{"product_id":"9781771660396","title":"Secession\/Insecession","description":"\u003ci\u003eSecession \/ Insecession\u003c\/i\u003e is a homage to the acts of reading, writing and translating poetry. In it, Chus Pato’s Galician biopoetics of poet and nation, \u003ci\u003eSecession\u003c\/i\u003e – translated by Erín Moure – joins Moure’s Canadian translational biopoetics, \u003ci\u003eInsecession\u003c\/i\u003e. To Pato, the poem is an insurrection against normalized language; to Moure, translation itself disrupts and reforms poetics and the possibility of the poem. In solidarity with Pato, Moure echoes Barthes: “A readerly text is something I cannot re-produce (today I cannot write like Atwood); a writerly text is one I can read only if I utterly transform my reading regime. I now recognize a third text alongside the readerly and the writerly: let's call it the untranslatable.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eSecession \/ Insecession\u003c\/i\u003e, a major European poet and a known Canadian poet, born on opposite sides of the Atlantic in the mid twentieth century and with vastly different experiences of political life, forge a 21st century relationship of thinking and creation. The result is a major work of memoir, poetics, trans-ethics and history.","brand":"BookThug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47131238138096,"sku":"9781771660396","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/607278131.jpg?v=1743025874","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781771660396","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
