Bizarních detailů je v příběhu strýčka Oswalda opravdu požehnaně. Už v předmluvě Oswaldova synovce se jde rovnou k věci. Podle něj by prý ze srovnání se strýčkem Oswaldem i „samotný Casanova vyzněl jako člověk trpící těžkou dysfunkcí svého pohlavního orgánku“. Poté už přichází ke slovu sám strýček Oswald a předestírá příběh anglického gentlemana, který se v mládí rozhodl, že musí přijít k velkému bohatství. K tomu mu dopomohly dvě věci – mletý prášek ze súdánského brouka jménem puchýřník na podporu erekce a spermabanka, do níž svými spolupracovníky kombinací lsti a zmiňovaného prášku sehnal sperma snad všech význačných osobností dvacátých let 20. století.

**WINNER OF THE LONDON HELLENIC PRIZE 2019**''Alice Oswald is at the height of her powers in...this electrifying new work'' Observer This is a book-length poem - a collage of water-stories, taken mostly from the Odyssey - about a minor character, abandoned on a stony island. It is not a translation, though, but a close inspection of the sea that surrounds him. There are several voices in the poem but no proper names, although its presiding spirit is Proteus, the shape-shifting sea-god. We recognise other mythical characters - Helios, Icarus, Alcyone, Philoctetes, Calypso, Clytemnestra, Orpheus, Poseidon, Hermes - who drift in and out of the poem, surfacing briefly before disappearing.Reading Nobody is like watching the ocean: a destabilising experience that becomes mesmeric, almost hallucinatory, as we slip our earthly moorings and follow the circling shoal of sea voices into a mesh of sound and light and water - fluid, abstract, and moving with the wash of waves. As with all of Alice Oswald''s work, this is poetry that is made for the human voice, but this poem takes on the qualities of another element: dense, muscular and liquid.one person has the character of dustanother has an arrow for a soulbut their ...

Matthew Arnold praised the Iliad for its ''nobility'', as has everyone ever since -- but ancient critics praised it for its enargeia, its ''bright unbearable reality'' (the word used when gods come to earth not in disguise but as themselves). To retrieve the poem''s energy, Alice Oswald has stripped away its story, and her account focuses by turns on Homer''s extended similes and on the brief ''biographies'' of the minor war-dead, most of whom are little more than names, but each of whom lives and dies unforgettably - and unforgotten - in the copiousness of Homer''s glance. ''The Iliad is an oral poem. This translation presents it as an attempt - in the aftermath of the Trojan War - to remember people''s names and lives without the use of writing. I hope it will have its own coherence as a series of memories and similes laid side by side: an antiphonal account of man in his world... compatible with the spirit of oral poetry, which was never stable but always adapting itself to a new audience, as if its language, unlike written language, was still alive and kicking.'' - Alice Oswald

Ghosts haunt the stages of world theatre, appearing in classical Greek drama through to the plays of 21st-century dramatists. Tracing the phenomenon across time and in different cultures, the chapters collected here examine their representation, dramatic function, and what they may tell us about the belief systems of their original audiences and the conditions of theatrical production. As illusions of illusions, they foreground many dramatic themes common to a wide variety of periods and cultures. Arranged chronologically, this collection examines how ghosts represent political change in Athenian culture in three plays by Aeschylus; their function in traditional Japanese drama; the staging of the supernatural in the dramatic liturgy of the early Middle Ages; ghosts within the dramatic works of Middleton, George Peele, and Christopher Marlowe, and the technologies employed in the 18th and 19th centuries to represent the supernatural on stage. Coverage of the dramatic representation of ghosts in the 20th and 21st centuries includes studies of Noël Coward’s Blithe Spirit, August Wilson’s Pittsburgh Cycle, plays by Sam Shepard, David Mamet, and Sarah Ruhl, Paddy Chayefsky’s The Tenth Man, Suzan-Lori Parks’ Topdog/Underdog, and the spectral imprint of Shakespeare’s ghosts in the Irish drama of Marina Carr, Martin McDonagh, William Butler ...

Over the past three years Alice Oswald has been recording conversations with people who live and work on the River Dart in Devon. Using these records and voices as a sort of poetic census, she creates a narrative of the river, tracking its life from source to sea. The voices are wonderfully varied and idiomatic - they include a poacher, a ferryman, a sewage worker and milk worker, a forester, swimmers and canoeists - and are interlinked with historic and mythic voices: drowned voices, dreaming voices and marginal notes which act as markers along the way.
