The Doll’s House Maker’s Room


The Dolls’ House Maker’s Room sits in a house of tools and memories, the tools as much metaphors as objects, the memories laden with objects and images, with the places and events that shape what we know and what we don’t. A maven of gentle surprise, Robin Thomas’ language is supple, generous and deeply reflective; his observations sharp, quick-witted and beautifully controlled. There is a signature breadth of reference in these poems — travel, film, the absurdities of life and human history, art, mortality, loss — united by a confident, distinctive, humane voice. bats foxes planes clouds lives made and unmade revolutions tea and cake a stately moon eternal stars I wake. It’s day. You’re still not here. (from ‘Wake’)

Řeka odnáší stíny stromů


Řeka odnáší stíny stromů je sbírkou tiché, všímavé poezie, která vyrůstá z každodenního okouzlení krajinou a městskou periférií.

Minimalistický jazyk a zdrženlivá obraznost dávají vyniknout tomu, co obvykle zůstává nepovšimnuto – tichu, paměti a křehké přítomnosti.

The Opposites Game


AUTHOR OF FIVE POETRY COLLECTIONS • NATIONALLY RECOGNIZED AUTHOR, Brendan Constantine presents his newest collection, The Opposites Game. A playful and profound meditation on language, binaries, and the radical act of seeing each other more clearly. In his fifth collection of verse, The Opposites Game, poet Brendan Constantine inspires us to revel in the abundance of life by reckoning its many astonishments (and antonyms). Through a simple yet profound framework of odes, lists, memoirs, and classroom assignments, Constantine asks us to think critically about how we define and understand each other, urging us to look beyond simplistic binaries and engage with the deeper nuances of meaning. The Opposites Game is a powerful reminder of the intricate relationship between words and the realities they represent, and an invitation to explore the rich, beautiful, and often perilous terrain of human thought and emotion.

Bronte Journey


Liliana Pasterska is the maven of finding emotional depth in the detail of the everyday. In Brontë Journey we are invited to walk alongside a love story, one that is sundered by loss, yet shines all the more brightly for that. The language is clear and precise. The places resonate with the beauty and grief that unfold in the personal story of Charlotte Brontë and Arthur Bell Nichols at the heart of the collection. The voices of her subjects carry across time, not an act of ventriloquism, but of empathy and immersion. And if for Arthur, grieving as he leaves Yorkshire six years after Charlotte’s early and sudden death, “Roadside fuchsia will greet him / as if nothing had passed.”, the clue is in the ‘as if’. For so much has passed and this exquisite collection has allowed us in, invited us to share a moment with creatures whose lives still touch us. An elegant, heart-stopping collection.

Ott maradtok egymásnak


A középkorúságnak nincs története - nem csoda, ha igazából csak versben lehet róla hitelesen beszélni. A mindennapok apróbb-nagyobb számvetésein egyszerre túl és innen a hétköznapok megbékélései és megalkuvásai közötti területet térképezik fel Grecsó Krisztián versei. A szövegek egyszerre szólnak felismerhetően a máról, és idéznek meg ősi, bibliai történeteket: felismerve, hogy a változás nemzedékeken át lehet ugyanolyan, mégis másmilyen.

Naskladané


Eva Konrádyová (1972) debutovala v roku 1999 zbierkou Venované. Na básne, ktoré vložila do druhej zbierky, čakala pokojne ako na úrodu celé desaťročie a nesú názov Pozbierané (2009). Verná svojmu naturelu a autorskému rukopisu, pridáva do tretice knihu Naskladané (2025). Výsledkom zhromažďovania textov, ktoré naznačujú jej vzťah k výtvarnému, hudobnému či filmovému umeniu, a ich ukladania do priestoru rodiny, priateľstiev i konkrétnych cestovateľských zážitkov je zaujímavý pokus o dialóg so svojím vnútorným ja a s Bohom. Verše nadväzujú na autorkinu predchádzajúcu tvorbu otvorenosťou aj autobiografickými motívmi. (Silvia Kaščáková)

Az égbolt gyökerei


Az égbolt gyökerei Michal Habaj szlovák költő egyik legfontosabb verseskötete, poszthumanista hangvétele máig friss, eredeti hangot képvisel. Ez a kulcsfontosságú verseskötet 2020-ban változatlan formában újra megjelent a Kiborgok éneke című gyűjteményben. „Ha egy versben azt kérdezem, a víz fekete-fehér vagy színes képet közvetít-e, az egy hiteles és őszinte kérdés, amelyre abban a pillanatban nem tudtam válaszolni. Ha azt mondom, hogy nézd meg a régi könyvekben, nézd meg a régi festményeken, az annak a következménye, hogy a metarealitás – ami a médiarealitás egyik arca – sokkal inkább kéznél van, mint maga a valóság. És a világban, amelyről Az égbolt gyökerei című kötetben írok, az egyetlen lehetőség, hogy megtapasztaljuk az igazságot azokról a dolgokról, amelyeket a kiborg már csak ősrégi könyvekből, festményekből vagy videofelvételekből ismer. A kiborg nem a jövő, a kiborg ma már ott csírázik bennünk.” (Michal Habaj)

? / Return


Rooted in the classical tradition of the Chinese “reversible” poem, ? / Return is engaged in the act of looking back—toward an imagined homeland and a childhood of suburban longing, through migratory passages, departures, and etymologies, and into the various holes and voids that appear in the telling and retelling of history. The poems ask: What is feeling? What is melancholy? Can language translate either?

