Terminal Surreal
This unflinching poetry collection follows the author’s diagnosis with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In her masterful poetry collection Terminal Surreal, Martha Silano confronts the reality of mortality with gorgeous attention to imagery and scene. The book follows a trajectory from early symptoms before diagnosis with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) to full-blown illness and its effects on friends and family, including her children, who appear in poems like “After Dropping My Son Off at College” and “My Nineteen-Year-Old Daughter Is My Personal Assistant.” With a devoted naturalist’s eye, Silano revels in birds, trees, and flowers in a way that reminds readers we are connected to the world around us. The book touches on the medical, the metaphysical, and even the cosmological (through encounters in medical offices and on a moon of Mars). With Nutter Butters and Lorna Doones, abecedarians and self-elegies, Silano’s singular, feisty, contemporary voice propels these poems of grief and acceptance as they explore the transformational power of art. When I Learn Catastrophically is an anagram of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. When I learn I probably have a couple years, maybe (catastrophically) less, crossword puzzles begin to feel meaningless, though not the pair of mergansers, not the red cardinal of my heart. The sky does all sorts of marvelously uncatastrophic things that winter I shimmy between science & song, between widgeons & windows, weather & its invitation to walk. Walking, which becomes my lose less, my less morsels, my lose smile while more sore looms. . . .
All That Refuses to Die
Winner of the Sillerman First Book Prize for African PoetsAll that Refuses to Die is a poetry collection that interrogates the present conditions of Africans through a historical lens. Michael Imossan moves into historical spaces such as museums and sites of enslavement, touching artifacts that hold meaning, and asking, Where was Africa? Where is Africa now? And what has changed? The Biafran War that claimed three million lives, though declared over, still has its lingering effect on Nigeria and Nigerians. Congo, though free of King Leopold and the exploitation of cotton, is still not free of other kinds of exploitation, nor is Uganda. Though the slave trade has ended, African bodies are still found in the Sahara Desert and in the Atlantic Ocean. All that Refuses to Die is a collection that brims with stories and memories that evoke as well as provoke. As he moves through historical places, the poet compares the past with the present and finds that nothing has really changed.
Our Prediction
An intimate archive emptied and overwritten by a fear of words, a book of mingled fatesThe poems of Our Prediction are lifted from a folder of sketchy reports recalling the strange neutrality of the ancient chorus. And this intimate archive exposes a fear of language concealed at the root of poetry, delivering a book in which doubt, shame, and dread overtake poetry’s stereotypical love affair with words, a book that crosses over into the exclusion zone of stupidity and never returns. Breeding and scavenging without scruple or restraint, the "bare life" of these unauthorized poems invariably confuses reading and writing. Listening becomes the business of speaking, of saying we but not asking who. And in its crooked way, the crooked text may begin to sound like a campfire oath of senseless plots and garbled refrains. For the listener soon will be surrounded by an accident of voices – a cassandrian short cut – exposing the particulars of not-yet-being.
Coda
Experimental lyric and narrative poetry that brings together philosophy, theology, and humor. The nameless narrator of Coda attempts to trace the origins of linguistic and perceptual differentiation by experimenting with contemporary lyric and narrative forms. Moving between extravagant prosody and obsessive disquisition, Seidenberg’s poetry works to reconfigure conceptual imperatives found throughout philosophy and theology. With a focus on the structure of memory and the decadence of the body, Seidenberg describes the epistemological regress of desire, intention, knowledge, and discernment. Seidenberg brings together the language and concerns of figures including Spinoza, Kant, Hegel, and Wittgenstein, alongside elements of raucous humor drawn from the tradition of Rabelais, Beckett, Lispector, and Sterne.

Found in a Context of Destruction
Noted novelist and essayist Tim MacGabhann's debut collection demonstrates a rare confidence and coherence. These formally assured and blackly funny poems chart the course of addiction and recovery, contemplating the injuries a body and mind can sustain, and what joys we find in these darker spaces in the shape of friendship, music, and community. The spare, stark poems of love and survival in Found in a Context of Destruction open windows on rarely-seen vistas, bringing us on a delirious but vividly captured journey from Ireland to Mexico.
Homography
Homography: mapping multiple perspectives of a single subject; words with same form, different meaning (see gay); homosexual history approached through autobiography; projective transformation (from personal to political plane); the third poetry collection from Polari Prize longlisted Nathan Evans, host of Bold Queer Poetry Soirée, edited by Joelle Taylor. George Michael, Freddie Mercury, Derek Jarman and the Royal Vauxhall Tavern are just some of the icons you’ll find within poems exploring queer heritage through queer relationships, using imagery drawn from the natural world and the underworld of fetish, in forms as diverse as the LGBTQ+ community, with humour, hope and honesty.
Nespatřené myšlenky
Nespatřené myšlenky jsou tichým křikem duše, která touží být vyslyšena. Otevírají prostor těm, kdo se cítili sami nebo neviditelní uprostřed světa. Každý zápis je zrcadlem – někdy krutým, jindy laskavým.
Pro ty, kdo se hledají. A pro ty, kdo se konečně rozhodli cítit.

Tigress With Wings
Tigress With Wings is a tender and laugh-out-loud collection which weaves a poetic narrative of transformation – from girl to woman. The tigress becomes an emblem for adulthood, a mythical hybrid with the fierce strength of a tiger and the ability to fly. Tigress With Wings reads like a long phone call – to your younger self, to your mother, and to your artist-godmothers. The poems follow a girl as she learns to live in her body, claim her voice and awaken her own power. Intimately woven with the poet’s Panjabi heritage this is a celebration of feminine strength, creativity, and survival.

