Sudden Light

Sudden Light

Much of Sudden Light, Irish poet Enda Wyley’s 6th collection of poems, takes place in the centre of her native Dublin where the poet lives. Views and glimpses of the immediate city, both as foreground and background, as well as interactions with its inhabitants, comprise the daily exchange of life and create the sense of a present moment balanced on the city’s various layers of personal and shared history. Many of the poems respond to a wide range of paintings, from Janet Mullarney to Luca Signorelli, and photography is also an inspiration as if memory were a kind of picture-taking or -making – the job of the passing poet to observe, to record, and to move on.

Sculling

Sculling

In her unflinching and tenderly obsessive collection, Sculling, poet Sophie Dumont explores a deeply personal relationship to the River Avon, as she circles the curses that unravel from a canoe club. At the age of 16, Sophie Dumont trained to be a canoe coach before her own coach and partner of three years died suddenly in an aquaplaning road accident, which led to five of his organs continuing at least seven people''s lives. His heart was donated to a young man studying in the same city as he did.Using the kayak as a vessel to traverse life''s accumulation of losses, Sculling speaks of how this bereavement caused Dumont to reflect on her relationship to bodies of water, from her own body to the state of pollution in UK rivers. Here, she explores the campaign for rivers to be given personhood status for rights to protection and inspects the symbiosis of her body and the river''s. Sculling is a powerful investigation into categories of haunting, from a body living on through donated organs, through dementia''s slow erasure, and through witnessing her niece learn object permanence - that things continue to exist when they are not visible.In this fiercely vulnerable and meticulous debut, Dumont probes the urge to call out when under a bridge, to hear oneself ricocheted back, changed:''. . . a boy in a red cap opens his throat, throws sound into shadows, as we''ve all done, in the reckless hope of its return.''

Močál

Močál

Třetí básnická sbírka Martina Trdly Močál představuje výrazný posun od jeho dřívější „novinové poezie“ směrem k introspektivnímu a syrovému výrazu. Namísto vnějšího světa se tentokrát zaměřuje na krajinu vlastního nitra – temnou, rozbředlou a mnohdy nepohodlnou. V textech plných ironie, bolesti i černého humoru se Trdla nebojí pojmenovávat slabosti, prohry, závislosti a každodenní zmar bez příkras. Jazykem přesným jako tupý nůž z kalu duše vyřezává básně, které nechtějí líbit – ale chtějí být pravdivé. Močál je sbírkou hluboce osobní, ale zároveň neuzavřenou – každý čtenář v ní může najít odraz vlastní bažiny. V dnešní době přetvářky a filtrů působí její autenticita jako nečekané, ale o to potřebnější gesto.

Kdybys mě zabil, stejně bych neexistovala

Kdybys mě zabil, stejně bych neexistovala

Debutová básnická sbírka Martiny Kastnerové je odvážnou výpravou do prostoru mezi člověkem a světem, mezi nitrem a vnějškem, mezi zkušeností a její metafyzickou ozvěnou. Autorka, jejíž doménou je dosud literárněvědná a filozofická reflexe, zde vystupuje jako básnířka s výrazným jazykem a silnou emotivní naléhavostí. Její poezie navazuje na tradici moderního evropského myšlení i expresivní lyriky – zaznívají v ní tóny Holanovského patosu i současné introspektivní citlivosti. Sbírka není pouze souborem básní, ale organicky vystavěnou poémou, která vybízí k dialogu, k hlubšímu zamyšlení nad tím, co znamená být přítomen – v těle, v čase, v kultuře. Martina Kastnerová (nar. 1981) působí jako filozofka a literární teoretička. Tato kniha je jejím prvním básnickým vystoupením – a zároveň svědectvím o proměně odborného hlasu v poezii bytostně existenciální.

