This arousing and provocative book of poetry and novellas in English and French is the author's latest approach to what he terms as "Extreme literature". According to Powell: "'Extreme literature' can be philosophical, political, religious, sexually-oriented, profane, or just downright dangerous because it rocks others boat(s) personally. Not all literature is 'pretty', and even humour can be considered provocative. Art is the ultimate expression of the process of rebellion. If an artist loses that quality, he/she dies in a certain way. In this latest book "Entre Nous et Eux" extreme literature is explored through the lens of LGBT-sexuality and personal identity, and in a multilingual and multicultural context." Isagani R. Cruz called Powell's sci-fi novel "The Tunnel at the End of Time" a new way of writing, and wrote: "The Tunnel at the End of Time is a masterful symphony of languages, religions, cultures, and literary techniques, all journeying to one inevitable destination: the individual wrestling with self." Dr. Santosh Kumar has written: "There is no doubt that Powell, Robert Lowell, Elizabeth Bishop, Sylvia Plath, John Berryman, Randall Jarrell, and Delmore Schwartz are the most talented American poets of the modern age." -- Dr. Santosh Kumar, Allahabad University, 2010, from his book entitled: Adam Donaldson Powell: the making of a poet. And Albert Russo has written in his foreword to "Entre Nous et Eux": "... I urge you to read these humble lines, for you will never regret having tasted the equal of our century's Verlaine, Rimbaud or Baudelaire. Adam Donaldson Powell s own FLEURS DU MAL are flowers to be treasured a lifetime." |
