Popeye in Belgrade

By James Sutherland-Smith

Set among places of recent upheaval, this striking collection of poetry skillfully documents the aftershock of moral and spiritual earthquakes, often within intimate contexts. Life in the Balkans, Eastern Europe, and elsewhere are juxtaposed with private experiences, combining both public and personal feeling. With a strong focus on how the social and political intrude into individual lives, this anthology also explores a strong thematic element in the presence of music, both as a unique level of meaning and an elusive otherness.
