New Cemetery


POETRY BOOK SOCIETY RECOMMENDATIONThe Poet Laureate makes peace with the dead in this highly imaginative and wide-ranging new collection.The conversion of a local natural-beauty spot into a municipal graveyard is the starting point for New Cemetery. From regular walks around the boundary near his moorland home in West Yorkshire, Simon Armitage chronicles the extraordinary transformation of landscape both outer and inner. These luminous and wry poems – composed in short-lined tercets – reflect the changing world: one of unstable weather patterns and unpredictable news events, all observed across a few acres of Pennine upland.As seasons come and go and the cemetery fills up with new ''residents’, Armitage charts personal losses of his own, often retreating to his garden shed to navigate blank paper with pen and ink. Encompassing lyrical revelations and everyday vignettes alongside apocalyptic visions and imagined conversations with the deceased, these pages draw us into a parallel neighbourhood of remembrance and celebration.

Selected Poetry


Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844-89) is now recognized as a major poet of striking originality.

This selection, chosen from the award-winning Oxford Authors critical edition, includes all his major English poems and most of the larger fragments. The poems are supported with extensive notes and a useful introduction to Hopkins''s life and poetry.

Woman : Plant : Language


I will not diefor any monolithic country playing its anthem to the deadTime is my country,it counts my inhalations,a merciless teacher untying my hair Part lullaby, part insurrection, Agata Maslowska’s dazzling poetry is powered by the drive to understand life at its deepest level, pre-human and beyond borders. To explode language, grasping what we can know in our bones and roots, and to live according to that knowing. Lyrically sublime, playfully provocative, the poems in Woman : Plant : Language disrupt form to challenge rampant authority, layering the lived experiences of womanhood, migration and war between the ripple of bryophytes, the songs of the soil, the fading call of endangered species. Maslowska’s work is myceliumesque, linking arms with Etel Adnan, Jane Hirshfield, Nan Shepherd, Anna Tsing and more, to flourish within a crystalline network of thinkers. An unforgettable debut, calling us back to the unspeakable world. “Astounding: powerfully fragile, strongly precarious, harmoniously raging, ultimately tender. Speculative stories are hinted at, in a voice so musical that we would follow it anywhere. It takes us into the garden, to a lighthouse, through nuclear holocaust. Poems probe the thick facts of plant life (figs, wasps, pollen), and our human entanglement. Ordered to flourish in a 'hostile environment', this poet peels apart our perverse systems. A personal heritage of European war, migration, and music translates into lullaby and confrontation. There is a forest of allusions—Jane Hirshfield and Etel Adnan, among others—including an Edwin Morgan-esque sonic nonsense investigation that sounds the soil of the seabed, and of a nuclear plant. A book in the best traditions of yearning, warning, mischief, and hope.” Anthony Vahni Capildeo“Woman : Plant : Language by Agata Maslowska finds uncanny intersections between the things that continue to grow in these fallow end times. Viewing the world from the soil up, these poems are deeply attuned to the movements of nature, people and ideas—from the fruitful and fricative collisions of new and old languages, to the legacy of European war and displacement. Musical, allusive, and always formally subversive, these are poems of precise philosophical enquiry that make the reader see this tired old world afresh.” Jessica Traynor

Interní procesy


Popluješ na vlnách okamžiků prozření, okusíš přínos stavu čirého bytí, zažiješ spočinutí nad tématem života, smrti i chvil plných lidské blaženosti. Budeš přemýšlet, chutnat a nazírat svět optikou bohéma a na moment ucítíš, jaké to je, žít pro pomíjivost okamžiku. Budeš se usmívat, možná ronit slzy, vizualizovat, ale především přemýšlet.

Singing Over Bones


Singing Over Bones is a fierce and tender debut reckoning with what remains after loss. Drawing from the folkloric tradition of La Loba—the wolf woman who resurrects life by singing over bones—Amy Singh excavates fragments of being from the shattered silence of intimate violence to the thundering chorus of street protest, from ancestral wounds to future hope, and borders that cut through both lands and hearts. Moving fluidly between English, Hindi, and Panjabi, these poems map love and resistance across generations and geographies.

