Sixteen Rivers Press · 2002
Deskripsi
After Cocteau is a lyrical and evocative poetry collection by Carolyn Miller that draws inspiration from Jean Cocteau’s surreal 1946 film La Belle et la Bete, particularly the moment when Beauty’s father falls asleep in the enchanted castle. Moving across American landscapes—from the coasts of California to the Missouri Ozarks—Miller's poems introduce a cast of dreamlike figures, including Amelia Earhart, Salvador Dali, and an aging cat, all woven into meditations on art, memory, and transformation. Blending ekphrasis, elegy, and narrative, these poems are rich in imagery and insight, using elements like water, light, and Monet’s reflections to explore the fragile intersections between beauty, grief, nature, and the creative spirit.
