Averno is a small crater lake in southern Italy, regarded by the ancient Romans as the entrance to the underworld. That place gives its name to Louise Gluck's tenth collection: in a landscape turned irretrievably to winter, it is a gate or passageway that invites traffic between worlds while at the same time resisting their reconciliation. "Averno" is an extended lamentation, its long, restless poems no less spellbinding for being without conventional resoltution or consolation, no less ravishing for being savage, grief-stricken. What "Averno" provides is not a map to a point of arrival or departure, but a diagram of where we are, the harrowing, enduring present.
Louise Glück has won the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Critics Circle Award, and the Bollingen Prize, and is the former Poet Laureate of the United States. She teaches at Yale University and lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

组诗《十月》是最爱的一篇。翻译是手艺人的工作——给予我抵御漫长时光的耐心。

评分of the soul, the earth, love or non–love, death or non–death. /虽然标记是说已读,但是这本集子是不会一遍过后就完美到达终点的,偶尔拿出来继续欣赏,常看常新,因为它实在是太,太高于我的感受力了。
评分是今年最喜欢的生日礼物 Averno是炼狱的入口
评分The impression I had during and after reading the poems was placid. It's like listening to grandma talking about life and death — especially death — with peace and even longing. Persephone returns and we have spring. But the concept of return is dubious itself. Is rebirth after death still life then? Still I'd hold a hope for an everlasting life.
