Spodoby, 3. vydání

Poezii zdobí kdeco. Málokdo v ní však hledá poctivost. A protože Dominik píše poctivě, je na světě o něco méně opuštěnosti. Pracuje se slovy, nikoliv jen s pocity a emocemi. Dokáže demonstrovat fakt, že vědět znamená sedět a mít mozoly i na prdeli... Po čertech ďáblech hledat prameny, „jako by hluchý kladl prsty na flétnu“. Bárt se vyhýbá zhovadilé popisnosti, jíž by jeho underground dýchal kyselostí ostravského piva a kýchal bohémskou nakvašeností Brna. Důležitější je, co se neopakuje, střízlivost ve světě, kde poezie nasedá do vlaků, které neřídí grafikon dopravy, a kde se současná básnická generace „stala nezávislou na poezii“. Bártovy verše pro kluky a holky střeží tajemství prožitků, deníkových iniciací a pozorování, nenesou ale jmenovky na zvoncích, cosi suchého a nezamilovaného tam praská, když „z prostoru vybírá prostotu“.

Mary Barnard

Mary Barnard

Born in the Pacific Northwest, Mary Barnard (1909?2001) struck up correspondence with Ezra Pound in 1933, won Poetry magazine''s prestigious Levinson Award in 1935, and moved to New York City the following year. There she met Marianne Moore and William Carlos Williams, who proclaimed her writing emblematic of "what we have been about all these years." This fully annotated volume makes available Barnard''s complete poems for the first time, along with a robust selection of her translations and prose. Most well-known for her bestselling Sappho and her influential role as the inaugural poetry curator at the University at Buffalo, Barnard was a "second-wave" modernist and "late" Imagist whose regionally grounded writing also anticipated later eco-poetry. The volume''s editor, Barnard scholar and biographer Sarah Barnsley, situates Barnard''s work within these broader literary and cultural currents. Previously unpublished poems appear alongside Barnard''s essays on her creative practice and friendships, illuminating the career, oeuvre, and ethos of this pivotal yet still underappreciated twentieth-century figure. With a foreword by Mary de Rachewiltz (author of Ezra Pound, Father and Teacher) and afterword by Barnard''s literary executor Elizabeth J. Bell, Mary Barnard is essential reading for poets, scholars, and translators.

Číhat na mech

Číhat na mech

Básnická sbírka Alexandry Brockové Číhat na mech je sebevědomým debutem. Promyšleně komponovaná kniha nenápadně vrací do současné české poezie vysoký básnický styl. Brocková ráda střídá pestré formální rejstříky: od vznešeného patosu k „mileniálsky“ potutelné větě. Nebojí se spájet vysoké s nízkým, jistou „učenost“ s rozpustilostí, pozorování nepostřehnutelných dějů a bytostí, rostlin, ptactva i živlů s precizní básnickou formou. Brocková mluví za věci i živé bytosti, nikdy není povýšená, vždy je účastná. Lidstvo vnímá jako jednoho z mnoha tvorů obývajících Zemi a s delikátní ironií glosuje jeho absurdní hemžení. Jako by v jejím pohledu současná civilizace byla přehlídkou zvolna se rozpadajících památek-ruin, o kterých autorka jako užaslý cestovatel podává zprávu. V poezii Alexandry Brockové je možné zakusit to, co Petr Král nazýval „rozdýcháním vjemu“ – schopnost rozehrát zjitřený počitek či stav, který se při čtení doslova rozklene před očima.

Autobiography of Death

Autobiography of Death

Winner of the 2019 International Griffin Poetry Prize Winner of the 2019 Lucien Stryk Asian Translation Prize‘I thought to myself that I needed to sing death, perform a rite for death, write death, then bid farewell to it. The way to send death away was to sing with my own death all the death in the sky and on the ground.’The title section of Kim Hyesoon’s visceral Autobiography of Death consists of forty-nine poems, each poem representing a single day during which the spirit roams after death before it enters the cycle of reincarnation. The poems not only give voice to those who met unjust deaths during Korea’s violent contemporary history, but also unveil what Kim calls ‘the structure of death, that we remain living in’. Autobiography of Death at once re-enacts trauma and narrates death – how we die and how we survive within this cyclical structure. In this sea of mirrors, the plural ‘you’ speaks as a body of multitudes that has been beaten, bombed, and buried many times over by history. The volume concludes on the other side of the mirror with ‘Face of Rhythm’, a poem about individual pain, illness, and meditation.

