• Para "The Show Goes On" me dijeron literalmente que no rapeara demasiado profundo. No debería ser demasiado lírico. Tiene que ser algo fácil para los ojos.

• Además, como a la gente le gusta hacer varias cosas a la vez, si tienes un poco de música de fondo y el contenido de la letra te hace querer escucharla, es probable que dejes de enviar mensajes de texto. Creo que a la gente le gustan las cosas que hacen ese tipo de ruido, pero que dejan el cerebro libre para hacer otra cosa.

• Quién de nosotros no ha soñado, en momentos de ambición, con el milagro de una prosa poética, musical sin ritmo ni rima, lo suficientemente flexible y entrecortada como para adaptarse a las agitaciones líricas del alma, a las ondulaciones de los sueños y a los saltos repentinos de la conciencia.

• I am convinced that God is love, this thought has for me a primitive lyrical validity. When it is present to me, I am unspeakably blissful, when it is absent, I long for it more vehemently than does the lover for his object.

• Because every book of art, be it a poem or a cupola, is understandably a self-portrait of its author, we won't strain ourselves too hard trying to distinguish between the author's persona and the poem's lyrical hero. As a rule, such distinctions are quite meaningless, if only because a lyrical hero is invariably an author's self-projection.

• Recordó a las heroínas de las novelas que había leído, y la legión lírica de aquellas mujeres adúlteras comenzó a cantar en su memoria con voces fraternales que la encantaron. Ahora se veía a sí misma como una de aquellas amoureuses que tanto había envidiado: se convertía, en realidad, en una de aquella galería de figuras de ficción; el largo sueño de su juventud se hacía realidad.

• No one writes a story like Lydia Davis. In the years since she began publishing her lyrical, extremely short fiction, she has quietly become one of the most impactful influences on American writers, even if they don't know it. That's largely because she makes economy seem so easy. You could read several of her stories into a friend's voicemail box before you were cut off (and you should). You could fit one of her stories in this column. Some you could write on your palm.

• Patti Callahan Henry’s THE STORIES WE TELL is a lyrical exploration of love and longing, secrets and suspicion, family and friendship, all told with the author’s trademark insights into the hollows and curves of the heart and mind of a working woman who must balance the demands of motherhood, wifedom, sisterhood, and yes, the deepest cravings for artistic expression. I always love the stories PCH tells!

• LÁGRIMAS PRIMALES es una novela de enorme fuerza. Apasionada y erótica, a veces tiernamente lírica, se enfrenta sin inmutarse a brutales políticas medioambientales y feministas. Su protagonista, Sage, es única, mágica e inquietante.

• There's a great freedom of forms and intonations in Luigi Fontanella's poetry. He doesn't take a strong formal stand; his poetry entertains moments of nearly proselike colloquial narrative along with moments of powerful lyrical tension. There is a movement of extremes, from powerful tonality to near atonality, and I like this a great deal; it's a stance that very effectively catches the spirit that makes work in poetry possible nowadays.

• In language that is searing and lyrical, evocative and precise, this exceptional book thinks with the zombies, specters, felons, slaves, dogs, cadavers, and other entities that are the remnants of loss and dispossession in the law. Dogs and people are abundantly present here, even as the legal fictions they are made to inhabit are exposed with acid lucidity. These are hard histories made readable by Dayan's precious acts of writing.
