Vyletela guľa z dela


Akú galibu narobí guľa, čo preletí celou knihou? A práve dieru - na oblohe, vo vode, v Brezne či v básnikovej hlave. Presne z nej pred takmer šesťdesiatimi rokmi báseň vyletela, aby ju ilustroval práve Miroslav Cipár. "Koľko by sa toho narozprávať len o samotnej básni Diera do sveta - ako sme si vymysleli deravú knihu, ako ju Miro v jednom exemplári už aj vyhotovil, a ako sa nám nepodarilo presvedčiť vydavateľstvo, aby ju vydalo - povedali nám, že nie sú také stroje." Ľubomír Feldek (o knihe Vyletela guľa z dela z roku 1968, ktorej prvé vydanie práve držíte v rukách).

Party Time


'There was a time when we would toss peanuts to the baby monkeys in the Vincennes Zoo. It was party time. It was not forbidden to feed wild animals. We hardly had any props to dress the stage. The comings and goings of the pawnbroker were easy to follow. He who lived not in those times, knows not the true pleasures of life.'Party Time is translated from Un temps de fete (La Table Ronde, 2024). Guillaume Decourt is a double laureate of the Prix Max-Jacob and the Prix Lucette-Moreau de l'academie francaise. Spencer Matheson is a Canadian poet living in Paris.

Jugoslovenska Kinoteka


In Jugoslovenska Kinoteka, Shira Wolfe moves between cinematic poetry, dream sequences and memoir to describe a period of her life spent in Belgrade and traversing the Balkans – from Sarajevo to the Bay of Kotor, from Stara Planina to Mount Avala. Most of all, it is an ode to the Belgrade of her past and the relationships she formed there, constellating around that city and continuously reappearing elsewhere in encounters fuelled by synchronicity. In her world, cities become smells; statues can be read; and the boundaries between art and life, between self and other, are always blurred. Jugoslovenska Kinoteka will be published as a bilingual edition in English and Serbian.

The Magpie at Night


A luminous new translation of one of the greatest poets in Chinese history Li Qingzhao is justly celebrated for her place in Chinese literary history. She was a poet with a wry, unsentimental style and a rich sense of melody. Her ci - lyrics that were originally set to music - are glorious in their depth and genius, spare and arresting on the line. They evoke with rare immediacy the haunting beauty of country life during the Song dynasty; the unseen, restive labour of the poet; and Li Qingzhao's bracing take on what it means to create art as a woman in the shadow of exile, war, imprisonment, and an unwelcoming literary establishment. In Wendy Chen's splendid new translation, each poem is as sharp and fresh as the edge of a new spring leaf. These richly textured bolts of melody are masterpieces of verse, as resonant and bracing today as they were in the eleventh century; and they underscore Li Qingzhao status as a necessary and iconic literary figure.

Tíško s tebou


Fascinácia druhou bytosťou, ešte väčšmi tým, čo dokáže poskytnúť alebo spôsobiť ľúbostný cit, sprevádza človeka odnepamäti. Vinie sa aj básnickou zbierkou Tíško s tebou, neraz snová sa mení od obdivu k spontaneite až po výčitku v tragickom tóne. Hakala si nerobí ilúzie, pridobre pozná precitnutie, dokonca ironizuje známe spoločenské fenomény. Pomocou mestských, ale i prírodných kulís stvárňuje výjavy, ktoré zachádzajú aj do rodinných vzťahov a umožňujú prezradiť viac ako sama udalosť. Tváre z mladosti, vedomie, že jedno pokolenie vystrieda druhé, či potecha z vtáčieho spevu, to všetko sa premieta do vzťahu k blízkym a utvára postoj k svetu, k rodine, ktorá v ňom zaujíma kľúčové miesto.

Písně lásky (času) podle Danta


Mnohovrstevný básnický text volně odkazující ke klasickému dílu Dante Alighieriho, ve kterém se mísí moderní až experimentální poetika textu ve volném verši s tradičními formálně-literárními postupy klasické stavby verše. Text využívá bohaté výrazové prostředky s často překvapivou tematickou i jazykovou interakcí a paralelami mezi minulostí a současností. Vyznačuje se vyzrálým filozofickým pohledem, přičemž ladění textu se pohybuje v poloze imaginárně surreálné (surrealistické), do níž pronikají realistické motivy a obrazy podstatných problémů současného světa. Pro celý text je příznačné prolínání osobně-intimního a univerzálního: od intenzívně prožívané lásky k věčným tématům krásy, neukotvenosti moderního života, omezenosti lidských možností, války a utrpení, k relativizaci hodnot na pozadí rozvoje vědy a techniky. Právě tak jako u Danta se téma ryzí, věčné a nenaplnitelné lásky prolíná celým textem a jím také vrcholí.

Cipota


Chelsea Guevara''s Cipota breathes a lineage into a song-making music of ancestral memory: dirges of heartbreak and generational trauma, anthems of rage and reclamation, ballads of love and homecoming. Guevara''s voice enchants as she delves into history, ancestry, and the self-reaching for a lineage that has been battered by strife and strangled by colonialism. She moves through place and memory with deft skill and earnest humanity. Cipota examines the grief of culture lost, of a home you''ve been separated from, one that doesn''t truly feel like yours. Cipota is a beating heart that demands to be heard. You will be rapt from start to finish.

Poems & Prayers


From the Academy Award-winning actor and #1 New York Times bestselling author of Greenlights comes an inspiring, faith-filled, and often hilarious collection of personal poetry and prayers about navigating the rodeo of life and chasing down the original dream, belief. My prayers are my poems are my prayers. I've always relied on logic to make sense of myself and the world. A prescriptionist at heart, I've always looked to reason to find the rhyme, the practical to get to the mystical, the choreography to find the dance, the proof to get to the truth, and reality to get to the dream. I've been finding that tougher to do lately. It's more than hard to know what to believe in; it's hard to believe. But I don't want to quit believing, and I don't want to stop believing in . . . humanity, you, myself, our potential. I think it's time for us to flip the script on what's historically been our means of making sense, and instead open our aperture to enchantment and look to faith, belief, and dreams for our reality. Let's sing more than we might make sense, believe in more than the world can conclude, get more impressed with the wow instead of the how, let inspiration interrupt our appointments, dream our way to reality, serve some soul food to our hungry heads, put proof on the shelf for a season, and rhyme our way to reason. Forget logic, certainty, owning, or making a start-up company of it; let's go beyond what we can merely imagine, and believe, in the poetry of life.
