Adventurous, searching, interested in the luminous instant of reality that dwells in the perpetual now of the poem, Penelope Shuttle is a poet who clearly shares Picasso's view that ?If you know exactly what you're going to do, what's the point of doing it?' This selection ? drawn from ten collections published over three decades plus new work ? shows both her consistency of voice and her energised openness to language and to life. Not for nothing was one of her books titled Adventures with My Horse. The new poems of Unsent are communications to and with her husband Peter Redgrove, rememberin… (altro)

„What is it with poets and their hearts?
They leave them in the oddest places.” (Quotation from “Hearts”, page 241)

Content:
This is a new collection of poems from nine of her published books, published between 1981 and 2010 and a new collection, “Unsent” from 2012.

Themes and language:
The poet has written poems about everything, everyday situations and feelings; nothing seems too simple, flowers, rain and roses, art, nature, Cornwall’s impressive landscape, dreams and magic, children, especially about herself as a mother and her daughter Zoe. We find poems about love and poems written about her love for her husband Peter Redgrove who had died in 2003 and how she still is missing him.
Penelope Shuttle has words for everything and embraced by her feelings between the words, her language paints beautiful pictures full of wisdom, wit, happiness and sadness.
The first poem by Penelope Shuttle, I had read, was “Outgrown” written for her daughter Zoe and it is still one of my favorite ones
“….. because just as I work out how to be a mother
she stops being a child.” (Page 107)
Just a few words to describe everything about motherhood.

Conclusion:
Unsent is a collection of poems, not of classical rhymes, but of a beautiful poetic language,
with its own intonation and rhythm, sensitive, stunning and deeply impressing. They are experiences of life, to share with our own experiences.

“Was genau ist los mit Dichtern und ihren Herzen?
sie lassen sie an den merkwürdigsten Plätzen zurück“
(eigene Übersetzung des englischen Originals, Seite 241)

Inhalt:
Diese neue Gedichtsammlung umfasst eine Auswahl aus den neun von der Lyrikerin in den Jahren 1981 bis 2010 veröffentlichten Gedichtbänden und wird durch eine neue Sammlung von Gedichten „Unsent“ aus dem Jahr 2012 ergänzt.

Themen und Sprache:
Diese Lyrikerin fasst alles in Gedichte, Alltagssituationen und Gefühle, nichts ist ihr zu einfach, Blumen, Regen und Rosen, Kunst, Natur, die beeindruckende Landschaft Cornwalls, Träume und Magie, Kinder und hier besonders ihre Rolle als Mutter und ihre Tochter Zoe. Wir finden Gedichte über die Liebe und über ihre Liebe zu ihrem Mann Peter Redgrove, der 2003 verstorben ist und den sie immer noch vermisst.
Penelope Shuttle findet für alles Worte. Eingebettet in ihre Gefühle malt ihre Sprache einprägsame Bilder voll Weisheit, Humor, Glück und Traurigkeit.
Das erste Gedicht von dieser Lyrikerin, das ich gelesen hatte, war „Outgrown“, geschrieben für ihre Tochter Zoe und es ist noch immer eines meiner Lieblingsgedichte:
„ … gerade als ich endlich gelernt habe, Mutter zu sein,
hört sie auf, Kind zu sein“ (eigene Übersetzung, Seite 107)
So wenige Worte und doch sagen sie alles über das Muttersein aus.

Fazit:
Unsent ist eine Sammlung von Gedichten, die nichts mit klassischen Reimen und Versformen zu tun haben. Sie sind in einer wunderbar poetischen Sprache geschrieben, in ihrer eigenen Sprachmelodie, sensibel, atemberaubend und tief beeindruckend. Es sind Lebenserfahrungen, die mit unseren eigenen Erfahrungen geteilt werden.

Die Gedichte dieser englische Lyrikerin sind nie in die deutsche Sprache übersetzt worden, ich denke, sie würden dann auch Teile dieser besonderen Kraft und Magie verlieren. Es lohnt sich jedoch, das englische Original zu lesen, denn diese Lyrik nimmt uns Leser mit auf eine sehr emotionale Reise.
