Throughout ACTION, Opal engages the constraints inherent to seemingly fixed forms. From living with rheumatoid arthritis, to feeling for the edges of a sonnet tradition, to wrestling with the tenets of historical theology, this collection demonstrates that the only way to honestly submit to a form is to rage against it. However, to assume that this rage is not a kind of explosive joy?a Barthesian jouissance?would be to miss the point of poems that Dean Young has described as ?radiant affirmations of life and art.? 606 $aPoetry 610 $apoetry 610 $asonnet 610 $aformalism 610 $awaxwings 610 $amonarchy 615 0$aPoetry. 700 $aOpal$b Anthony$0956534 801 0$bPQKB 801 2$bUkMaJRU 912 $a9910137187503321 996 $aAction$92166003 997 $aUNINA
