Her vision is then both passionate and dispassionate at the same time, a maturity of perspective that is just one of the many accomplishments of this superb first book.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eNostos\u003c\/i\u003e (the voyage of return) V. Penelope Pelizzon demonstrates again and again a worldly perspective, made clear and complex by her intelligence that is itself a treat to witness at play. Whether set in a Purgatory garden or on the platform of a bombed train station, these poems enthrall with language that is, in the words of one reader, \"both the vehicle for vision and the vision itself.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNostos\u003c\/i\u003e is indeed a voyage--of the mind and heart--guided by Pelizzon's compelling images and rhythms and one that returns us to where we started, but not unchanged. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ohio University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47813630886039,"sku":"9780821412992","price":1559.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780821412992.webp?v=1778337334","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/nostos-9780821412992","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
