly Review, Tin House, Gettysburg Review, Poetry Northwest, Permafrost, and other journals. Her poetry collection Lacemakers (Southern Illinois University Press) won the Crab Orchard First Book Prize and was a finalist for the Washington State Book Award.
