Farewell, My Lovelies book. Blakely’s desire for love If there is a fault in Diann Blakely’s new collection, Farewell, my Lovelies, it lies in its overly Chandleresque title
Farewell, My Lovelies book. Blakely’s desire for love If there is a fault in Diann Blakely’s new collection, Farewell, my Lovelies, it lies in its overly Chandleresque title. Blakely’s vision is indeed Noir, but it isn’t of the hard-boiled, femme-fatale- with-eye’t-kind, but more along the lines of southern Noir - with a very identifiable strain of Bible Belt predestination providing the chief cog for a fate-driven universe.

Originally published in 2000, Farewell, My Lovelies delivers unflinching truths harnessed in musical eloquence. Within these poems, Blakely visits funeral parlors and lovers’ trysts; backyard barbeques and class reunions; the markets of the Yucatan and the death of Kurt Cobain. With expert precision she is able to expose the soft underbelly of the American experience, laying it bare, displaying our vulnerability, old wounds, and still jagged scars.

Farewell, My Love (оригинал Lunatica). Прощай, моя любовь (перевод Elvensmile из Самары). I've been feeling so uncertain. Я чувствую себя таким потерянным. Since the day you left my life. С того дня, как ты покинула мою жизнь. Now I'm standing at the crossroads.

"Farewell, My Lovelies is a brilliant, touching and arresting collection of poems of undeniable, authoritative power. It is dense with a multitude of dramas, as Ms. Blakely's language moves, by fluid passages or sudden splices, from myth to the here-and-now, by way of films, dreams, history, punk-rock delirium, or religious vision."-Anthony Hecht
"'But what chaotic gods / the heart has always worshipped,' Diann Blakely remarks in these startling syllables and rhymes, these ingenious forms. These poems are side-of-the-mouth Chandleresque--but they are also truly lovely, musical and steeped in a farewell eloquence, making transitory but persuasive order of the chaos of the heart."-Carol Muske
"Blakely's noir style has the urbane, anxious glamour of jazz, but there's nothing cool about these fevered poems, which are fueled by intensities of desire, fury and sorrow--what Diann Blakely calls 'the music of...savagely pulsing hearts.' She arrives in Farewell, My Lovelies as a poet of dark and bracing powers.-Mark Doty
