Poetry. onc 2019 2019 monographic eng print 81 pages ; 22 cm "The second collection from award-winning poet, and graduate of the Iowa Writers' Workshop, Cassidy McFadzean. Anthropomorphized animals, grotesque human figures, and metamorphosed beasts are caught between the human world and the fantastic: the witches of Goya's Black Paintings, the impish Rumpelstiltskin who splits himself in two, the nymphs of classical mythology. In sonically rich verse employing surrealist imagery and mischievous narratives, Drolleries invokes its various beasts either as a means of escape, or as aids in the process of working through internal turmoil, existential doubt, and heartbreak. This collection delves into the subconscious, the occult, and tragedies both personal and historical to investigate how the lure of romantic relationships, the enchantments of great art, and the seductions of power can be personally transformative."-- Nymph -- Saturnalia -- Mercury -- Janus -- Ill omens -- Gallery of gems -- Pompeii -- Mood -- Ten of swords -- Aspect of Saturn -- In the forest -- Death march sestina -- Labours of the months -- Venus of Madrid -- Leaving the Atocha Station -- Holy wounds -- The way -- To find a ghost forest -- Ghosting -- Clinting in the woods -- Saga -- The necropants -- Fortune -- Witches' sabbath -- Mind reader -- Dream interpretation -- Carve out the eyehole -- On remixing Velázquez's Las Meninas -- Real Madrid -- Study of a torso -- Phantom limb -- Kunstkamera -- Maying -- Four of cups -- Dovecote -- Last walk -- Prayer for the undoing of spells -- I dreamed he came over -- Immaculate conception -- Anniversary -- Oblivion -- Catalogue -- Gorgon -- Saturn return -- Leaving the garden -- The unicorn tapestries -- Line composed in a dream -- Summer palace -- Swan dive -- Automaton -- Russian ark -- The observer effect -- Blanket creek.
