om Assia Wevill
Den tjugoåttonde september kommer Eilat Negevs biografi ”A lover of Unreason: The Biography of Assia Wevill”, i går förbeställde jag den från Amazon. I dikten Dreamers, den enda ur Birthday Letters som handlar om Assia skriver Ted Hughes
"The dreamer in her
Had fallen in love with me and she did not know it.
That moment the dreamer in me
Fell in love with her and I knew it."
Han skriver
"She sat there, in her soot-wet mascara,
In flame-orange silks, in gold bracelets,
Slighty filthy with erotic mystery –
A German/ Russian Israeli with the gaze of a demon
Between curtains of black Mongolian hair."
