    THE PASSIONS OF DEREK WALCOTT
    Author: By Patti Hartigan, Globe Staff Date: Sunday, April 25, 1993
    Page:
    Section:
    ARTS AND FILM It's Oct. 8, just about dawn, the hour of paperboys and doughnut makers. The sun does a coy fan dance behind scattered clouds, as Indian summer tries to shrug off the hint of a frost. Poet Derek Walcott is up early as usual, writing at the desk in his Brookline condominium. He's wrestling with a particularly peevish quatrain when the Swedish Academy calls with the news. He has won the 1992 Nobel Prize in Literature. The first call is the sweet one, but the phone soon becomes an irritable intrusion. NPR and NBC call. CNN and CBS and every other network in the business want a "live" comment. A ragtag pack of reporters follows the poet to the neighborhood coffee shop. ("The local geriatrics were going, 'What's a Nobel? Is that a bagel?' " Walcott recalls.) Frank Capra meets Franz Kafka in this curious scene, upbeat yet slightly absurd. "I feel like a third-rate congressman," says the poet, who awoke to find himself transformed into a Nobel laureate. "I'm having a hit movie, 'The Exorcist IV.' " The Fourth Estate dogs him with Stupid Press Questions at Boston University, where Walcott teaches English and playwriting. Does he have any regrets? "There are things I wish I had written, like 'Now is the winter of our discontent.' " Describe a typical day. "I work very early until noon, then look at nonsense on the TV in my pajamas." Why does he rise at dawn? ''To smoke."

    DEREK WALCOTT'S POETRY
    Author: By Robert Taylor, Special to the Globe Date: Friday, October 9, 1992
    Page:
    Section:
    LIVING 'The Walcott line is still sponsored by Shakespeare and the Bible, happy to surprise by a fine excess," Seamus Heaney has remarked about the poetry of Derek Walcott. "It can be incantatory and self-entrancing, as in the early 'Sea-Chantey' and the later 'Season of Phantasmal Peace.' It can be athletic and demotic as in 'Tales of the Islands' or 'The Spoiler's Return.' It can compel us with the almost hydraulic drag of its words.' " Coming of age on the Windward island of St. Lucia, then a British dependency, Walcott heard and absorbed a Creole patois all around him. He learned English in school almost as a foreign tongue. "Perhaps that makes us value English the more," he once said. Those influences, the Caribbean and the sonorous literary traditions of English, fuse in his art. The rhythms of island speech and the sea are tempered by the lords of language the Elizabethans, Virgil and Horace, and other classical bards, cavalier and roundhead poets Walcott read during childhood. That background preserved his poetry from the perils of the folkloric and insular, even as it retained the pungency of spoken, living words. His themes as a poet have been remarkably consistent, almost from the start. Walcott's fledgling play as a college undergraduate in Jamaica dealt with Henri-Christophe, the freed slave who helped Toussaint L'Ouverture liberate Haiti from the French rule, but who then became a despot. The islander haunted by the colonial past and his ambivalent feelings about the island's present is a constant in Walcott's volumes. A wanderer, he seeks the meaning of home, a place where he might heal the divisions of his society and

    (BY LITTLE WILLIAM)
    MEZZ’ESTATE, TOBAGO
    Grandi spiagge lastricate al sole
    Calura bianca.
    Un fiumana verde.
    Un ponte,
    palme gialle strinate
    a partire dalla casa ospitata dall’estate
    sonnecchiante per tutto agosto.
    Giorni che ho tenuto stretti,
    Giorni che ho perduto,
    giorni che cresciuti, come figlie, non trovano più porto tra le mie braccia.
    IL PUGNO
    Il pugno stretto intorno al mio cuore Si allenta un poco, e io boccheggio Lucidità, ma già preme di nuovo. Quando mai non ho amato la pena d’amore? Ma questa si è commossa oltre l’amore fino alla mania. Questa ha la stretta solida del folle, questa sta impugnando l’orlo dell’irrazionale, prima di inabissarsi urlando. Stringi duro allora, cuore. Così almeno vivi. dall'edizione orginale in: Walcott, Derek, Mappa del nuovo mondo, Adelphi - Collana: PBA - Piccola Biblioteca Adelphi Multimedia

    "Mr. Walcott's epic Omeros is a significant and timely reminder that the past is not the property of those who first created it; it always matters to all of us no matter who we are or where we were born." - The New York Times Book Review Derek Walcott was born in St. Lucia, West Indies, in 1930, to an English father and African mother. He is the author of more than twenty collections of poems and plays, including Omeros The Arkansas Testament , and The Bounty . He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1992. As Rebekah Presson noted in the introduction to an interview, "Walcott's plays and poems are distinguished by the tensions between the European and African/Caribbean cultures, and by the resolution of those tensions. In play after play, poem after poem and especially in his recent epic poem Omeros . Walcott explores the burden of cultural pasts ( Omeros is itself Walcott's Caribbean Odyssey ), and how those pasts contend within his heroic, if all-too-human, characters."
