Description:
<i>Translation is the extrovert, metaphor the introvert. Without translation, there is no communication. Without metaphor, there is no art.</i><br><br><i>Lost Originals</i>, the latest collection of poetry from writer and scholar David Goldstein, explores the potential of metaphoric translation to contribute to a conversation about originality, the power of objects, and the boundaries of poetry and language.<br><br>Taking as his foundation the notion that every act of speaking is a translation from one sort of experience to another, Goldstein's innovative poetic 'experiment' represent an elegy for a series of "lost originals" a group of objects and experiences that can only be accessed through language. In this way, Goldstein's encounters with a menagerie of objects and sources&mdash;from porcelain figurines and maps, to computer-generated email spam and journalism about sharks&mdash;yield a myriad of voices, giving metaphorical speech to the unspeaking or unspoken, and at the same time, uncovering a surprising beauty in language normally viewed as impenetrable or utilitarian.