Odplouvám, nečekej

Odplouvám, nečekej

Debutová sbírka Nely Haluzové představuje naléhavou, pečlivě vystavěnou výpověď ohledávající hranice mezi intimitou a odcizením. Vodní toky i krevní oběh se vlévají jeden do druhého, zanechávají stopy, které nikdy zcela nezmizí. Město se stává živoucím organismem i vyprahlým fragmentem. Na hladině divokého a podmanivého oceánu, který je podobenstvím o pokojné proměně i znepokojujícím rozpadu, pluje prostá něha.

Save theexplosions for Bonfire NightInstead ofblowing things up as you fight. Put thenuclear threat to good useForshrinking tumours, not nuclear truce. In placeof the men going into battle,Let themcome home and raise our cattle;Instead offighting to be free,Fightingfor our place in industry. Take yourwars out to the fields -Bats andballs alone to wield. Then youcan feel that you've just wonWithoutever firing a missile or gun.

The End of an Era

The End of an Era

Characterised by its warmth, wisdom and wit, Norah Hanson''s poetry has earned her thousands of devoted readers over the past three decades.With not a word wasted, the poet takes in the landmarks both of her native Hull and life itself, finding joy in the company of family and friends – but also in unhooking clasps, undoing buttons and donning pyjamas in an empty house (albeit one in which chores are never quite finished).In one perfectly-staged scene after another, love and beauty rub shoulders with tragedy and loss, while eighty years of history – an "era" in the truest sense – happen all at once, childhood and retirement walking hand-in-hand together across the page.

Meek

Meek

True voices abound in The Meek, Martin Dyar s second full-length collection of poems, throughout which a dramatically charged lyricism links environmental understanding with an emotive exploration of human experience and potential. The Meek is distinguished by the resonance and range of its stories, by its closeness to elemental landscape and wildlife, and by its moments of unforgettable insight and beauty. In one poem, A Lockdown Fox, The whole street felt acknowledged by the earth and longed for more. Elsewhere, in A Merlin in the Sheeffrys, There is a feeling that is equal to the land, / a sense of self that is the journey s length. And in the title sonnet, a powerful consideration of animal rights, one of Dyar s bruised and enigmatic characters arrives at a cold acceptance of nature s cold view / that all of life is love misunderstood.

How I terror.'Moving from colonial to post-colonial St Lucia, this debut collection brings to light the inheritances of four generations of women, developing monologues, lyrics and narrative poems which enable us to see how past dysfunction, tyranny and terror structure the shapes of women's lives, and what they hand down to one another. Uneasy inheritances are just the starting point for this debut's remarkable meditations: Should the stories of the past be told? Do they bring redemption or ruin? What are the costs of saying what happened? Beguiling and cathartic, Catherine-Esther Cowie's powerful, formally inventive poems reckon with the past even as they elegise and celebrate her subjects.

The Third City

The Third City

In The Third City, his most remarkable collection to date, James Peake once more offers us his unique combination of dream-like fluency and intellectual rigour. New and returning readers will discover an even more expansive poet in these pages, one who in poem after poem uncovers our capacity to love in full knowledge of the odds.Here Peake confirms his reputation for ‘pin-sharp and trance-like poems’ (Wild Court) which ‘show us different ways of seeing’ (Raceme). He is a poet of deep originality whose works of artful indirection fully realise our daily world, even as they transform its familiar constraints into staging posts for larger, less comprehensible, places.

