Skice


Fero (František) Malec, novinár, textár, scenárista, humorista a kabaretiér, sa po úspechu historickopublicistickej knihy Vraždy a popravy pod Inovcom prihlásil s knihou básní Skice. Názov naznačuje, že autor nevytvára zložito štruktúrované „veľké plátna“, abstraktné obrazy náročné na dešifrovanie zakódovaných a zašifrovaných významov. Jeho prevažne intímna lyrika je čitateľsky príťažlivá, básne sú obrázky tvorené akoby jedným ťahom ceruzky, pera či štetca, záznamy chvíľ, aké prežíva väčšina z nás. A práve táto ľahkosť, podporená znalosťou práce so slovom, a spevnosť mnohých básní, definujú hodnotu knižky pre čitateľov viacerých generácií, ktorí chcú, aby čítanie bolo pre nich zážitkom. Ten umocňujú ilustrácie Jozefa Doda Bausa. Ilustrácie: Jozef Dodo Baus Grafický dizajn: Ľubomír Zabadal

Songs for Later


Mick Evans is a writer who takes risks. Never content to remain static, the voice is increasingly explorative, increasingly nuanced and possessed of a compassion that is also clear-sighted. The feel for language, the lyrical pulse, the acuteness of observation and the range and depth of references are signature features of Mick Evans'' work. But with each new collection the reach is extended. There are poems here that unsettle or warn, that celebrate or remember, that surprise and delight, poems that make us laugh or wonder… and always there is love — not sentiment, not nostalgia, but permeable, authentic, love in all its shades of grief and joy.

Toldi - Toldi estéje - Buda halála


Arany János elbeszélő költeménye 1846-ban született a Kisfaludy Társaság pályázatára, amely kifejezetten "népies formájú" költői beszélyt várt egy, a "nép ajkán élő" történeti hősről. A mű végül elnyerte a pályadíjat, és a következő évben könyvként is megjelent, országos ismertséget hozva alkotójának. Főhőse Toldi Miklós, a paraszti sorból felemelkedő, kivételes erejű ifjú, akinek alakjában a népmondai hagyomány és a nemzeti eposz hőseszménye találkozik. A Toldi tizenkét énekben, népies hangütéssel idézi meg a 14. századi Magyarország légkörét és egy legendás hős felemelkedését Nagy Lajos király korában. A Toldi sikere és hatása a később trilógiává bővülő sorozatban teljesedett ki: a három mű (Toldi, Toldi estéje, Toldi szerelme) együtt rajzolja ki a hős teljes pályáját.

a grammar of the world


A slim, emotionally and thematically rich book of poetry, a grammar of the world is Jeanne Benameur''s second book published in English by Les Fugitives, offering a more personal look into the author''s own history and writing practice. For Benameur, the Egyptian goddess Isis is a sister who advances with her along the seashore. Like her, poetry responds to life''s call where the blue of the sky mingles with the blue of the sea. She is unity rediscovered. Drawing on subjects as diverse as the author''s childhood traumatic flight from the Algerian War of Independence in the late 1950s, the modern migrant crisis, the transformative power of writing and the long history of the Mediterranean, a grammar of the world is brought into harmony by the central mythological figure, who personifies a careful reknitting of the world and repairing of ancient wounds through the act of writing.

Good, Occasionally Rhyming


A collection of selected poetry and writing about The Shipping Forecast on the 100th anniversary of the first BBC Broadcast.And now, the Shipping Forecast issued by the Met Office…Often described as a litany, mantra or lullaby, the Shipping Forecast has long been a favourite of cosy homes on chilly evenings. Its practical use as a precise reading of the marine weather around the British Isles has been largely forgotten by its recreational listeners, who instead value its gentle rhythm and curious wording as a comfort, a charm, or fail-safe formula for inducing sleep.Its thirty-one areas, cast like a safety net, take us on a virtual voyage that starts between the Shetlands and Norway, zig-zags down the North Sea, scoots westwards along the English Channel, sailing by the coast of France, Spain and Portugal, via both sides of Ireland up to the west coast of Scotland and as far as the nearest shard of Iceland. … Forties, Dogger, German Bight, Humber, Thames, Dover, Wight… These words speak to us like a spell, nonsensical in their substance, but enchanting in their delivery.Since its first BBC broadcast in 1925, the Shipping Forecast has captured the nation’s heart. Good, Occasionally Rhyming is a love letter in poetry and prose, from Britain''s literary landscape to this iconic radio broadcast.…That’s the end of this shipping bulletin.

A név fehér foltjai


Az irodalom történetét minden bizonnyal lehetetlen megírni az álnevek története nélkül. Az álnév és névtelenség jelensége behálózza az irodalom minden korszakát, izgalmas és összetett mintázatokat kialakítva. Antológiánk a Bázis Egyesület tagjainak álneves költészetéből állt össze, és a kortárs magyar irodalom egy szűk szeletét képviseli. Azonban még ebben is – mint cseppben a tenger – megmutatkozik az álnevesség rengeteg lehetősége, és egyúttal szépsége, izgalma.

