For Lindsay Macgregor, language is landscape, and in these beautifully observed encounters with the natural world, she restores to us a past we thought lost. Her poems have the music and rhythmic energy of waves, and displalyl an extraordinary breadth of knowledge, whether of Scottish history, paleontology, bird behaviour, art or the word hoard. All kinds of language are taken out, shaken up, and arrive fresh and sparkling: ironic, humorous, formally daring, her poems awaken, scald and entrance, but are always deeply serious: she commands us to "search / for the meaning of loss in the lichen, soft shifts / in the ptarmigan''s compass, the angle of cavities." Macgretor uses all the tools language affords, and more, to let us feel the paradigm shift in these seemingly small events. (Anna Crowe)

More than Virgil, Shreffler sings of arms and the man - arms that multiply our wildest dreams and set them loose; murder in the age of mechanical reproduction. This satire is a. Powerful reminder that the twentieth century isn''t done with us yet.

Beth and Holly Chandler are two sisters who couldn''t be more different. Beth quiet, reflective. Holly forthright, outgoing, utterly unconventional. Or are they so different? As they travel together on a journey futher and further away from the city they reflect on the shared childhood secrets that keep them close. And new secrets begin to reveal themselves - secrets which will come to change their lives forever. This is a story which gently and then powerfully unfolds complex layers of affection and ultimately love.

''Curriculum Violette'' is poet and biographer Robert Crawford''s commemoration of Violette Szabo (1921-45), the remarkable French-born British agent who fought alongside members of the Resistance in wartime France and who died at Ravensbr├╝ck concentration camp. Published to mark the centenary of her birth, ''Curriculum Violette'' uses familiar forms - most obviously that of the CV - to present Violette Szabo''s multifaceted life in England, France, Scotland, and Germany. Pithily and arrestingly, it sums up a life whose insistent humanity shines through the timetabled, mechanical systems of military and civilian life, and even through the bureaucracy of death.''The work is published in English/French parallel text.

This is a book on reckless writing and careful reading, on invention and recognition. It's about how people find meaning and how we pass it on or lose it. The political expectations that drive it are inherited from religion; it tracks the chiliastic, digital divide between quality and quantity in the decades between the fall of the Berlin Wall and the receivership of democracy, venturing well beyond the author's stamping ground in poetry and translation, into philosophy, into linguistic and arithmetical pattern recognition, and into the merits and pitfalls of machine code as an aid to conversation. Mathematics and physics are admired from a distance, over the wall of algebra.
