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.

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.
