The New York Times bestselling debut book of poetry from Lana Del Rey, Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass.

Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is the title poem of the book and the first poem I wrote of many. Some of which came to me in their entirety, which I dictated and then typed out, and some that I worked laboriously picking apart each word to make the perfect poem. They are eclectic and honest and not trying to be anything other than what they are and for that reason I’m proud of them, especially because the spirit in which they were written was very authentic.” —Lana Del Rey

Lana’s breathtaking first book solidifies her further as “the essential writer of her times” (The Atlantic). The collection features more than thirty poems, many exclusive to the book: Never to Heaven, The Land of 1,000 Fires, Past the Bushes Cypress Thriving, LA Who Am I to Love You?, Tessa DiPietro, Happy, Paradise Is Very Fragile, Bare Feet on Linoleum, and many more. This beautiful hardcover edition showcases Lana’s typewritten manuscript pages alongside her original photography. The result is an extraordinary poetic landscape that reflects the unguarded spirit of its creator.

Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is also brought to life in an unprecedented spoken word audiobook which features Lana Del Rey reading fourteen select poems from the book accompanied by music from Grammy Award–winning musician Jack Antonoff.

Breath taking . Lana is a true poet. every word and infliction painted a picture. Like she took me by the hand and allowed me too walk with her, through the lonliness and beauty of her mind.

Emana uma Magnificência e as palavras são usadas sabiamente com poesia e prosa. É como se Lana estivesse enviando um áudio via Whatsapp para nos falar sobre temas fortes e que na maioria das vezes são contraditórios e controversos como confiança, amor, harmonia, família, governantes, incêndios e queimadas entre outros pontos que estão nas entrelinhas. O contexto é forte e nos lembra versos de Sylvia, Dylan, Robert Frost, Amy, Cobain, Jim, Allen, Walt, Vladimir, Clarice Lispector, Álvares de Azevedo... Uma sutilidade nas melodias como um ASMR para se escutar 24 horas por dia. Estou impactado e uma coisa é certo:
Todos que ouvirem e proclamarem as poesias não serão mais os mesmos pois as perceções se expande e você é capturado para o Mundo De Lana Del Rey.
