Little Middle of the Night
Av Molly Brodak
Häftad, 2010
266 kr
Lägg i varukorg
The language of Molly Brodak's first full-length collection, ""A Little Middle of the Night"", is ever shifting, brightly sonic, and disarming while exploring the margin between nature and art, darkness and beauty, dreams and awakenings. As echoed in one epigraph from Emerson, these poems capture …
Small Boat
Av Leslie Lewis
Häftad, 2003
309 kr
Lägg i varukorg
IN Small Boat Lesle Lewis's craft rides the waves of the New England landscape both internal and external. If her world is a collage, as she says, then her poems provide the glue that anchors everything from shifts in the weather to world events to a cacophony of thoughts. When two sentences …
Aggregate of Disturbances
Poems by Michele Glazer
Häftad, 2004
203 kr
Lägg i varukorg
Here, the author confronts the slipperiness of language and perception as she probes natural processes - the lives of insects, the uncertainty of love and the deaths of human beings. The poems negotiate between desire for something irrefutable and an uneasy bedrock of paradox.
Sunday Houses the Sunday House
Häftad, 2007
164 kr
Lägg i varukorg
In ""Sunday Houses the Sunday House"", Elizabeth Hughey embraces the possibility that we can learn as much from objects as we can from other people, from the inanimate as much as the animate. Each poem descends upon a place and a time, takes a few notes, and then leaves quietly without slamming any …
Cloud of Ink
Av L. S. Klatt
Häftad, 2011
174 kr
Lägg i varukorg
On the surface, L. S. Klatt's poems are airy and humorous--with their tales of chickens wandering the highways of Ohio and Winnebago trailers rolling up to heaven and whales bumping like watermelons in a bathtub--but just under the surface they turn disconcertingly serious as they celebrate the …
Penultimate Suitor
Av Mary Leader
Häftad, 2001
164 kr
Tillfälligt slut
These poems rush the reader into the urgency of feelings - lovelorn, bawdy, grieving, pleading - but, never self-pitying. Each poem turns upon and returns to the infuriating and glorious correlations between love and art (learning to love, trying to make beauty or art, trying to be a beauty).
(Some of) the Adventures of Carlyle, My Imaginary Friend
Poems by Dainas Hazners
Häftad, 2004
164 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Reading like one long odyssey, the author takes the reader on his many adventures which range from the ludicrous to the life-threatening with Carlyle flying into the light and carrying the reader with him on his perplexing and fanciful journey.
Waiting
Häftad, 2005
164 kr
Tillfälligt slut
In a startling and original poetic voice, Megan Johnson in The Waiting reveals a vigilant young person who has suffered an unmentionable loss and who dismantles and reconstitutes lyric modes in a relentless search for solace. A lyric adventure of grief and search, The Waiting reinvents language …
Raw Goods Inventory
Av Emily Rosko
Häftad, 2006
164 kr
Tillfälligt slut
In ""Raw Goods Inventory"", Emily Rosko gives us a poetic inventory in a virtuosic display of voices and accents. The poems come with sharp elbows and knees; they are nomadic, acquisitive, dispersive, and diffractive. More elementally, Rosko's poems contain the scattered bric-a-brac of the …
Unbeknownst
Av Julie Hanson
Häftad, 2011
174 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Julie Hanson's award-winning collection, Unbeknownst, gives us plainspoken poems of unstoppable candor. They are astonished and sobered by the incoming data; they are funny; they are psychologically accurate and beautifully made. Hanson's is a mind interested in human responsibility--to ourselves …
Natural Selections

184 kr
Tillfälligt slut
Whether wandering the paths of the imagination, driving through sparsely populated countryside, or listening for the voices of animals, Joseph Campana's poemsattend to the ways we are indelibly marked by habitat. Shot full of accidental attachments and reluctant transience, Natural …
