Suttogások sötétben
A Kossuth-díjas költő Tőzsér Árpád (1935) verseket és "versesszéket" tartalmazó új könyve az elmúlt évek terméséből válogat. Sajátos nyelvhasználat, magyar és világirodalmi kontextusba helyezett versbeszéd, karantén-lét, a "vénség lírájának" filozófiája. Mindez olyan pozícióból szólal meg, mintha "a vers homályából valóban feléd intene a költők s a mély egek szótlan istene". A kötet szellemi iránya visszafelé tart - a lét bázisa, a születés felé. "Minden idős ember előrenéz még, de hátrál attól, ami előtte van, s így végül is inkább hátrafelé lát, mintsem előre." Gondolat, költészet, létezés - ők a kötet főszereplői, úgyis mint az "utolsó ellenállók".
Svet, ktorý sme nestratili
Výber z poézie ruskej exilovej poetky, novinárky a disidentky Natalie Gorbanevskej v preklade Jána Štrassera.
Natalia Gorbanevska (1936 2013) sa narodila v Moskve. V roku 1964 absolvovala Leningradskú univerzitu. Po tom, ako sa začala angažovať v disidentskom hnutí, jej poézia mohla vychádzať už len v samizdate. V apríli roku 1968 edične pripravila prvé číslo samizdatového časopisu Kronika súčasných udalostí s podtitulom Rok ľudských práv v Rusku. 25. augusta 1968 spolu so siedmimi priateľmi protestovala na Červenom námestí proti sovietskej okupácii v Československu. Bola zatknutá, na rozdiel od ostatných protestujúcich ju však ako matku trojmesačného syna vzápätí prepustili. Uväznili ju v decembri 1969 a o rok neskôr ju prehlásili za duševne chorú a umiestnili do psychušky, tak sa v Sovietskom zväze hovorilo väzenským psychiatrickým zariadeniam, ktoré sa zneužívali na týranie politických väzňov. Po prepustení v roku 1972 sa znovu zapojila do disidentského hnutia, pod hrozbou ďalšieho väznia sa však nakoniec rozhodla odísť do exilu. Od roku 1975 až do svojej smrti žila v Paríži.

Kadiš
Mezi nejznámější básnické skladby Allena Ginsberga patří vedle Kvílení i Kadiš, velkolepý žalozpěv na básníkovu zesnulou matku, jejíž duševní choroba silně poznamenala jeho dětství a dospívání. Zárodky básně vznikly v Paříži v roce 1957, kde si Ginsberg společně s beatnickými tvůrci Gregorym Corsem, Peterem Orlovskym a později i Williamem S. Burroughsem prostřednictvím halucinogenů rozšiřoval sféru vědomí. V Kadiši se mu časem podařilo vypsat se z hlubokých traumat, přičemž k odemknutí bran podvědomí použil divotvorné klíče: valná část Kadiše vznikla pod vlivem morfinu a metamfetaminu a konečnou revizi provedl až po návratu z Peru, kde k tomu účelu požil ayahuasku neboli yagé.
Výmluvné jsou názvy dalších básní ve sbírce, například Meskalin, Kyselina lysergová, Ether či Rajský plyn; autor v nich opět vymítá ducha Naomi Ginsbergové, lamentuje nad iluzorností univerza, zakouší pocity tvůrčího zmaru i extázi z duchovního prozření a v psychedelickém proudu vědomí ze sebe nechává volně řinout vize, nářky, chvalozpěvy i obavy ze zániku smrtelného těla aby k nám po šedesáti letech skrze ony širokodeché verše stále živě promlouval jeho duch.
Básnická sbírka Kadiš a jiné básně (Kaddish and Other Poems), kterou Allen Ginsberg vydal v roce 1961 u Lawrence Ferlinghettiho v nakladatelství City Lights Books, obsahuje jeho básně z konce padesátých let (19581960) v již klasickém překladu Jana Zábrany. Čtyři dosud nepřeložené básně pak přeložil Bob Hýsek.
Paraszomnia
Szabó Fanni költészete elvont és furcsa, nehéz és zavart keltő. Megosztó, mint az igazi ínyencségek. Ám akit magával ragad, annak rendhagyó élményei lesznek: egy egzotikus filozófiai és érzelmi világutazás. Tudatos fürdőzés a kollektív tudattalanban. Meghökkentő, hogy milyen témákat talál magának a költő, és miként kivitelezi azokat. Bámulatos szinte felelőtlen, merész alternativitása, ahogy pengeélen táncol, ahogy mindig úgy csűri-csavarja a gondolatokat és a nyelvet, ahogy mi nem tennénk.
Umami. Az ötödik íz.
Szabó Fanni 1999-ben született. Tamásiban nőtt fel, Siófokon érettségizett. Történelmet tanul az Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem Bölcsészettudományi Karán. Az Előretolt Helyőrség Íróakadémia hallgatója. Ez az első kötete.
Básne
Jim Harrison (1937 - 2016) vystihol svoj vzťah k poézii slovami: "Napísal som pomerne dosť románov a poviedok, no niekedy mi pripadajú ako niečo navyše, robustné mäso na skutočných kostiach môjho života." Zbierka Splývanie unaveného plavca (Dead Man´s Float), výberom z ktorej je táto kniha, vyšla len niekoľko mesiacov pred jeho smrťou. Neobchádza v nej ťažké údery, ktoré mu uštedril osud. Vyjadruje sa bez zábran. Hovorí o veciach, o ktorých uvažujeme aj my, no zväčša si tieto myšlienky nechávame pre seba. Okrem svojich zvyčajných tém v poslednej zbierke zmieňuje neúprosnú fyzickú bolesť a znechutenie z vlastnej bezmocnosti. Jeho poézia tým však nadobúda ešte väčšiu hĺbku. Harrison, ako životom unavený plavec, zároveň splýva s prírodou, stáva sa jej neoddeliteľnou súčasťou.

