Rilke Shake’s title, a pun on milkshake, means in Portuguese just what it does in English. With frenetic humor and linguistic innovation, Angélica Freitas constructs a temple of delight to celebrate her own literary canon. In this whirlwind debut collection, first published in Portuguese in 2007, Gertrude Stein passes gas in her bathtub, a sushi chef cries tears of Suntory Whisky, and Ezra Pound is kept “insane in a cage in pisa.” Hilary Kaplan’s translation is as contemporary and lyrical as the Portuguese-language original, a considerable feat considering the collection’s breakneck pace.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. What better way to take this approach than through poetry By P. Holzman This is a blend, a mix, a jumble; it is a Rilke Shake. In Angélica Freitas’ collection of quirky poems the lively samba does not call her to the streets. Her “Rite of Passage” is composed of neighborly looks that silently deduce her identity with questions unspoken and answered before they are never asked. The author prefers her Blake toasted– and buttered. Angélica claims to never have read Chaucer but does not lay down to this assumed literary inefficiency. She throws this fact into the mix of ingredients that is ironic, pithy, and concisely reflective showing that her literary antecedents are quite all right without Chaucer at their table. The reader will find popular Brazilian culture and other global elements flipped and agitated, or mixed as the title suggests. What better way to take this approach than through poetry? Freitas’ does not hold back. The emotion and tone blends a nostalgia of love, and childhood memories, with a yearning desire that articulates past with future, resulting in a raw exposition of the present that suggests numerous lenses and angles exist and that they may be better shaken up rather than straightened and ordered. In the poem "October thirteenth" the poet directly concludes that she cannot finish the poem. It struck closely to what Alejandra Pizarnik has said about finishing a poem, “you cannot finish a poem, it’s not done, the poet abandon’s it, the reader must finish it.” Just like a good ol’ American milkshake, you cannot chug it, you have to pucker up and suck hard at the beginning because it’s too fun and exciting not too, but quickly you will realize that the pace sets to a slower rhythm until it melts a bit. Once I accustomed to Freitas’ style and flow–when the consistency of the shake thinned out–I was able to finish it like all readers are called to. Hilary Kaplan’s translation is scrupulous her and translator’s note at the end seems to be strategically placed to conclude the collection with coherence which personally helped me to finish even more satisfied. Upon finishing this book of blogged poems, one is going to need a few napkins to clean up after the beautiful mess that is delighting in Angélica Freitas` Rilke Shake. “Surrender your mallormé, olé” and read Phoneme Media’s irreproachable bilingual edition of Rilke Shake.