You Missed the Best Part

You Missed the Best Part

You Missed The Best Part gathers award-winning poet Bradley Taylors spoken word pieces from the first years of his career. With a focus on the power of performance poetry, this collection acts as a documentation of the poems Bradley has travelled across the UK performing - in places such as the Hay Festival, on BBC News, in train stations, the backs of pubs and as part of his award-winning performance at the Roundhouse Poetry Slam 2024, the night of which was the biggest poetry slam in history.Also included here are a selection of poems written for strangers from Bradleys time performing ''Poetry on Demand'' - in which he takes his typewriter to festivals, events, bookshops and local parks across the country to gift strangers with a bespoke poem of their own choosing.Described as ''all at once surprising, entertaining and daring'' & ''playing a crucial role in the future of spoken word'' by Jasmine Gardosi, Bradleys work aims to showcase that poetry is for everyone and anyone - balancing humour with heart, Bradley writes for and about people; those he knows and has known, along with those people we hope to be or hope to never be again. You Missed The Best Part captures the moment that is always passing - this very moment - whether that be a moment in our lives, a moment on stage in front of an audience or a moment with a poem in front of us.

A Foreign Country

A Foreign Country

In A Foreign Country, Nigel Pantling takes us to some strange places - the exotic, the imaginary and the rediscovered past - and for each he serves up a heady local brew, equal parts memory, invention, wit and menace. Here, North Korean tourists rub shoulders with Syrian adventurers, the newly dead with a City lothario, Popeye and Olive Oyl with Cold War warriors. Surprising and unsettling by turns, these poems are a whistle-stop journey though different times, countries and customs, enriched by deep personal experience.

What She Said

What She Said

''In her stunning debut pamphlet, Ilisha Thiru Purcell reworks and revivifies the millennia old Tamil poetic practice of Thinnai – the poetics of a codified landscape – transplanting it to her home environment in the North East of England. Her perfectly crafted, almost elegiac poems root trauma and recovery deeply within a landscape which acts not just as witness, but also as a canvas. For me, reading What She Said felt like coming home: not to a home I once abandoned, but to the comforting presence of the old within the new. An exciting fresh voice which plays with form and metaphor with breath taking skill, this is diasporan poetics at its best.'' - Shash Trevett

Papilární linie

Papilární linie

Každý okamžik v životě zanechává otisk a sbírka Papilární linie je snahou zachytit tyto stopy do poetické mapy, ve které mají podobu krátkých, přesných a hluboce prožitých haiku. Tadeáš Šíma, cestovatel a autor dvou úspěšných cestopisů, píše haiku už čtyři roky – doma i na cestách, mezi včelími úly na Šumavě, na pytláckých stezkách v Kongu i u psacího stroje v tichu svého pokoje. Jeho poezie vyrůstá z hlubokého vztahu k přírodě, kterou nejen obdivuje, ale také aktivně chrání. Verše sbírky jsou jako otisky prstů – pomíjivé, a přesto zanechávající nesmazatelný dojem. Papilární linie lákají na prožití silných i křehkých okamžiků a na dojmy ze setkání s krajinou i lidmi. Jemnost jednotlivých haiku se odráží v půvabných ilustracích, které jsou stejně tak silné i citlivé. Papilární linie jsou jedinečné – stejně jako každý dotek, každý verš a každý člověk, který se jimi nechá vést.

Rome

Rome

Rafael Alberti’s collection of poems set in vibrant Rome, his home in exile from Spain. After his long exile in France and Argentina following the Spanish Civil War, Rafael Alberti’s final home in exile was Rome, where he wrote Roma: Peligro para caminantes (Rome: Pedestrians Beware). There, Romulus and Remus sneak down to the Tiber to suckle on feral cats, a jack of all trades pisses on the poet’s shoes, whistling as he walks away, and in the Campo de’ Fiori the poet compares sonnets with the wandering spirit of Giuseppe Gioachino Belli, all in the shadow of the glory of Rome’s imperial ruins. Two suites of sonnets open and close the book, while in between, Alberti displays masterful poems in metered and free verse, rhyming couplets, and a numbered series of short poems. The blending of classical tradition with post-modern echoes the darkness and luminosity that exist within the poems, tinged with longing, nostalgia, love, as well as hope. In the end, the Eternal City is a refuge for Alberti:”I left for you all that I once held dear. / Oh Rome, my sorrow pleads, hold out your hands / and give me everything I left for you.” This unique trilingual edition features exquisite and nuanced translations in English and Italian from the original Spanish by Anthony Geist and Giuseppe Leporace alongside visually evocative photographs of Rome by Adam Weintraub. Readers will want to take this poetic walk in Rome since what sometimes elicits caution, an aspect of danger, also becomes a destination for discovery.