Smederevo
Goran Đorđević je básnik početnej generácie srbských básnikov narodených po 2. svetovej vojne. Narodil sa roku 1952 v obci Kolari pri Smedereve, meste na Dunaji, so známou pevnosťou (rozprestiera sa na takmer 13 hektároch), ktoré bolo posledným sídelným mestom stredovekého Srbska a ako posledné padlo do rúk Turkom. Dejiny smederevskej siahajú až do staroveku (Lepenski vir, Vinča). Autor čerpá inšpiráciu tak z dejín, ako aj zo súčasnosti, keď ako starosta Smedereva sa mal postarať o takmer desaťtisíc srbských utečencov z Kosova. Dnes je riaditeľom medzinárodného festivalu Smederevská básnická jeseň, na ktorej najvyššie ocenenie - Zlatý kľúč - udelili aj Milanovi Rúfusovi. Poctený bol početnými cenami a básňami je zastúpený vo viac ako dvadsiatich antológiách v Srbsku a v zahraničí a jednotlivé preklady vyšli v angličtine, francúzštine, nemčine, ruštine, japončine, čínštine, španielčine, taliančine a v ďalších jazykoch. Zbierka je výberom z celoživotnej básnickej tvorby tohto významného srbského autora.
Space Between Us
A universal narrative on the significance of distance with love; remember to hold on to what you believe in. Ideal for those "whose love knows no bounds," The Space Between Us is full of profound anecdotes and messages, illustrating the courage and heartache of enduring physical distance.
The Space Between Us explores the trials of love and what it's like to live a life separated by distance from someone you care about. Its content is thoughtfully divided into five chapters, or phases, of the long-distance experience:
At First Glance
Living for Tomorrow
Lonely Nights
Grow Together/Grow Apart
When I See You.
A combination of poems and prose are sporadically connected with small graphics and maps to visualize the journey of physical distance. These poems serve as an adhesive between the reader and the ones they miss, the longing, the anticipation, and the eventual relief. Though both authors bring with them a unique perspective, the lens is singular; each is attuned to navigating this complex terrain.
Film for Her

Film photography isn't just eye candy; it's timeless and romantic-the ideal complement to Carloto's writing. In Film for Her, much like a visual diary, word and image are intertwined in a book perfect for both gift and self-purchase.

Dearly
The collection of a lifetime from the bestselling novelist, poet -- and cultural phenomenon
Before she became one of the world's most important and loved novelists, Margaret Atwood was a poet. Dearly is her first collection in over a decade. It brings together many of her most recognisable and celebrated themes, but distilled -- from minutely perfect descriptions of the natural world to startlingly witty encounters with aliens, from pressing political issues to myth and legend.
By turns moving, playful and wise, the poems gathered in Dearly are about absences and endings, ageing and retrospection, but also about gifts and renewals. They explore bodies and minds in flux, as well as the everyday objects and rituals that embed us in the present. Werewolves, sirens and dreams make their appearance, as do various forms of animal life and fragments of our damaged environment.
Dearly is a pure Atwood delight, and long-term readers and new fans alike will treasure its insight, empathy and humour.
Useless Magic
The perfect gift for fans of Florence + the Machine, with additional lyrics, poems and a new chapter of sermons
Songs can be incredibly prophetic, like subconscious warnings or messages to myself, but I often don't know what I'm trying to say till years later. Or a prediction comes true and I couldn't do anything to stop it, so it seems like a kind of useless magic.
'Pop's high priestess bares her soul in this candid collection of poems and lyrics' Observer
'A treasure . . . beautiful. Generous in its honesty, by the end you feel as though you have climbed into the colourful, and sometimes tortured, world of a passionate artist' i

