Bounty e-bog

The Bounty was the first book of poems Derek Walcott published after winning the 1992 Nobel Prize in Literature.Opening with the title poem, a memorable elegy to the poet's mother, the book features a haunting series of poems that evoke Walcott's native ground, the island of St. Lucia. "e;For almost forty years his throbbing and relentless lines kept arriving in the English language like tidal waves,"e; Walcott's great contemporary Joseph Brodsky once observed. "e;He gives us more than himself or 'a world'; he gives us a sense of infinity embodied in the language."e;
