The Buzzing of the Blue Guitar

By Peter E. Murphy

In The Buzzing of the Blue Guitar, a tick-tock beat pulses through the poetry, an ostinato rhythm colouring the uncertainty of life. Taking his cue from Picasso's "Old Guitarist," Wallace Stevens's "The Man with the Blue Guitar," and David Hockney's etchings The Blue Guitar, Peter E. Murphy moves between the bedroom and the battlefield, between Schr dinger's box and the ruins of Guernica, asking what survives translation: desire into song, atrocity into art, a life into whatever comes after.
