Supply Chain

de Pimone Triplett

23,85€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

de Sarah V. Schweig

26,43€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 There are worlds we can imagine, but we live in this one: contingent and absurd. In her first full-length collection, Sarah V.

Congotronic

de Shane Book

24,51€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 At once original, strange, funny, and unnerving, Shane Book's Congotronic takes the reader into unstable territory, where multiple layers of voice, diction, and music collide. Some of these poems have the sparse directness of a kind of bleak prayer; others mingle the earthbound rhythms of hip-hop with the will-to-transcendence of high Romanticism.

Trickster

de Potts Randall Potts

24,51€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Trickster opens with a crank call to the reader: "How was I to know / You were thin, your garden / Was covered in smoke / That you sat in your house / Coughing?" Over the course of these beautiful and eerily accomplished poems, Potts's reader is taken on a journey that is at once time-scarred and resolutely contemporary, earthy and haunted, moving from estrangement to reconciliation. Amidst a deepening sense of crisis, the Trickster of Potts's imagination emerges as aggressor, prankster, victim, and healer, forging resilient music from the afflictions of the mind's "infested nest."Trickster veers quickly from meditation and narrative to song, plunging the reader into a liminal world of dreams, archaic lyrics, and fables, populated with figures ranging from the Hawk and Worm, the Cat and Dove, to Cold and Death. It is a wilderness in which all things are alive: "a blade of grass / equal to the suffering / of a lifetime." Yet it is also a place of menace, "where a fly with one wing, keeps / tipping over in the grass, where / the ants will have him." Whether or not the Trickster reaches utopia, he reckons with the world that is achievable on earth and in words, "those dreams of woods / relayed to you."

Lost And

de Jeff Griffin

26,50€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div> <div>Ever since he was a child sitting in the back of his parents'' car, Jeff Griffin has been taking explorative journeys into the desert. In 2007, as an art student, he started wandering the back roads of the Mojave Desert with the purpose of looking for a place to reflect in the harshly beautiful surroundings. What he found were widely scattered postmodern ruins—abandoned trailers and campers and improvised structures—whose vanished occupants had left behind, in their trash, an archaeological record of astonishing richness and poignancy.<br></div> <div><i>Lost and</i> is both a chronicle of Griffin’s obsessive journeying and a portal into a world of dispossessed people and enduring desires. Comprised entirely of unaltered reproductions of extraordinary found materials—drawings, charts, questionnaires, compulsively detailed letters, legal documents, jottings, journal entries, stunningly vivid and mysterious photographs—this is a work of sociological and literary daring that defies categorization. Part documentary history, part literary adventure, part mystical detective story, Griffin’s immersion in extremity has yielded wrenching annals of the modes and manners in which lost people inscribe their psychic, sexual, religious, and economic yearnings.<br></div> <div>At the core of the work is a collection of poems, mostly handwritten and composed without pretense to literary sophistication, that give direct expression to the abiding impulse to tap language’s transformative potential. Assembled with deep regard for the dignity of its collective group of anonymous authors, <i>Lost and</i> is a book of profound conceptual originality—an engrossing, shocking, and tender work of art that strives to awaken voices from the wilderness of the inexpressible.</div> </div>

Ascension Theory

de Christopher Bolin

23,85€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div> <div>"This meditation," writes Christopher Bolin in <i>Ascension Theory</i>,"is about appearing without motes between us: / it is practice for presenting oneself to God." Bolin’s stark and masterful debut collection records a deeply moving attempt to restore poetry to the possibilities of redemptive action. The physical and emotional landscapes of these poems, rendered with clear-eyed precision, are beyond the reaches of protection and consolation: tundra, frozen sea, barren woodlands, skies littered with satellite trash, fields marked by abandoned, makeshift shrines, sick rooms, vacant reaches that provide "nodes / in every direction // for sensing // the second coming."</div> <div><br> Bolin’s eye and mind are acutely tuned to the edges of broken objects and vistas, to the mysterious remnants out of which meaningful speech might be reconstituted. These poems unfold in a world of beautiful, crystalline absence, one that is nearly depopulated, as though encountered in the aftermath of an unnamed violence to the land and to the soul.</div> <div><br> In poems of prodigious elegance and anxious control, Bolin evokes influences as various as Robert Frost, James Wright, Robert Hass, George Oppen, and Robert Creeley, while fashioning his own original and urgent idiom, one that both theorizes and tests the prospects of imaginative ascension, and finds "new locutions for referencing / sky."</div> </div>

On Tact, & The Made Up World

de Michele Glazer

22,53€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 <div> <p>Michele Glazer’s poems take on questions of being and value, exploring not just <i>what</i> is, but <i>how</i> it is. The poems trouble borders<b>—</b>between self and other, old and young, sick and well, stranger and intimate; between physical states in processes of decay; and between line and phrase, sentence and interruption, prose and poem<b>,</b> resisting the desire for something irrefutable with an abiding skepticism. </p> <p> The poems are drawn to missteps in perception and in language, those fractures that promise to crack open a surface to yield some other, greater meaning: "What is looked at is changed / what is looked for is gone." From this collision of passion and severity come poems that are strange and darkly beautiful.</p> </div>

Life Of A Hunter

de Robinson Michelle Robinson

21,20€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Part detective novel, part cinematic saga, part street-smart narrative, the poems in The Life of a Hunter form a document of expedition that couples individual discovery with communal transformation. Michelle Robinson's characters are consigned to particular mechanisms of survival to various forms of physical and psychological evolutions--as a reaction to their search for an acceptable spiritual condition. The multiple identities of her pressured characters are susceptible to physical transformations that provide "a brief jolt of anesthesia, / instead of the cold tenderness of interruption." Robinson uses the culture of film and fiction as an analogy for the world just out of reach and the world already at hand; preoccupied with what precision "sounds like," the figures in her poems respond to the possibility of future change as well as the fact that change is a constant in their lives. "Don't misunderstand. It was the most cynical year of our era / and anything would have been better than to have been asked / to find something beautiful." Robinson's is a strong young voice, detached and observant yet disturbingly present.
