Harmonium - MP3 CD Audiobook in CD jacket

Description: Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird Harmonium Wallace Stevens Published in 1923, “Harmonium” by Wallace Stevens is a groundbreaking collection of poems that marked the poet’s debut in the literary world. The collection is celebrated for its innovative use of language, vivid imagery, and philosophical exploration of human experience. Stevens’s poetry in “Harmonium” is characterized by its dense and complex language, often challenging readers to engage with abstract ideas and concepts. The collection is divided into two sections, with the first featuring poems that are more imagistic and reflective of nature, while the second delves into more philosophical and existential themes. One of the central motifs in “Harmonium” is the idea of the imagination as a transformative force, capable of reshaping reality and providing meaning to the world. Stevens explores the tension between the external world and the internal, subjective realm of the mind, questioning the nature of reality and the role of the artist in shaping perception. The title poem, “Harmonium,” exemplifies Stevens’s interest in the interplay of imagination and reality. The harmonium, a musical instrument, becomes a metaphor for the poet’s creative process, where the poet, like a musician, plays with words and ideas to create a harmonious and meaningful composition. Overall, “Harmonium” is a seminal work in American poetry, signaling the arrival of Wallace Stevens as a major literary figure. The collection’s influence can be seen in its impact on subsequent generations of poets, as well as its enduring exploration of the complex relationship between language, imagination, and human experience.
