Broadstone Books has announced June 15 as the publication date for Estill Pollock's latest poetry collection, Souvenir Chakras. The title is available to pre-order, with a discount for customers ordering directly through the Broadstone Books website. The book will be available through other general outlets in due course.
'With Souvenir Chakras, the seventh and final title in Estill Pollock's book cycle, Cartographic Projections of a Sphere, we find poems of shape-shifting complexity and with a metaphysical pedigree of subject and voice.
Here, a narrative of Charles Dickens and Edgar Allan Poe offers a thoughtful and provocative examination of literary personae - here too the timeline tanka cameos of "One Hundred Views of the Mountain," its closing sequence presented as the fictional diary of a court lady in ancient China, defining the inherent jeopardy of transient cultural identity.
With the inclusion of his treatment of the timeless "The Battle of Maldon" and the memoir-styled "Analogue," this volume is a worthy companion to the previous collections in the series - Entropy, Time Signatures, Ark, Heathen Anthems, Alias and Parse Poetica, all available from Broadstone Books.'