Zvierací manžel


Akú podobu a intenzitu by mohlo mať manželstvo človeka a zvieraťa? Aké situácie by nastolilo, aké najskrytejšie pocity, túžby a predstavy by odhalilo? A aká rola by v tomto vzťahu pripadala človeku a aká zvieraťu? Oceňovaná básnická zbierka Zoltána Németha Zvierací manžel vtipne i vážne, naturalisticky i poeticky sprítomňuje osem netradičných manželstiev, do ktorých básnický subjekt vstupuje s ôsmimi predstaviteľkami živočíšnej ríše. Tieto manželstvá pritom nie sú náhodné ani samoúčelné, ich cieľom nie je šokovať viac, ako je to nevyhnutné: podnecujú čitateľa k úvahám o krehkom pute medzi človekom a prírodou i vzťahu človeka k sebe samému; posilňujú jeho predstavivosť a schopnosť pozorovať z bezprostrednej blízkosti to, čo bez zveličenia možno nazvať veľkým príbehom života.

Sign & Breath


Sign & Breath is a new critical anthology that takes a different approach to exploring these questions: What is poetry? What defines voic? eaturing a range of contemporary artists, many of whom work across different mediums and genres, Sign & Breath introduces the reader to one page that sings in any genre - prose, fiction, poetry, spoken word, hybrid forms, and song - across diverse traditions. Rather than define poetry as a genre with conventions, traditions, codes, and modalities, this book features poetry as a faculty that thrums in all written and spoken art. Readers are introduced to a text followed by a discussion with the author about creating the piece, ties to creative lineage, and the definition of voice through their practice. This anthology contributes to the dialogue among genres which will reframe understanding of poetry as an aesthetic experience of language. With one page that sings in any genre, Sign & Breath presents a new, inclusive perspective on poetry while two questions remain: Do we have a clearer understanding of what defines poetry? Do we have a clearer understanding of voice?

Hálózati organizmusok


Ha a szépirodalmi szövegre mint nem autonóm, hanem egy komplex hálózat részeként működő jelenségre tekintünk, akkor az irodalmiság olyan, eddig főként elszigetelten működtetett jelenségei kerülnek hirtelen új megvilágításba, mint a hatás, az intertextualitás, a kanonizáció, a transz kulturalitás, a siker, a nyelvhasználat, a csoportképződés, a rendszerszerűség, az adaptáció, a műfordítás, az értelmezés, újraértelmezés és újraírás stb. A Hálózati organizmusok olyan verseket tartalmaz, amelyek erőteljesen teszik nyilvánvalóvá a szöveg hálózatépítő technikáit, a beágyazottság lehetőségeit, s az ezekben manifesztálódó dialogikus viszonyokat. A különféle kapcsolatok szintjeinek, erősségének, oda-vissza játékának ezek a mozgásai az irodalmiság újfajta esztétikájára is felhívják a figyelmet, a hálózatos olvasás szépségeire.

Resting Bitch Face


Resting Bitch Face is a book for women, for Black women, for lovers of art and film criticism, and for writers interested in work that finds a middle ground between poetry and prose. Taylor Byas uses some of our most common ways of ''watching'' throughout history (painting, films, sculpture, and photographs) to explore how these mediums shape Black female subjectivity. From the examination of artwork by Picasso, Gauguin, Sally Mann, and Nan Goldin, Byas displays her mastery of the poetic form by engaging in intimate and inventive writing. Fluctuating between watcher and watched, the speaker of these poems uses mirrors and reflections to flip the script and talk back to histories of art, text, photography, relationships, and men. From Polaroids to gesso primer to sculpture, Byas creates a world in which the artist calls out and the muse responds. For not only does she enter the world of the long-revered classic artist, but she also infuses her poems with such iconic pop-culture works as The Joker, WandaVision, and Last Tango in Paris. Ultimately, while watching lies at the crux of this collection''s poetic concerns, the goal of the speaker is to query her own self, rendering these poems as invitations for readers to question their own.

Transfigurations


For over half a century, Jay Wright's poetry has been celebrated for its alertness to the multiplicity of human experience and identity. Wright's inexorable lyric voice, whose gravitational pull has an 'indelible music', transforms life into myth, body into spirit, image into icon, and ritual into collective consciousness. Revelling in the rich interplay between Native American, African American, Latin American, European and West African cultural forms, Wright detangles the threads of these complex historical forces to present a tapestry of the Atlantic World and the people who move within it. Published for the first time in the UK, Transfigurations is the definitive volume that includes all of Wright's 20th century poetry works - The Homecoming Singer (1971), Soothsayers and Omens (1976), Explications/Interpretations (1984), Dimensions of History (1976), The Double Invention of Komo (1980), Elaine's Book (1988), Boleros (1991), Transformations (1997). Transfigurations is a singular opportunity for readers to fully immerse themselves in the sublime imagination of one of the most profound, generous and innovative American poets of all time.
