Book Synopsis Eunoia by : Christian Bök

Download or read book Eunoia written by Christian Bök. This book was released on 2005-10-14. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Griffin Poetry Prize (2002) Stunning and masterful in its execution, Eunoia is a five-chapter book in which each chapter is a univocal lipogram. The word ‘eunoia,’ which literally means ‘beautiful thinking,’ is the shortest word in English that contains all five vowels. Directly inspired by the Oulipo (l’Ouvroir de Littérature Potentielle), a French writers’ group interested in experimenting with different forms of literary constraint, Eunoia is a five-chapter book in which each chapteris a univocal lipogram – the first chapter has A as its only vowel, the second chapter E, etc. Each vowel takes on a distinct personality: the I is egotistical and romantic, the O jocular and obscene, the E elegiac and epic (including a retelling of the Iliad!). Stunning in its implications and masterful in its execution, Eunoia has developed a cult following, garnering extensive praise and winning the Griffin Poetry Prize. The original edition was never released in the U.S., but it has already been a bestseller in Canada and the U.K. (published by Canongate Books), where it was listed as one of the Times’ top ten books of 2008. This new edition features several new but related poems by Christian Bok and an expanded afterword. 'Eunoia is a novel that will drive everybody sane.' —Samuel Delany 'Eunoia takes the lipogram and rendersit obsolete.' —Kenneth Goldsmith 'A marvellous, musical texture of rhymes and echoes.' —Harry Mathews 'An exemplary monument for 21st century poetry.' —Charles Bernstein 'Bök's dazzling word games are the literary sensation of the year.' —The Times 'A resounding success ... brilliant.' —The Guardian 'Brilliant ... beautiful and strange.' —Today Programme, BBC Radio 4 'Impressive.' —Sunday Telegraph 'No mere Christmas stocking filler for Countdown fans. Rather, it's an ingenious little novel ... playful and irreverent ... charming.' —Metro

Book Synopsis Eunoia by : Niti Majethia

Download or read book Eunoia written by Niti Majethia. This book was released on 2014-12-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eunoia is a haunting collection of eclectic poems, some light and breezy, others dark and gripping, some offering solace and comfort, others setting you thinking about the meaning of life and everything we do. Yet throughout, Majethia very boldly helps the reader explore and discover, jump into danger, into depths, dare, and dream, showing the reader what a fascinating and twisted feeling it is to live within the skin of the universe rather than live on top of it. Its a must-have collection for every genre of thinker as it speaks to everyone, from the timid wallflower and the soul-seeker to the tormented, the devout, the enthusiast . . . and people all along the spectrum of possible emotions and existence. Also interspersed with thought-provoking answer this and say-it-to-yourself styled affirmations, Eunoia is a literary treat that will never lose its relevance.
