In an astonishing book-length sequence, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Louise Gluck interweaves the dissolution of a contemporary marriage with the story of The Odyssey. Here is Penelope stubbornly weaving, elevating the act of waiting into an act of will; here, too, is a worldly Circe, a divided Odysseus, and a shrewd adolescent Telemachus. Through these classical figures, Meadowlands explores such timeless themes as the endless negotiation of family life, the cruelty that intimacy enables, and the frustrating trivia of the everyday. Gluck discovers in contemporary life the same quandary that lies at the heart of The Odyssey: the "unanswerable/affliction of the human heart: how to divide/the world's beauty into acceptable/and unacceptable loves."
整本不同诗歌之间形成几条线索彼此呼应,最明显的一条是与Odysseus,Penelope,Telemachus,Circe,Ithaca有关的神话线索,另一条是当代伴侣之间的对话,这两条都描写了孤立、隔阂、爱等话题。看似表现忠贞不二的神话故事被重新诠释、反复重写,Penelope痴迷的是幻想中的Odysseus,Penelope的行为是为了表明自己对命运的独立选择权,而不是被动地被命运控制。类似主题的诗歌似乎读过,但记不得是谁写的了。觉得语言和意象方面表现平平,The loom is for the suitors, strung up like a harp with white shroud-thread这样的句子也有,但不多。整体来说中规中矩。
