Other Wild
This outstanding second collection explores the lives of errant women and creatures who refuse to adhere to official paths, and the liminal, boundary-crossing wildscapes of the land and heart.These tender, lyrical, daring poems learn from the natural world, through immersion and observation, to find new ways to reflect and adapt, as they celebrate the ways our beings and bodies are inextricably entangled with the ever-changing landscapes and heartscapes of the dark woods, glittering rivers, windswept moors and towering mountains.
Moon Base One
When poet Jemma L. King learned that her unborn son faced life- threatening conditions, her world unravelled. In his first fragile months, she turned to poetry to make sense of the impossible, asking: what happens before we begin, and what happens when we meet our most significant ending? panning centuries and continents, this breathtaking collection moves through time and space - from the icefields of Antarctica to the Salem Witch Trials, from ancient Greek myths to the neon-drenched visions of Warhol and McQueen. King's verse travels to the stars and back, interrogating the boundaries of existence, the fragility of life, and the fierce power of motherhood. With exquisite lyricism and unflinching insight, this collection is a meditation on survival, rebirth, and the ever-unfolding mystery of what it means to be alive. A cosmic, deeply personal journey that pulses with wonder, it reminds us that even in our darkest moments, we remain part of something vast, luminous, and filled with possibility.

Breakfast with the Scavengers
A Welsh poet based in Mexico, his poems about Mexico capture the magic and vibrancy of a country Andre Breton once described as 'the mostsurrealist in the world.' Other poems pay homage to Welsh cult heroes John Cale and Adrian Street, and Ben's plucky ancestor, Rebecca Howells, who emigrated to Patagonia after her husband was killed in a mining explosion at Blaengwawr Colliery. At once funny, tender, and beautifully bizarre, Breakfast with the Scavengers explores love, loss, loneliness, our never-ending quest for connection, and those blink-and-you-miss-them moments of transcendence that can light up our lives.
Graveyards On Other Planets
In his sophomore collection, Roberto Pastore hones in on an era of constant flux, violence and grief, offering a kind of bewildered solace with a misfit voice that feels truly renewed. 'I attend the reunion/of myself. Swapping out lime water for chamomile tea./ Comb-over days in which we refuse to accept what is lost.' In poems that are self-reflexive and elegiac, yet full of flashes of the unexpected, we are invited to look tenderly and unflinchingly at our own mysterious experience of living, our own 'sad heartsong'. Here are poems that feel both intimate and timely, yet somehow beamed in from another planet, far, far away.

Sculling
In her unflinching and tenderly obsessive collection, Sculling, poet Sophie Dumont explores a deeply personal relationship to the River Avon, as she circles the curses that unravel from a canoe club. At the age of 16, Sophie Dumont trained to be a canoe coach before her own coach and partner of three years died suddenly in an aquaplaning road accident, which led to five of his organs continuing at least seven people''s lives. His heart was donated to a young man studying in the same city as he did.Using the kayak as a vessel to traverse life''s accumulation of losses, Sculling speaks of how this bereavement caused Dumont to reflect on her relationship to bodies of water, from her own body to the state of pollution in UK rivers. Here, she explores the campaign for rivers to be given personhood status for rights to protection and inspects the symbiosis of her body and the river''s. Sculling is a powerful investigation into categories of haunting, from a body living on through donated organs, through dementia''s slow erasure, and through witnessing her niece learn object permanence - that things continue to exist when they are not visible.In this fiercely vulnerable and meticulous debut, Dumont probes the urge to call out when under a bridge, to hear oneself ricocheted back, changed:''. . . a boy in a red cap opens his throat, throws sound into shadows, as we''ve all done, in the reckless hope of its return.''
Foretokens
Unearthed in a clear-out, a picture calendar she’s kept – hoarding, I’ve learnt, is a mark of the emigrant – across continents and time.So begins Sarah Howe’s extraordinary new collection, returning to the riddle of belonging she explored in her award-winning debut, Loop of Jade. At the heart is her own mother’s clouded past: abandoned as a baby and taken in, at the turbulent dawn of Communist China, by a woman with her own hidden motives. Now a mother herself, Howe finds herself re-examining this unreliable narrative with fresh sight. Sifting through her own history, the poet asks, how can a new generation transform a shattered inheritance? And what is lost and gained in the pursuit?What unfolds is a personal Babel of voices and identities, and an examination of the contradictory legacies of colonialism, where poems – past and present – act as ‘foretokens’, omens of what lies ahead. A central spine of poems takes the molecular structure of DNA as its template: a ‘ladder of atoms beginning to twist’, down which the poet steps into the darkness of time. Objects of witness resurface to tell their own stories: fragile porcelains of past centuries transiting across continents; a picture calendar of old postcards from another world.‘From the other side of ruin / we found safe passage’, Howe writes in these spectacular poems of emotional heft and quickening wit, their voice salvaged from the fragments of a former self. Foretokens is a monumental work of survival and creation, turning over what is left behind as it strikes out towards astonishing new vistas.

