Angélica Freitas - Rilke Shake
2023
French edition
Les presses du réel – Literature – Al Dante
Al Dante - Poetry & Literature
Rilke Shake—a humorous variation on the milkshake—summons part of the author's library (Mallarmé, Ezra Pond, Gertrude Stein, etc.) in poetic sketches that are in turn comical, burlesque, and absurd. At once trivial and erudite, this unbridled poetry explodes with images of parties—and the mornings after—, flashes of the street, and reminders of Brazil.
