Interrogations at Noon: Poems by Dana Gioia (English) Paperback Book. What unites the poems is not a single approach but their resonant musicality and powerful but understated emotion. Interrogations at Noon by Dana Gioia. Title Interrogations at Noon. Author Dana Gioia. Interrogations at Noon by Dana Gioia Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Winner of the American Book AwardDana Gioia, an internationally known poet and critic, is notably prolific with his essays, reviews, translations, and anthologies. But like his celebrated teacher, Elizabeth Bishop, Gioia is meticulously painstaking and self-critical about his own poems. In an active 25-year career he has published only two previous volumes of poetry. Although Gioia is often recognized as a leading force in the recent revival of rhyme and meter in American poetry, his own work does not fit neatly into any one style."Interrogations at Noon" displays an extraordinary range of style and sensibility—from rhymed couplets to free verse, from surrealist elegy to satirical ballad. What unites the poems is not a single approach but their resonant musicality and powerful but understated emotion. This new collection explores the uninvited epiphanies of love and marriage, probing the quiet mysteries of a seemingly settled domestic life. Meditating on the inescapable themes of lyric poetry—time, mortality, nature, and the contradictions of the human heart—Gioia turns them to provocative and unexpected ends.