Of all the great classical love poets, Propertius (c. 50-10 BC) is surely one of those with most immediate appeal for readers today. His helpless infatuation for the sinister figure of his mistress Cynthia forms the main subject of his poetry and is analysed with a tormented but witty grandeur in all its changing moods, from ecstasy to suicidal despair.

The Flowers of Evil
"A new shudder. A new thrill" - Victor HugoThis striking pocket hardback edition presents Charles Baudelaire''s classic poetry collection, The Flowers of Evil, featuring silver cover embossing and gilded page-edges.Charles Baudelaire was one of the most influential French writers of the 19th century, whose darkly beautiful poetry never failed to leave a lasting mark on his readers.

Flowers of Evil, or ''Les Fleurs du mal'', is perhaps his most celebrated collection, which addresses themes of love, decadence, and death. Though many of these poems were banned in his lifetime, their lyrical beauty and penetrating themes have ensured their enduring success.This edition includes curated selection of the poems from the 1861 publication, with translations from Cyril Scott, Lewis Piaget Shanks, Frank Pearce Sturm, Jack Collings Squire and James Elroy Flecker. This is elegantly presented with a silver embossed cover design, ivory pages, beautifully designed endpapers and silver gilded page edges, making a wonderful gift or collectible for any lover of classic poetry.ABOUT THE SERIES: Arcturus Ornate Classics are beautifully bound editions of iconic literary works across history. These compact, foil-embossed hardbacks are printed using deluxe ivory paper and make the perfect gift.
Interlocutor Goddess
“Jasmine Reid writes a shapeful, theoretical work involved in the rigorous attending to emergent selves and the languages made in calling them into being.” —aracelis girmayInterlocutor Goddess explores the creation of a trans language for selfhood within an exilic state of "ecstatic grief."Reid''s experimental work challenges societal norms, particularly the family as a political construct while reflecting on the trans experiences of a queer Black woman. The poems grapple with oppressive systems of separation and colonial legacies, rejecting extractive, empire-driven paradigms, and gender essentialism. Within her collection, Reid envisions alternative, ethical ways of being, rooted in unity and wholeness and finds kinship with the rhythms and lifeways of the natural world—soil, stars, and water. Her poetry employs a trans-lyricism, weaving together dual meanings through homonyms, homophones, and portmanteaus to create a layered, fugitive language that resists rigid classifications. At its core, Interlocutor Goddess is an act of transfiguration, a celebration of girlhood, and a reclamation of wholeness for all who exist beyond imposed boundaries.
The Masnavi, Book Six
''Until effaced no one can actuallyEnter the Court of Holy Majesty.What is the meaning of the heavenly ascensio? on-being: the mystics'' law school and religion.''Rumi is the greatest mystic poet to have written in Persian, and The Masnavi is his masterpiece. Divided into six books and consisting of some 26,000 verses, the poem was designed to convey teachings about divine love and unity to the disciples of the Sufi order that he founded, best known today as the Whirling Dervishes. Like the earlier books, Book Six interweaves amusing stories with homilies and lyrical flights. The longest of all the six volumes at nearly 5,000 verses, its themes focus on self-annihilation in God and the oneness experienced at the end of the Sufi path by the realized mystic. Rumi is believed to have completed it shortly before his death on 17 December 1273.This is the first ever verse translation into English of the entirety of Book Six of Rumi''s Masnavi. It follows the original by presenting Rumi''s most mature mystical teachings in simple and attractive rhyming couplets.ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World''s Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around theglobe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford''s commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of othervaluable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies forfurther study, and much more.
