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’)

Kniha básní a fotografií Vigga Mortensena Všetko, čo nedá napísať (2026) ukazuje, že tento svetoznámy herec a režisér je človekom mnohých talentov a medzi tie ďalšie patrí poézia, fotografovanie a výtvarná tvorba.

Kniha Všetko, čo sa nedá napísať narúša ustálený spôsob vnímania toho, čo je všedné alebo výnimočné, čo je jedinečné a čo sa dá povedať o každom z nás. Kniha vychádza ako viacjazyčné vydanie a okrem básní v slovenskom preklade, obsahuje tiež originály textov v angličtine a španielčine. Preložili Eva Lalkovičová a Ján Gavura.

Řeka odnáší stíny stromů


Řeka odnáší stíny stromů je sbírkou tiché, všímavé poezie, která vyrůstá z každodenního okouzlení krajinou a městskou periférií. Filip Hrazdil v krátkých, přesných básních, volně inspirovaných poetikou haiku, zachycuje pomíjivost okamžiků, ročních dob i lidské blízkosti. Minimalistický jazyk a zdrženlivá obraznost dávají vyniknout tomu, co obvykle zůstává nepovšimnuto – tichu, paměti a křehké přítomnosti.

Get Closer


In his latest collection, Ryan Van Winkle uses photographs to access themes of abandonment, generational incomprehension and the very notion of how we end up where we are. This collection is a poetic photo album. Through these poems, Van Winkle looks at life through a lens – to get closer – to meditate on the anxieties and insecurities of a life. He reckons with how we remember and misremember, and how memories and people can be difficult, and at times painful, to hold on to. In reading this collection it becomes clear that while photographs can be carefully ordered, the emotions and impressions surrounding them cannot.

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.

Darkness


To interrogate darkness at this moment in history is not only timely, but vital and Bonnie Thurston does it with an honesty and precision that holds our attention. From the darkness of a melancholic disposition to darkness that shelters us safely, from sleepless nights and their moons to trusting in the return of the light on the darkest day and longest night, these pieces are poised, precise, full of sensory details, insightful and shot through with hope. There is fear and grief here, but it will not have the last word.

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.

Devour Everything


Devour Everything is a love letter to heroic failure, to creation in the face of destruction, to the mundane made sacred. Ranging from New York to small-town Aberdeenshire, from pop culture to Norse Valkyries, and wrestling with issues of motherhood, memory and loss, Sarah Stewart's deftly illuminating debut collection reminds us that as humans "we are animals / and our bodies remember things." Sumptuous, lyrical, and downright gorgeous throughout, 'Devour Everything' lives up to its title with gusto in its almost militant devotion to beauty. - Jane McKie 'Devour Everything' slides between worlds, crossing and recrossing the slippery borders between reality and illusion, past and present, memory and loss. Sharply observed, playful but deeply serious, these are poems that unsettle all our certainties. - Helen Tookey Sarah Stewart's close attention to the 'thrum of normality' often reveals the fragility within it, giving us poems poised at an edge, tingling with threat. The result is a finely tuned recital of human interactions, where we come to understand that life's encounters can be small but devastating. - Rebecca Goss

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?
