English
Description
Come-Hither Honeycomb is the eclectic fifth book of poems from the visionary mind of Erin Belieu. Whether it's the relatable humiliation of the doctor's office morphing into a meditation on mortality, a scathing condemnation of abuse provoked by the image of a fifteenth-century woodcut, or a villanelle evoking the tension of hostage situation, Belieu finds inspiration far and wide, casting her sardonic gaze on the world. In what is her most personal...

En Piedra en :U: las palabras de la poeta venezolana María Auxiliadora Álvarez se rebelan contra el silencio y el abatimiento, invitándonos a una experiencia de poesía límite, en la que las resonancias sensoriales, las sugerencias rítmicas, los símbolos engarzados y las analogías desconcertantes se convierten en armas arrojadizas contra el vacío y traman el relato que nos configura: los ecos más atávicos de nuestro ser, una inquietud tal...

Danielle Vogel's newest collection creates a latticework for repair-the repairing of past trauma, the calling-into-presence of a dissociated self-but does so while keeping the material of this net of thinking in a fragmented, diaphanous state, glowing in the space between the poem and essay. Across three sections of "displacements," "miniatures," and "volume," Vogel initiates readers into the séance of the book; she asks the reader to hold vigil...

Emmelie Prophète fait partie des générations de femmes auteures haïtiennes contemporaines comme Yanick Lahens, Kettly Mars, Evelyne Trouillot, Edwidge Danticat.
Extrait de la préface:
«J'ai rencontré les poèmes dans la voix et, dans les yeux de gens qui grignotent chaque jour le malheur, la solitude. Ils sont à eux. C'est grâce à ces souffles que la poésie demeure, transforme le quotidien et donne raison à ces effleurements, ces interprétations...

The second collection of poetry from award-winning author Jean Gill retains the passion and spiky humour for which she is known, but this has matured into a unique, assured view of our world. Her most lyrical poems reveal a sensuality that lingers in the imagination.
'I would not give my eyes to tune pianos but for one brightened night to read the raised points of your skin with blind man's fingers I might.'

Este es un libro formado por textos de una intimidad trazada en el donaire de la ruptura, textos que a veces han sido arrancados a jirones de esa piel que ha vivido entre las mareas y las tormentas. La voz que aquí se expresa intenta crear un puente, ensaya una traducción y ofrece una interpretación que solo es válida para aquellos que entren en consonancia y resuenen por la orilla de la playa con algunas líneas de estos cantos.

1537) Goest

English
Description
Treating subjects from landscape to sculpture to a 19th century technical encyclopedia, the poet is fascinated with light, glass, mirrors, flame, ice, mercury-things transparent, evanescent, impossible to grasp. Likewise Swensen's lyrics, which, with elliptical phrasing and play between visual and aural, change the act of seeing-and reading-offering glimpses of the spirit (or ghost) that enters a poem where the rational process breaks down.

Ever written a letter you never sent? Words you've never said but wanted to? That's what you're about to read in The Lifetime Between. Every word, every page, is a note, a letter, a thought to someone specific-a friend, a lover, an ex-lover, a family member, the author herself. Words left unsaid. Words held back in fear. Words that didn't come until it was too late. Words of hurt, of anger, of love, of hope, of strength. Words of truth-which sometimes...
