Product Description
Selected poems from the critically acclaimed author of Atomised and Submission This selection of poems chosen from four collections shines a fresh light on Michel Houellebecq and emphasises the radical singularity of his work. Drawing on similar themes as his novels, Unreconciled is a journey into the depths of individual experience and universal passions. Divided into five parts, Unreconciled forms a narrative of love, hopelessness, catastrophe and - ultimately - redemption. In a world of supermarkets and public transport, Houellebecq manages to find traces of divine grace even as he exposes our inexorable decline into chaos. Told through forms and rhythms that are both ancient and new, with language steeped in the everyday, Houellebecq's vision of our era is one brimming with tensions that cannot - and will not - be reconciled.Selected poems from the critically acclaimed author of Atomised and Submission This selection of poems chosen from four collections shines a fresh light on Michel Houellebecq and emphasises the radical singularity of his work.
