Here, the many permutations of lyric explore slippage and fusion, of singular to multiple, personal to social, sentience to what seeks beyond the sensate world, of both our crisis and choral communion that is, and is always more than voice reveals |
Through exploring various disasters, Clarke ends up exploring memory-"the worst disaster since the last one"-writing about people lost through the prison system, disasters man-made we don't wish to think about, and just where the accumulation of disaster upon disaster might end up taking us.
Some would call Neptune Park a graphic novel-minus the pictures. Mumblecore, infidel pamphlet, lazy cento, its archive harbors a voice that sounds real enough-a verbal tranny-culled from the unhoused parley of shame (and its sisters), suburban squats, queer idylls, and teenage millionaires.
Transfer of Qualities addresses the uncanny and myriad ways in which people and things, but also people and those around them, exchange qualities with one another, moving in on, unsettling: altering stance, attitude, mood, gesture.
Michelle Taransky's second collection of poems, Sorry Was In The Woods is that landscape where perspective is not singular, where waiting, worrying, watching, and recording are able to both arrange and derange our understanding of place.
The poems in Lynn Xu's striking debut collection, Debts & Lessons, travel under the power of history's illusory engine and echo its ululations of love, violence, and lament.
To Be Read in the Dark casts its strobe of radical vision on the dark crises of our common experience.
Kelli Anne Noftle's poems reside in this space of "threshold consciousness" where a voice speaks to and from the other, hovering inside a liminal world of strange admissions and abstract silences.
Zach Savich's The Man Who Lost His Head wrestles with the irrational rationality of life as we dimly perceive it.
Includes poem that assess culture at large and expose the constellating force of historical, biblical, and social influences on the human community.
Maps the interior of our deepest feelings and fears through reflections on money, commerce, and the capitalist machine.
An assortment of poems that investigates subject matters such as possession and dominance as well as the destruction wreaked upon the planet's natural and social environments. It includes poems that examine both the savage and the beautiful aspects of existence.
Examining the African American position in the United States, this philosophical collection of poems offers insight into the personal, social, cultural, and racial networks that help to create identity. It is a venture that illuminates the human mind and the struggle faced when trying to communicate what we see and what we believe.
Offering 12 years of incisive writing about contentiously debated topics in modern poetry, this work features essays, interviews, and reflections that focus on two central themes - the changing nature of beauty in the lyric and the necessity of finding new ways to embody spirituality.
Contains poems which reach back to find where humans hold ideas and emotions: in the archives of their hearts and minds.
Features poems that discuss the ethics of interpersonal relations, the social identity's conflicted relationship to self discovery, and the family bounds that function as a frame that both supports and limits potential.
Using Shakespeare's sonnets, this book shows how the involuntary expression of language is suffused with cultural intent, how much the rhythms of the past permeate the present - and how many lost friends, lovers, and opportunities can be heard in the music of the current moment.
Our Animal hybridizes novel flaking into poetic forms like a gnat swarm, magnetic filings, or migratory flux. It's a fierce inquiry into Othering, tracking Kafka's life through his identification with animals, especially those hunted or outcast. We are entangled in biography as biology-paradisiacal transfiguration that leaves out no being.
In Zach Savich's new collection, intent seeing makes the present more present. The mysteries of grief and joy, of daily desire and loss, resonate fleetingly, a bell struck delicately, struck again. In these poems, language is a sense like any other and yet is everything that may be glimpsed and heard and briefly known.
A meditation on the body amidst a crisis of environment, "Middle Time" imagines the limits (or non-limits) of bodies at a time when our attachments and our ecologies are increasingly administered, exploited, and degraded.
The Unfollowing is a sequence of elegies, mourning public and personal loss. The poems are composed entirely of non sequiturs, demonstrating a refusal to follow aesthetic proprieties, and a rejection of the logic of mortality and capitalism.
A science writer and now poet's lyrical analysis of parasites and the animals they subsist in
a text of constantly refracting mirrors providing us with insights beyond mere duality. These deft, inquisitive poems portray two Adams as external characters in an ever-shifting mythos while examining the inner double personae locked in self-confrontation.
Selected by Kate Bernheimer as winner of the 2014 Omnidawn Fabulist Fiction Contest
