Composé alors que l'ouragan Katrina frappe les Etats-Unis, ce long poème s'approprie les codes du roman noir pour en synthétiser la violence, le suspense et les personnages, dans une intrigue satirique et féroce. ©Electre 2024
Negativity's Kiss is a noir poem, with characters and a story, violence, cops, everything one likes about the crime novel, minus its robotic, skippable detail. Plus language that rocks. However the poet doesn't know how to be straight enough to just do it-tone and genre-so this is pretty crooked. Satirical and feral, written at the time of Hurricane Katrina.
The world of the poem is an international city that slides-everything slides-between being like Paris and being like New York. But maybe it's more like Gotham City, where everyone knows everyone, and even a poet can be in the media spotlight, if someone tries to kill her...