Kde si húsky pásla?


Už názov zbierky Jaroslava Čierneho Kde si húsky pásla? priamo naznačuje folklórny charakter textov. A veru je to tak: autor pri výstavbe básní zvolil veľmi zaujímavú koncepciu, podľa ktorej stavia všetky básne v tejto zbierke. Ako uvádzaciu platformu používa verše zo známych ľudových piesní, na ktoré následne naväzuje svoje autorské, pričom však veľmi často používa moment prekvapenia. Čitateľ totiž pozná obsah týchto ľudových piesní a vie ich motív i ideu. Autor však vo svojich veršoch mení ideu, často aj charakter očakávaného obsahu: napr. keď sa báseň začne konkrétnou optimistickou ľudovou piesňou, básnik následne radí motív vojny a smútku za milou. A to je jeden z hlavných prínosov tejto zbierky: hoci sa autor odráža od ľudových veršov, rozvíja vlastné idey a motívy; pritom však koncepčne, čiastočne formálne i motivicky zachováva atmosféru ľudovej piesne. Tematicky a motivicky sú centrom básnikovho záujmu – aj vzhľadom na ľudovofolklórnu platformu básní – medziľudské vzťahy, narodenie, láska, ľudské emócie, deti, ... a to všetko na pozadí večného kolobehu prírody – od jari až po vianočný čas a zimu. V dobe tzv. postmodernistickej, experimentovacej, aspoň čo do tvorby básní, veľmi dobre padne čítanie založené na základných ľudských hodnotách a slovenskom ľudovom folklóre.

The New Carthaginians


SHORTLISTED FOR THE TS ELIOT PRIZE 2025SHORTLISTED FOR THE JHALAK PRIZE 2026'© Codex' SHORTLISTED FOR THE FORWARD PRIZE FOR BEST SINGLE POEMLONGLISTED FOR THE GRIFFIN POETRY PRIZE 2026'Profound, sheer originality... a tantalising jigsaw puzzle of a book' Tristram Fane-Saunders, TelegraphIn The New Carthaginians, time – and with it the world – is out of joint. A hijacked plane lands at Entebbe International Airport in 1976, triggering the crisis that will lead to Idi Amin’s Uganda becoming a pariah state and, within a few years, to the young Nick Makoha’s flight from the country. A mysterious writer daubs poetic slogans on the walls of late-’70s New York City, signing them SAMO©. Three characters who are also one – the Poet, a Black Icarus and a resurrected Jean-Michel Basquiat – journey through a time that is both our own and not, watching TV, discussing art and literature and tucking their wings into their jackets on the way to airport security. Concerned throughout with flight and falling, the sample and the loop, The New Carthaginians is a poetry collection of staggering originality: a work by an author at the height of his powers, in which the familiar Western canons of art, history and philosophy are prised apart and reassembled in a new configuration. Drawing on Basquiat’s technique of the ‘exploded’ collage, our heroes’ odyssey gathers the symbols of a new mythos, through which the othering of Black life might be undone and the stage set for some fresh emergence, some transfigured understanding of myth and life. ‘Hold that note,’ writes the poet. ‘In this place you are no longer the chorus … In any future, remember you are a New Carthaginian.’A FINANCIAL TIMES BEST SUMMER BOOK OF POETRY 2025‘In this book, Nick Makoha has found an otherworldly, visionary voice and diction that arrest you from the first page and never let you go.’ Jason Allen-Paisant, Winner of the TS Eliot Prize

Into the Hush


LONGLISTED FOR THE NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD A PEN / JEAN STEIN BOOK AWARD FINALIST'Wise, beguiling... a treasure and a beacon of a poet, whose indispensable body of work offers no less than a way to navigate this world' Sarah HoweA new collection and first UK publication from the Poet Laureate of the United StatesArthur Sze has long been renowned for his constellation of vision and generous imagination – able to hold the aspen leaf and the mountain range, the water droplet and the crashing surf in the same stunning poetic field. Turning his attention to habitat destruction, language extinction, mortality and so much more, Into the Hush sketches a world slipping into silence, asking what we lose to it, what emerges, and what can be held in its aperture. Sze draws together a startling array of imagery in these quietly forceful poems that render our complex universe with profound simplicity and clarity. Sze’s lyric voice – which at times inhabits the body of a jaguar and even an eraser – moves between chaos and stillness with supple agility, challenging our notions of traditional poetic forms such as the haibun, zuihitsu, sonnet and pantoum to break open new avenues of expression that speak to our fragmented world. Attuned to the underlying network that connects all things, Into the Hush charts a thrilling journey from silence into sound, from emptiness into the rich possibilities of existence.
