58 poemas Desde los primeros versos a la pequeña Aitana, a una sucesión de cantos para las amistades, para quienes sobreviven a un mundo en el que los vivos parecen estar muertos, parecemos estarlo, y vamos acumulando la misma muerte, o muertes distintas, como si fuera un objeto de consumo, un producto más, convirtiéndonos también nosotros mismos en productos de una descomposición moral, de una triste composición contra la que debemos alzar la voz, y no solo el silencio, la mirada interior, la connivencia, para desatar nueva luz, nueva energía, nueva mirada hacia otra mejor existencia.

La lista de poetas que al amor le han cantado es una auténtica locura. Y además irá a más. No siempre se tiene la razón, ni falta que hace. En algunos momentos de la vida, las razones del corazón no las comprendemos y sentimos que lo que importa no es lo que no tuvimos, es lo que no nos enseñaron. Las cosas que se tienen, se pierden, y el tiempo casi nunca logra desgastarnos lo que se ha conocido. Escribí este poemario para dar respuesta a dos preguntas del poeta Ismael López Gálvez, ¿podemos los poetas escribir aún sobre el amor? ¿Y cómo? La razón perdida es un homenaje ...

Mexican Dinosaur is a poetic offering from C.L. "Rooster" Martinez and Write About Now Publishing. The collection of poems is a metamodernist take on the changing economic demographics of his San Antonio barrio, the confusion and desire to flourish within a hyphenated American identity, and the force of gravity that the push and pull of culture from both sides of a Mexican/American ethnicity has.

Fans of Jesse Thistle’s extraordinary debut From the Ashes have already had the pleasure of knowing his poetry. In Scars and Stars, he digs deeper into the poetic form, which is especially close to his heart. Charting his own history, the stories of people from his past, the burning intensity of new and unexpected love, the complex legacies of family and community, and the beauty of parenthood, this collection is a profound mediation that expands his engagement with the ideas and experiences that have shaped his body of work thus far.

Kingdomland is the debut poetry collection of Rachael Allen - a writer of rare vision and flair. The world she creates is suffused with surreal images and uncanny incidents. Unexplained violences and strange metamorphoses take shape in the 'glowering dusk'. And yet, all too clearly, we recognise life here on earth, its everyday griefs, dysfunctions and injustices. Where distinctions between murder and bloodletting, corruption and consumption are blurred. Where a pet tarantula or mimic octopus might find itself beside glands and processed meats.

Winner of the 2023 Trio Award, Christian Gullette's critically acclaimed Coachella Elegy explores the queer promised lands and poolside utopias of the American West even as they are threatened by environmental destruction. With precision and clarity, Gullette's poems wander the desert landscape of California, reveling in its beauties and challenging its sacred myths. His speaker seamlessly transports us from a hospital room where his husband battles cancer to the Palm Springs oasis where the vacationing couple celebrates survival.

Crashing Waves is a companion through the highs and lows of being human. The thread that ties our human body to our infinite soul. The meeting point of the timed and the timeless. A surrendering and invitation to the freedom that comes when we allow our true selves to be felt and expressed.

Jay Bernard’s powerful debut is a queer exploration of the black British archive, tracing a line between two significant events in recent British history: the New Cross Massacre of 1981 in which 13 young black people were killed in a house fire - and the Grenfell Tower fire in 2017. The collection stems from research undertaken about the New Cross Fire during a 2016 residency at the George Padmore Institute.

In this song-like collection of 50 short poems inspired by rural Prince Edward Island, Canada, Roderick MacDonald elevates the commonplace and simple in entertaining and thoughtful verse. Through his poetry, MacDonald invites the listener to accompany him on a gentle walk through the changing seasons on his beloved island. His words evoke the beach: sand under foot, lapping waves, and spectacular sunsets anointing abandoned old lighthouses.

National Book Award finalist, Iraq war veteran, novelist, and poet Kevin Powers creates a deeply affecting portrait of a life shaped by war. Letter Composed During a Lull in the Fighting captures the many moments that comprise a soldier's life: Driving down the Texas highway; waiting for the unknown in the dry Iraq heat; writing a love letter; listening to a mother recount her dreams. Written with evocative language and discernment, Powers' poetry strives to make sense of the war and its echoes through human experience.

Usman Hameedi’s debut collection, Staying Right Here, is a journey in finding home. Hameedi invites listeners to bear witness to vignettes of joy and hardship as he navigates finding his place in America. From an ode to Bodegas, an autobiography of his eyebrows, and elegies for lost friends, Hameedi’s thematic metaphors for family, wellness, and American biases weave a literary tapestry.

A. H. Jerriod Avant’s debut collection, Muscadine, cultivates the vine of familial memory, eulogizing our collective losses while exalting the succor of this human life, how the native grape’s “thick skin [that] teeth / pierce breaks to pour // sweetly across the tongue.” Throughout, a deeply Southern sensibility balances an environmental awareness of deficit and bounty—appetite pains the stomach and delights the palette.

This image-driven, sound-driven collection carries us to the working-class Portland neighborhood of Lents, where Dickman was raised by a single mother. Here, as a skateboarding boy practices his kickflip on the street, enlightenment simmers under the surface of both the natural world and the human constructions that threaten it.

Walking Home to Humboldt is a poetic journey through the space-time of unspoken thoughts, dreams, and memories, revealed in love letters about home as read by the author. The bewitching beauty of Humboldt County, in Northern California, has inspired countless artists; its deep forests of redwoods, creeping mists, and the slate-gray waters of the Pacific Ocean set the perfect landscape for unexpressed soul. This is a book of poetry about homecoming and good-byes. It is of heartbreak and triumph, celebration, and bittersweet resignation.

In 1997, Korean poet Ko Un and a few companions spent 40 days of rough traveling through Tibet, despite the fact that years before an undiagnosed attack of tuberculosis had seriously damaged his lungs. Enduring terrible pain and near death, he recovered and wrote the powerful poems of this volume, which both describe and evaluate his journey. As he says in his Preface, “Narrowly avoiding falls, I scrambled up and down precipices, crossed plains, on the way to the last place we could go. Now there seemed to be nowhere left for us to go, and nowhere for us to go back to.” It was not “...

Six poems about love, life & relationships.

Née et élevée dans une petite ville minière de l’Est industriel de l’Ukraine, Luba Yakymtchouk a perdu sa maison familiale en 2014 lorsque la région a été occupée par des séparatistes soutenus par la Russie. Fruits d’expériences émotionnelles très complexes, ses poèmes s’étendent du désir érotique dans une ville déchirée par la guerre à l’imitation de babillages enfantins pour décrire les outils du combat militaire. Luba Yakymtchouk fait preuve d’espièglerie face à la catastrophe et signe ainsi sa singularité artistique.

Gottfried Benn im Originalton Gottfried Benns lyrisches Werk gehört zum Sprachgewaltigsten, was die deutsche Literatur des 20. Jahrhunderts hervorgebracht hat. Diese Auswahl setzt nicht einseitig auf Bekanntes, sondern lädt zu neuen Entdeckungen ein. Der melancholische Klang von Gottfried Benns Stimme und die leise Musikalität seines Vortrags verleihen den Texten eine ganz eigene Intensität.
