Correspondences

by Michaels, Anne
Eisenstein, Bernice
Audiobook
Listen to a sample Listen to a sample
Michaels’ resonant book-length poem, a historical and personal elegy, unfolds on one side of the book’s pages. On the other side, in unison with the poem, are Bernice Eisenstein’s haunting portraits of the twentieth-century writers and thinkers Michaels’ poem summons, those for whom language was the closest thing to salvation: figures such as Paul Celan, Nelly Sachs, W.G. Sebald, Anna Akhmatova, Primo Levi and Albert Einstein, each accompanied by quotations that illuminate the deeper connections among them. Michaels and Eisenstein are featured here in conversation with Eddie Paul, one of the JPL's librarians. The event took place November 13, 2011.
