Goodbye, Flicker: Poems | Carmen Giménez Smith

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

This distinctive collection introduces a new type of mythmaking, daring in its marriage of fairy tale tropes with American mundanities. Conspiratorial, Goodbye, Flicker describes the interior life of a girl whose prince is a deadbeat dad and whose escape into a fantasy world is also an escape into language, beauty, and the surreal.

Goodbye, Flicker: Poems | Carmen Giménez Smith

pick

The poems in this collection spin off of fairy tales (it helps if you know your fairy tales!). The first half seemed to focus on a girl believing or dreaming of fairy tales, the second half felt like a woman trying to escape fairy tale expectations. But I only recognized a few of the tales, some are cited in an afterword. #poetry
