Life On Mars by Tracy K Smith
In this brilliant collection of new poems, Tracy K. Smith envisions a sci-fi future sucked clean of any real dangers, contemplates the dark matter that keeps people both close and distant and revisits kitschy concepts like 'love' and 'illness', now relegated to the museum of obsolescence. With allusions to David Bowie and interplanetary travel, Life on Mars imagines a soundtrack for the universe, accompanying the discoveries, failures and oddities of human existence and establishing Smith as one of the best poets of her generation.Tracy K. Smith is the author of four poetry books, including the Pulitzer Prize-winning Wade in the Water and Life on Mars. She was named Poet Laureate of the United States in 2017. She is a Princeton University professor.