Lily was here
LILY WAS HERE je známa jazzová skladba, ktorá obletela celý svet. Na motívy melódie saxofónového sóla hudobníčky Candy Dalfer autorka vytvorila originálnu básnickú kompozíciu o jazere, o tom, kam odchádza hudba a čo nakoniec zostáva z objatia. O tom, či tu Lily skutočne bola. Príbehy rozličných tajuplných postáv, odohrávajúce sa za podivuhodných okolností na brehu jazera, sprevádzajú ilustrácie Daniela Brunovského.
Behind the State Capitol: Or Cincinnati Pike
With the original remaining copies destroyed in a 1982 arson fire at the Fag Rag/Good Gay Poets offices, a beloved cult classic returns to print for the first time in five decadesAlready known as a "poet''s poet," John Wieners (1934–2002) moved to Boston''s Beacon Hill in 1972, where he was involved with anti-war and gay liberation movements and organizations devoted to the rights of people with mental health conditions. Out of this milieu emerged Behind the State Capitol, described by its author as "Cinema decoupages; verses, abbreviated prose insights." It is the record of a poet whose life has been shattered by poverty, drug addiction and mental illness. Wieners creates a complex schizo-analysis of language, capitalism, incarceration and state power, while reflecting on unpopular themes of aging and loneliness in the gay world.Considered by many to be his poetical masterpiece, the book was met variously with indifference and outrage when it was published in 1975. In 1982, most remaining copies of the book were destroyed in the Fag Rag/Good Gay Poets arson. Available in print for the first time in 50 years, this revitalized edition contains new afterwords by Wieners'' friend James Dunn and the poet''s biographer Robert Dewhurst.
Sonnets
A beautiful deluxe gift edition of Shakespeare's immortal poems with foiled covers, marbled endpapers, sprayed edges, beautiful paper and finished with a silk ribbon.
Love sonnets are for romantics, starry-eyed lovers and ardent hearts. And Shakespeare's sonnets are the best ever written. But this is why they are also for cynics, for star-crossed lovers and for those who know the anguish of unrequited love. Some appear to be written to a young man, some to a woman. And although the poems are full of mystery - why did Shakespeare write them, and to whom? - each one speaks to us from across the centuries of love, hate and the intensity of being alive.
Later Life Letter
'A really remarkable, deeply moving book' RICHARD CURTIS'Utterly direct . . . The poems are passionate yet controlled, simple in form and sparing of imagery' FINANCIAL TIMES'Luke wright and this time it's personal. But seriously, a highly original idea, expertly carried out' JOHN COOPER CLARKE'I was bawling from the first page and gulped it down in one swift swallow' HOLLIE MCNISHWhat is a later life letter? Written by a child's social worker to be opened at an appropriate age, it details their journey from birth to adoption. When Luke Wright received his as a teenager, he didn't think much of it. But now, married to a social worker and seeing the care she takes with these letters, he re-examines his own past - and the life he might have had. Should he feel close to the biological brothers he knows only through social media? Do his beginnings in a notorious tower-block estate counteract the privilege of a sheltered suburban upbringing? How grateful should he be to adopted parents who are - in the end - simply parent? n this memoir in poetry, no emotion is simple or expected. Wright writes with pinpoint honesty, teasing out the nuances of family, memory and belonging, and illuminating the gaps in the familiar beats of an adoption story. 'When it comes to poetry, performing and family Luke Wright is a lifer. Read this book' LEMN SISSAY'Made me laugh, cry, think and shudder' PETE DOHERTY'Intimate and universal, epic and singular. Beautifully written' JOELLE TAYLOR'A genius poet - funny, profound, life-changing' JOHANN HARI
Dream Latitudes
I am drawing a map of distances. The swimmer. The sleeper. The dreamer. Another afternoon traipsing the incomprehensiblecorridors of the brain. Nothing uttered. Alia Kobuszko's poetry is as immediate as it is mysterious. She is unafraid of detonating form or trusting a quiet phrase, and saturates these poems with surreal and sensuous aspects. In this enchanting and piercing debut, strange horses gallop - embodying metamorphic freedom and power. The speaker becomes the rider, the horse itself and even the field, enacting how the poet inhabits and unanchors their subject so that 'girl and horse / stand still- / field runs through them.'
plastic
Set during a single twelve-hour night shift in a factory, plastic is a book-length poem exploring the life of the industrial worker turned poet. Bringing together memoir, ekphrasis and satire, Bplastic is based on Matthew Rice’s experience working in a plastic moulding factory for ten years. Illustrating alienated twenty-first-century Irish labour in poetic form, plastic engages with the inflictions and implications of a ‘post-industrial’, ‘post-Troubles’ society, all while weaving in depictions of factory work from literature, film and the visual arts. Time-stamped to highlight the claustrophobia of the worker’s experience, this is a poem about feeling a calling while being submerged in the world of menial labour – making plastic airplane parts by night, making poetry by day, uniting what Jacques Ranciere calls the ‘labourers in love with the intellectual nights’ and those ‘intellectuals in love with the toilsome and glorious days of the labouring people.’ plastic’s evocation and lucidity moves with grace through working class realities and hopeful imaginings.
Only Sing
The never-before-published poems of one of the great American poets, edited and introduced by Shane McCrae. Only Sing is a continuation of John Berryman's vast project The Dream Songs. These 152 never-before-published poems are an expansion of this epic of the American twentieth-century psyche. In the voice and figure of Henry - riddled with desire, self-loathing and a permanent sense of being odds with the world - Berryman created, in the words of McCrae, 'a hero for a disenchanted nation'. Berryman never saw these dream songs in print but he was content that if they ever appeared, it would 'be up to the reader to fit those poems in among the published ones'.
