Loose Strife
Loose Strife | Quan Barry
2 posts | 2 read | 2 to read
In poems initially inspired by Aeschylus’ fifth-century trilogy “The Oresteia,” which chronicles the fall of the House of Atreides, Loose Strife investigates the classical sense of loose strife, namely “to loose battle” or “sow chaos,” a concept which is still very much with us more than twenty-five hundred years later.

Some of these poems are hard to follow, but I‘m still reading it in bits and finding interesting lines. Read for a short while this morning! #poetrychallenge

I slipped a bit on my #poetrychallenge2018 for the last few weeks, so now I‘m picking this little volume up. Barry experiments quite a bit with form and focus—interesting so far!

Lcsmcat Sounds like someone I need to read. 6y
