{"title":"Gabriele Tinti","description":null,"products":[{"product_id":"confessions-book-gabriele-tinti-9781912475742","title":"Confessions","description":"\"This book is a confessio vitae, an expression of the drama every person experiences when separated from the divine, when pushed between hope and despair, illusion and disappointment, darkness and light\"  In this highly distinctive artistic collaboration, Gabriele Tinti and Andres Serrano have produced a haunting meditation on religion, violence, and physicality. Tinti, the prize-winning author of the collection Ruins, has produced a sequence of poems that are as remarkable for their lyrical expressiveness as for their forceful compactness. Often disquieting and always uncompromising in their vision of the human capacity to do harm and be harmed, these poems are Tinti's most impressive body of work to date.  Tinti's verses accompany a series of images composed by Serrano-one of the most highly regarded artists of our time. Serrano's works engage provocatively with the visual legacy of the Christian and classical traditions, while also embodying a very particular kind of beauty. Both the poems and the images in this volume are a major achievement in their own right; together they make for an essential collection.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49751818895633,"sku":"NGR9781912475742","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/191247574X.jpg?v=1769508748"},{"product_id":"bleedings-incipit-tragoedia-book-gabriele-tinti-9781940625607","title":"Bleedings - Incipit Tragoedia","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51055433613585,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51055436595473,"sku":"NIN9781940625607","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52669963010321,"sku":"NLS9781940625607","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1940625602.jpg?v=1750868453"},{"product_id":"hungry-ghosts-book-gabriele-tinti-9781916809741","title":"Hungry Ghosts","description":"Hungry Ghosts sees the prize-winning poet Gabriele Tinti collaborate with the acclaimed photographer Roger Ballen on a unique artistic engagement with the furthest edges of life and consciousness. Drawing inspiration from the Petavatthu verses of the Buddhist tradition, Hungry Ghosts is a thrilling evocation of the disturbing visions and the yearnings for a world beyond that have fed both ancient and modern understandings of the afterlife.  Taking as their starting points the simplest of media—respectively the brief epigraphic verse and the photographic negative—Tinti and Ballen have produced something truly extraordinary: a masterfully crafted series of poems in dialogue with a stunning array of phantasmagoric images. Tinti’s verse has become renowned for its combination of rigorous sparseness on the level of diction with imagery of an extraordinary power and resonance. These qualities are once again much in evidence in Hungry Ghosts, but Tinti’s response to Ballen’s brilliant and disquieting works has also led him to explore an entirely new terrain: the uncanny borderlands between life and death.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51216273801489,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":51216276422929,"sku":"NGR9781916809741","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/191680974X.jpg?v=1769248862"},{"product_id":"emanuelle-in-america-dvd-0843276019594","title":"Emanuelle in America","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52099708322065,"sku":"DVDB07WQ1NZ76VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0843276019594.jpg?v=1757086938"},{"product_id":"violence-in-a-women-s-prison-dvd-0663390002278","title":"Violence in a Women's Prison","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52413078864145,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52413078995217,"sku":"DVDB07BN7Q2D7LN","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0663390002278.jpg?v=1758823175"},{"product_id":"last-words-book-gabriele-tinti-9788857229874","title":"Last Words","description":"Gabriele Tinti has with this aim composed the last words of ordinary people who chose to commit suicide into a collectanea, a single, long, painful, moving poem of reality. Their words have been organised by the author into a kind of collective epitaph and faithfully recorded without any kind of alteration, freeing them of any pathetic attempt at identifying, fiction or literary affectation. They are lethal, terrible, lucid words written as a shout, a scream, in serenity, with awareness, at peace; words that contain all the terrible complexity of life. In being last words, the end of all communication, of every vital impulse, they testify to the most authentic difficulty of being men.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53475082600721,"sku":"NIN9788857229874","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9788857229874.jpg?v=1777396179"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-gabriele-tinti.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
