New Books from NER Translators: Psalms of All My Days

May 20, 2013

Cover image for Psalms of All My DaysNER contributor Jennifer Grotz has published Psalms of All My Days, a translation of Patrice de La Tour du Pin’s poetry from Carnegie Mellon.

Maurice Manning says: “The very idea of pursuing faith leads to the possibility of missing it or mistaking it or going wrong and, thus, one must learn to become comforted by uncertainty and paradox. Such is the tone of these songs of faith by Patrice de La Tour du Pin – anguish and hope are voices in the same choir. The justice Jennifer Grotz has given these difficult poems is clear – they shine with import and originality and the heart is in them still. It is a joy to have this book.”

Jennifer Grotz’s poetry was published in NER in issues 32.3 and 33.3.

Psalms of All My Days is available on Amazon and other booksellers.

Waiting for the Hurricane

December 12, 2012

From Jennifer Grotz’s “Listening,” in the current issue:

Water turns everything into a jewel
then puts a metal taste in the mouth
slowly replaced by dust. Which is why standing
in the rainy street you feel much richer than you are. Or, aware that everything will dry, much poorer.

You feel that way anyway in New York, and a little lost,
but let’s be honest, that’s what you want, to hide,
and like an owl, you’ve retreated not to high branches
but an anonymous skyrise.

Writing this poem was not a commentary on a rivalry between the sister arts—poetry and painting—but more an experiment in the ekphrastic poetic mode.