Metafyzika
Osemstranová experimentálna kniha Metafyzika je poeticko-filozofická symfónia, prepájajú-ca pradávne archetypy a súčasné technologické vízie. Východiskom je svetlo – ako fyzikálny jav, duchovný symbol a brána medzi vonkajším a vnútorným svetom.
Kniha spája koncepty Anima Mundi (duše sveta), Musica Universalis (harmónie sfér), Unio Mystica (mystického zjednotenia) a hviezdy Sírius – pradávneho svetelného majáka, s té-mami transhumanizmu a umelej inteligencie. V tomto prepletení mytologického a techno-logického sa otvára priestor pre skúmanie hraníc vedomia, identity a duchovnej evolúcie človeka.
Metafyzika nie je kniha v bežnom zmysle slova – je to svetelný portál, výzva k introspekcii a zároveň vízia budúcnosti, kde sa mystérium a algoritmus stávajú súčasťou jedného univerza.
Expresívnu maľbu inšpirovanú hudobnými a literárnymi postupmi vytvoril Edo Šelestiak.
Dear Diaspora
Dear Diaspora is an unapologetic reckoning with history, memory, and grief. Parting the weeds on a small American town, this collection sheds light on the intersections of girlhood and diaspora. The poems introduce us to Suzi: ripping her leg hairs out with duct tape, praying for ecstasy during Sunday mass, dreaming up a language for buried familial trauma and discovering that such a language may not exist. Through a collage of lyric, documentary, and epistolary poems, we follow Suzi as she untangles intergenerational grief and her father’s disappearance while climbing trees to stare at the color green and wishing that she wore Lucy Liu’s freckles.Winner of the Raz/Shumaker Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Poetry, Dear Diaspora scrutinizes our turning away from the trauma of our past and our complicity in its erasure. Suzi, caught between enjoying a rundown American adolescence and living with the inheritances of war, attempts to unravel her own inherited grief as she explores the multiplicities of identity and selfhood against the backdrop of the Vietnamese diaspora. In its deliberate interweaving of voices, Dear Diaspora explores Suzi’s journey while bringing to light other incarnations of the refugee experience.
Vdychovanie škorice
Básnická zbierka Patrície Gabrišovej Vdychovanie škorice prináša poéziu ľudskej skúsenosti a reflexie, v ktorej sa všetko pod¬statné predostiera nasýtenou obraznosťou a zároveň úsporným básnickým jazykom. Tematickou dominantou knihy je svet žien, vní-maný ako aktuálna a prirodzene osobná vec, rovnako však aj ako nadčasová a nadosobná rodová skúsenosť. Človek je chápaný ako nositeľ historickej a kultúrnej pamäti, ktorá siaha až do obdobia mýtov, rozprávok, orákul a proroctiev a ich stopy si človek preniesol aj do moderných čias ako svoje novodobé rituály. Pozostatky sú naďalej viditeľné v tom, ako prežívame lásku, hnev a strach, ako odpúšťame sebe či iným, ako túžime a potrebujeme patriť k niekomu, k rodine alebo rodu. Básnická zbierka je autentickým skúmaním miesta človeka vo všetkých medziľudských vzťahoch, s osobitným zreteľom na roly, ktoré svet očakáva od žien a pri ktorých hrozí zvýšené riziko straty samej seba.
Liebestod
Básnická kniha slovinského spisovateľa Miklavža Komelja Liebestod prevracia zaužívané predstavy o smrti a v kontexte európskej literatúry nového milénia predstavuje jeden z najprekvapujúcejších literárnych projektov, v ktorej je fenomén smrti preskúmaný z netradičných a až protirečivých aspektov. Smrť tu nie je zachytená ako posledná vec v životnom príbehu človeka, ale stupňovanie intenzity života. I keď sa v knihe sleduje viacero cieľov, tým najpodstatnejším sa javí oslobodenie človeka od paralyzujúceho stavu pri interakcii so smrťou. Hoci má hĺbkový ponor v knihe podobu osobnej cesty, vďaka obrazovému a jazykovému potenciálu poézie ide nielen o sugestívnu, ale tiež prenosnú skúsenosť. Preložila Diana Pungeršič.
