A Village Life, Louise Gluck's eleventh collection of poems, begins in the topography of a village, a Mediterranean world of no definite moment or place: " ""All the roads in the village unite at the fountain.""Avenue of Liberty, Avenue of the Acacia Trees--""The fountain rises at the center of the plaza;""on sunny days, rainbows in the piss of the cherub.""--from "tributaries"" Around the fountain are concentric circles of figures, organized by age and in degrees of distance: fields, a river, and, like the fountain's opposite, a mountain. Human time superimposed on geologic time, all taken in at a glance, without any undue sensation of speed. Gluck has been known as a lyrical and dramatic poet; since Ararat, she has shaped her austere intensities into book-length sequences. Here, for the first time, she speaks as "the type of describing, supervising intelligence found in novels rather than poetry," as Langdon Hammer has written of her long lines--expansive, fluent, and full--manifesting a calm omniscience. While Gluck's manner is novelistic, she focuses not on action but on pauses and intervals, moments of suspension (rather than suspense), in a dreamlike present tense in which poetic speculation and reflection are possible.
I have reached a certain age when themes, though vast, start to reappear. It is a good sign, so I interprete.

評分今年開始也爭取在豆瓣上多記錄一下讀的書吧。這本小詩集名為村莊生活,是2020年諾貝爾文學奬得主的作品,去年11月從圖書館藉來後因為疫情沒法歸還,偶爾早上上班前朗讀一小段,仿佛迴到瞭初中時早讀的時光,那大概就算是我的“村莊”生活。村莊生活象徵瞭人生的很多意義,它既是遠行的起點,也往往是迴歸的終點,是童年的無憂無慮,也是老年的無所適從,是生機,也是死寂。讀之前原本以為自己不會對這些詩作産生太多興趣,但看到這一句時便驚為天人——“畢竟已經活瞭這麼久,想死太正常瞭;如果一個人已經死瞭這麼久,大概也厭倦瞭天堂。”
