Reviews
With gusto, compassion, and wit matched by consummate craft and remarkable tonal range, Peacock revels in the liberties of language. The stroke of the 'intimate witness' (the poet's beloved analyst) spurs a series of lyric meditations on the forces that shape and reshape identity. With the singular achievement of her seventh collection, Peacock transforms her art., There's a spellbinding intimacy here, between analyst and patient, the two women characters, and, most importantly, between poet and reader. A compelling examination of how much we depend on others, especially when it comes to 'seeing' ourselves through someone else's eyes. Needless to say, the real subject is love., Psychoanalysis has always been of a piece with the various languages of literature--a kind of practical poetry--taking its life, as theory and practice, from a larger world of words. A session lasts 50 minutes, [and it's] always at the same time each week, the way a sonnet is 14 lines. As Molly Peacock superbly demonstrates in The Analyst, the form makes possible the articulation., Molly Peacock's The Analyst is 'a sensuous world on a piece of paper / folding out and beyond and inward and onto the contours of the conquered land / of your mind.' The 'harrowed hour' of therapy and of these poems may begin with the word fear but is suffused with gratitude and love. Guided to 'listen, question, and watch things heal,' I felt both the sting of recognition and balm of comfort in these honest, graceful poems., Vulnerability isn't the subject of Molly Peacock's stunning new book of poems, The Analyst, but it's the beguiling emotion at the heart of each poem. There's a spellbinding intimacy here, between analyst and patient, the two women characters, and, most importantly, between poet and reader. Among its many other qualities is a compelling examination of how much we depend on others, especially when it comes to 'seeing' ourselves through someone else's eyes.

Synopsis
When a psychoanalyst became a painter after surviving a stroke, her longtime patient, distinguished and beloved poet Molly Peacock, took up a unique task. The Analyst is a new, visceral, twenty-first century "in memoriam" of ambiguous loss in which Peacock brilliantly tells the story of a decades-long patient-therapist relationship that now reverses and continues to evolve. Peacock invigorates the notion of poetry as word-painting: A tapestry of images, from a red enameled steamer on a black stove to Tibetan monks funneling glowing sand into a painting, create the backdrop for her quest to define identity. From "In Our Unexpected Future": ...for frocks outlast pillars. But feelings outlive frocks. The immaterial storms through, a force beyond years (a mere four since you were nearly felled). It isn't what happened that lasts. Not art, either, but the savory core. What's felt., When a psychoanalyst became a painter after surviving a stroke, her longtime patient, distinguished and beloved poet Molly Peacock, took up a unique task.

- e***m (138)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseFirst off, I'll say that I'm happy with this purchase and the seller. That said, I do want to mention that because the Amazon listing details were copied into the description, I thought it came with the blanket (says the plates will be wrapped in the blanket). I didn't see the condition notes in the item details section. Again, I don't hold this against the seller, I've done the same thing myself as a seller. Also the dishes were shipped dirty, but for the price, I can't complain.
