Beschreibung
A vibrant and insightful essay collection about life as a poet in Southern CaliforniaPoetry and Hollywood may not seem compatible in anyone's book. But acclaimed poet, novelist, and critic Carol Muske-Dukes finds common ground for both in meditations on movie sets and metaphors, on the big screen and the luminous focus of a haiku.I Married the Icepick Killeroffers the reader ways to reimagine the Imagination itself. Former California Poet Laureate Muske-Dukes explores Southern California's unexpected poetry, from Emily Dickinson on freeway billboards to poet-script doctors rewriting action-flick dialogue. Moving personal essays recount the story of Muske-Dukes's romance with her late husband, actor David Coleman Dukes, whom she met in Italy and relocated with in Los Angeles. Muske-Dukes sharpens her astute gaze as she addresses contradictions and convergences between belle lettres and the ever-surprising City of Angels.This ebook was originally published asMarried to the Icepick Killer.