The Gallows Songs

The Gallows Songs

A collection of dazzling, playful, and linguistically inventive poetry by one of Germany''s finest writers, in a classic translation that honors the author''s amazing verbal acrobatics.Christian Morgenstern?s The Gallows Songs are some of the most delightful and imaginative creations of twentieth-century German poetry. Composed originally after an outing Morgenstern took with his friends to Gallows Hill near Potsdam, these lively, puckish poems envision Gallows Hill as a fantastical world populated with fabulous animals, bizarre mechanisms, and some truly unruly punctuation.Morgenstern felt that people often used their familiar language unthinkingly, without ever pausing to marvel at the glorious arbitrariness of words. Through poems chock-full of irresistible wordplay and unabashedly exuberant rhymes, he invites us to meditate?but also to med-it-nine and med-i-ten?on all the incidents and accidents of language that make the world of words so vibrant.True to the spirit of Morgenstern?s linguistic mischief, Max Knight?s translation sparkles with uncommon wit as it reinvents in English Morgenstern?s daring verbal acrobatics, and is itself a feat of poetic genius.

Mouth

Mouth

Quick before the story ebbs away.There are things I need to tell youA work of great strength and equal delicacy, Mouth transports us to a world where violence hangs in the air, where beauty, pity and cruelty intertwine. The sequence at its heart, Palace, takes the overlooked women from the edges of Greek tragedy and places them centre stage, to tell unforgettable stories of survival and loss. With new depth and force, their voices set off echoes with women navigating the terrible reality and aftermath of war today.As a human rights lawyer, Arshi saw power and its abuses, the structures of silencing set against refugees. As a poet, she charts the movements and migrations that change the course of our lives – from child to adult, from home to elsewhere, from grief to what lies beyond.Mouth is a complex and original study of speaking’s limitations, chasms in communication, but also the unexpected power of silence: ‘sometimes / language picks us clean’.

Spodoby, 3. vydání

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“.

One Big Time

One Big Time

Lisa Fishman’s latest collection, One Big Time, is a stunning articulation of the author’s “journey-in-place” in the environs around a one-room cabin in Northeastern Ontario over a period of fourteen days in quarantine.Here is the author at her most exacting and exploratory, in poems that hew with lyric precision to the immediate physical and geologic environment. At the same time, language is an alert, mobile life-form in active investigation of what one thinks one understands, and of where one thinks one is. While the poet quests daily for a passageway from one body of water into another, words live in other words (“the hemlock / is a he / today”), and acrostics are illuminations: s-w-i-m is “sleek widening instant’s magnet.” Surprised by joy, these biocentric poems offer a way of being in the world with wonder and rigor––attentive enough to be lost, unknowing enough to be changed.

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.

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.

Dante's Inferno

Dante's Inferno

Finalist for the Governor General Literary Awards 2025Shortlisted for the OCM Bocas Lit Prize for Caribbean Literature 2026Longlisted for the Jhalak Poetry Prize 2026'Halfway tree. The journey of our life found me / there at midnight in a ramshackle state.' So begins Lorna Goodison's astonishing new translation of The Inferno by Dante, a poet she once described as 'uncompromising as an Old Testament prophet, stern as a Rastafarian elder'. This Jamaican Dante, a quarter-century in the making, is as much transformation as it is translation: the poet's narrator, its Dante figure, is now guided through an underworld by Goodison's great Jamaican predecessor Louise Bennett, 'Miss Lou' in the book. Goodison draws on the entire continuum of Jamaican speech yet securely grounds the action in Dante's formal architecture, bringing an entire world to life: we encounter other poets, including Goodison's friend Derek Walcott, as well as Caribbean politicians, reggae innovators and other public figures. Here, she recreates the journey through the 'unpaved and rocky road' of Dante's Hell for a contemporary audience and attempts to do for Caribbean vernacular what Dante did for his Italian language in the fourteenth century - endow it with an entirely new vocal music and power.

The Gender of Sound

The Gender of Sound

History is filled with unacceptable noises: high pitch, gossip, talkativeness, hysteria, wailing and ritual shouts. Who makes them? Those deviant from or deficient in the masculine ideal of self-control: women, catamites, eunuchs and androgynes fall into this category. From the myths of antiquity to Margaret Thatcher via Sigmund Freud and Gertrude Stein, The Gender of Sound charts the gendering of voice through Western culture. This enquiry into the way we hear sounds invites reimagining our conceptions of human order, virtue and selfhood.Putting a door on the female mouth has been an important project of patriarchal culture from antiquity to the present day. Its chief tactic is an ideological association of female sound with monstrosity, disorder and death.
