Résumé
"The speaker in Shelley Puhak's Harbinger is no closer to knowing herself than I am, than we are, which is why we trust her. Each similarly titled poem holds a triptych mirror up to the artist and, in so doing, up to us all, so we may better see ourselves as we are. In ever-changing form." -Nicole Sealey A stunning meditation on artistic creation and historical memory from the winner of the National Poetry Series, chosen by Nicole SealeyFrom "Portrait of the artist, gaslit" to "Portrait of the artist's ancestors" to "Portrait of the artist reading a newspaper, " the poems in Harbinger reflect the many facets of the artistic self as well as the myriad influences and experiences that contribute to that identity."Portrait of the artist as a young man" has long been the default position, but these poems carve out a different vantage point.
Seen through the lens of motherhood, of working as a waitress, of watching election results come in, or of simply sitting in a waiting room, making art-and making an artist-is a process wherein historical events collide with lived experience, both deeply personal but also unfailingly political. When we make art, for what (and to whom) are we accountable? And what does art-making demand of us, especially as apocalypse looms?With its surprising insights, Harbinger, the latest book from acclaimed poet Shelley Puhak, shows us the reality of the constantly evolving and unstable self, a portrait of the artist as fragmentary, impressionable, and always in flux. What does it mean to create art when the self is unstable and history is always present? Feminist Poetry: Challenges the long-held default of the male artist by exploring identity through the lens of a waitress, a mother, and a daughter.
The Unstable Self: Follows a speaker who is constantly in flux, reflecting a fragmented and modern identity through the collection's recurring "Portrait of the Artist" structure. Motherhood and Art: Unflinching poems that delve into the realities of creation, from the NICU to the pediatrician's waiting room, connecting the act of making a child with the act of making art. History and Politics: See how personal experience collides with the political, from watching election results to reckoning with ancestral trauma, asking what accountability means when apocalypse looms.