Rhapsody Road


From the quotidian to the ineffable sadness of whiling ‘springtime away on false lights, deep wine and fickle friends’; a lament for autumn with its falling flowers; memories of things that have never happened; and a startling take on Michelangelo’s ‘Creation’, there is little that escapes the poet’s vision. With its biting wit and a singular understanding of the ephemeral nature of life’s experiences, beautifully illustrated by the author, Rhapsody Road is a collection that you will find yourself dipping into time and again.

Haiku nadnes


„Haiku vyznáva len jeden čas. Všetko, čo sa v ňom deje, sa deje dnes. Vzniká ilúzia, že je možné čosi pravdivo a okamžite zachytiť, aby sme si v tej istej chvíli uvedomili pravý opak, že esencia prítomnosti nám vlastne uniká. Kočalková pozoruje toto magické Dnes. Zachytáva ho vizuálne presne a esteticky pútavo. Ona sama je však dôsledne mimo záber. Zrkadlí sa len za výberom zvolených slov, ktoré možno čítať i podvojne – napríklad ich farebnú symboliku či jemný náznak personifikácie objektov z prírody. Opismi končiacich súmrakov, dní a ročných období vnáša do haiku nádych smútku, ale i úžasu nad ľudským životom zároveň." Eva Urbanová Šimková

Délutáni éjszaka


,,A téren át mentem tegnap haza, / fölöttem sárga lombok vízesése, / de lent már árnyékot vetett a térre / az ősz, a délutáni éjszaka" - olvassuk Rakovszky Zsuzsa egyik őszi-téli szonettjében. A szerző számára otthonos határvidéken járunk több szempontból is: a már és a még, a nappal és az éjszaka, a nyár és az ősz, az ősz és a tél, az álom és az ébrenlét kettőssége tagolja a formailag is gazdag kötetet. A szabadversek és a szonettek, a monológok és a párbeszédek létezésünk ismerős pillanatainak és helyzeteinek mutatják meg ismeretlen - hol félelmetes, hol fenséges - oldalát: ,,S hiába, hogy már jártam sokszor ott / nem ismerem: az álmok másik ország, / s az emlékét valami vámosok / az ébrenlét határán elkobozzák."

The Door-to-Door Poet


A madcap literary mission across England‘A book that knocks on doors of language, of possibility, of love and of humanity. Open your door and let this book in ... it’s as though the angel of poetry has written a knock knock joke that finds its way to your heart’ Ian McMillanWhat do you think would happen if you knocked on a stranger’s door and offered to write a poem for the? owan McCabe wanted to find out. In doing so, he became the world’s first Door-to-Door Poet. He banged on people’s doors and asked what was important to them. He then went away and wrote a poem about it, free of charge, which he brought back and performed on their doorstep. Emboldened to find that nobody punched him in the face, he set out on a tour of England, knocking on the doors of Moss Side in Manchester, Jaywick in Essex, the remote island of Lundy and many places in between. This is the story of his adventures. Writing with warmth, honesty and humour, McCabe shines a light on a range of communities as he explores what is important to us today. The Door-to-Door Poet is a joyful and thoughtful portrayal of one very unusual mission and the many and varied voices that make up a nation.

Collected Verse


''The wind is rising!... Let us try to live!''One of the preeminent intellectuals of modern French culture, Valéry is widely considered one of the country''s greatest poets of the twentieth century. Following a flurry of sonnets in his late teens, he abruptly abandoned verse for twenty years. If the publication of The Young Fate in 1917 won him immediate and immense acclaim, his status as the outstanding poet of the era was firmly consolidated with the Album of Early Verse and Charms with its beautiful meditation on mortality, ''The Graveyard by the Sea'', considered one of the finest poems in French. A classical voice in an era of avant-garde modernism, Valéry''s often sensuous work was inspired by mysticism, myth, the Mediterranean, and above all passionate love. This bilingual edition brings together for the first time the complete verse with many unknown and previously unpublished poems taken from his abundant correspondence, which offers intimate insight into a private side of the writer.
