154 kr
Tillfälligt slut
"Imagine Alzheimer's sufferers and their loved ones treading water in a choppy sea of exhaustion and despair. Now picture Nancy Lagomarsino's "Light From an Eclipse" as a life preserver, airborne and spinning toward them -- a missile of hope and survival. The book is, in equal measures, …

"Magdalena" is a finely drawn collection which, with sometimes painful honesty, examines the vagaries and vicissitudes of a heart in conflict with itself. The poems invoke the nature of an independent woman embracing her sexuality, travels, and being in the world.

Angles of Approach
Häftad, 2010
172 kr
Tillfälligt slut
"It's unusual to call a book of poetry a 'page turner,' but this collection, with the knocking and jostling of words that mark the peculiar rhythm and appeal of the prose poem, is just that. Iglesias has an uncanny ability to capture whole sweeps of history in a few lines, while her eye and ear for …
All of Us
Häftad, 2011
167 kr
Tillfälligt slut
"In the white space out beyond Elisabeth Frost's cropped tales, subtle situations, plausible and bizarre fantasias, you may sense the ghosts of Kafka and Borges strolling. But these delicious, low-key, disturbing and always surprising prose poems, with their train of lyric elegance, are a world …

She employs postcards, letters, and literary and pop culture heroines--most notably Oz's Dorothy--to tell and retell …
Rusted City
Häftad, 2014
167 kr
Tillfälligt slut
"In Hurt's breathtaking mixed work of prose poetry and verse, a history of place is caked in a 'deep layer of red dust.' The Rust Belt's rattling structures and sutured-up asphalt roads are palpable here in every musical sentence."--Oliver de la Paz "In Hurt's sparkling debut, the tinny, …
To Some Women I Have Known
Häftad, 2015
167 kr
Tillfälligt slut
"Some Women I Have Known is deliriously immersive, but the real beauty of this work is in the juxtaposition. What yokes the memory of a friend's dying mother, a kidnapped heiress, a syphilis-stricken aunt, the ivory-billed woodpecker, and a woman in a yellow steakhouse shirt? Birds, women, horses, …

Häftad, 2016
204 kr
Tillfälligt slut
"So unexpected, so revelatory, such exquisite prose (and poetry) these 'sequences,' as the editors choose to call them, may be undefinable, but they are certainly not indescribable. I describe them as hypnotic, startling, and alive."--Dinty W. Moore Nothing to Declare is a ground-breaking anthology …