And Still I Rise
A new cover reissue of AND STILL I RISE, first published in 1986, from Maya Angelou, one of the most celebrated writers and poets of the world.
A beautiful and inspiring collection of poetry by Maya Angelou, author of I KNOW WHY THE CAGED BIRD SINGS and 'a brilliant writer, a fierce friend and a truly phenomenal woman' (BARACK OBAMA).
Maya Angelou's poetry - lyrical and dramatic, exuberant and playful - speaks of love, longing, partings; of Saturday night partying, and the smells and sounds of Southern cities; of freedom and shattered dreams.
Poor
What is it like to grow up in a place where the same police officer who told your primary school class they were special stops and searches you at 13 because 'you fit the description of a man' - and where it is possible to walk two and a half miles through an estate of 1,444 homes without ever touching the ground?
In Poor, Caleb Femi combines poetry and original photography to explore the trials, tribulations, dreams and joys of young Black boys in twenty-first century Peckham. He contemplates the ways in which they are informed by the built environment of concrete walls and gentrifying neighbourhoods that form their stage, writes a coded, near-mythical history of the personalities and sagas of his South London youth, and pays tribute to the rappers and artists who spoke to their lives.
Above all, this is a tribute to the world that shaped a poet, and to the people forging difficult lives and finding magic within it. As Femi writes in one of the final poems of this book: 'I have never loved anything the way I love the endz.'
She's Strong, but She's Tired
From New York Times bestselling author r.h. Sin, an ode to the women who have chosen to fight for themselves. A poetic documentation of pain, loneliness, courage, and triumph.
Be(loved)
Every heart deserves a voice. From the jungles of Cambodia and a chance encounter with a local medicine woman comes Be(loved), poet Dakota Adan's debut collection of poems, tracing the epic question of what it means to be loved. Hailed as "an essential book for those seeking self-love," this heartfelt anthology lends voice to the heartbreak and healing of our soul's quest to reunite with whom we always hoped we could be-ourselves.
Dandelion
In this visually thrilling installment of the inner-workings of Gabbie's mind, we're taken on a journey of self-loathing, self-reflection, and ultimately, self-acceptance through deeply metaphorical imagery, chilling twists on child-like rhymes, and popular turns of phrase turned on their heads. Through raw, provocative tidbits, Dandelion explores what it means to struggle with a declining mental health in a world where mental health is both stigmatised and trivialised. The poems range from topics of rage and despair to downright silliness, so if you don't know whether to laugh or cry, just laugh until you cry.
Exclusive bonus content: a collection of uncomfortably honest personal essays about Gabbie's childhood and relationships.
Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass
THE HIGHLY ANTICIPATED DEBUT BOOK OF POETRY FROM LANA DEL REY, VIOLET BENT BACKWARDS OVER THE GRASS
'Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is the title poem of the book and the first poem I wrote of many. Some of which came to me in their entirety, which I dictated and then typed out, and some that I worked laboriously picking apart each word to make the perfect poem. They are eclectic and honest and not trying to be anything other than what they are and for that reason I'm proud of them, especially because the spirit in which they were written was very authentic. Lana Del Rey
Lana's breathtaking first book solidifies her further as 'the essential writer of her times' (The Atlantic). The collection features more than thirty poems, many exclusive to the book: Never to Heaven, The Land of 1,000 Fires, Past the Bushes Cypress Thriving, LA Who Am I to Love You?, Tessa DiPietro, Happy, Paradise Is Very Fragile, Bare Feet on Linoleum and many more. This beautiful hardcover edition showcases Lana's typewritten manuscript pages alongside her original photography. The result is an extraordinary poetic landscape that reflects the unguarded spirit of its creator.
Violet Bent Backwards Over the Grass is also brought to life in an unprecedented spoken word audiobook which features Lana Del Rey reading fourteen select poems from the book accompanied by music from Grammy Award-winning musician Jack Antonoff.
