Otherworld: Cadences

Otherworld: Cadences

by F. S. Flint

“Otherworld: Cadences” represents the culmination of Frank Stuart Flint’s poetic journey. This collection, published in 1920, reflects his development as a poet, influenced by his engagement with the Imagist movement and his friendship with Ezra Pound. Flint’s early work, inspired by Romantic poets Keats and Shelley, shows a shift towards a more modernist approach in this final collection. While the book is characterized by a range of styles and subject matter, it reveals a poet deeply invested in capturing the nuances of human experience and the complexities of the modern world. The collection is particularly noteworthy for its exploration of themes of love, loss, and the passage of time, often expressed with striking imagery and a unique musicality. Flint, known for his work in translation, also brings a distinctive sensibility to the English language, drawing upon his fluency in multiple languages. This collection stands as a testament to his significant contribution to the development of modern poetry.
