Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A restless, probing imagination and a music lover's ear are among the elements that drive the poems in Sligo-born Elaine Cosgrove's much anticipated debut collection, in which the poet's wide range of interests are matched only by the startling variety of her approaches. These are energeti…c, youthful poems, poems alive with fresh vision and compelling rhythm. But her achievements never descend to mere novelty, and these protean, determinedly awake poems are always wholly engaging, accurate and true.'The poems in Transmissions are swift and agile and gleefully accomplished. They will leave you dazed in a grateful way.'-- Colin Barrett'A true apprentice to the vast tradition that has gone before, yet strikingly original, her craft is sharp and these brilliant poems are offered generously to strangers 'stuck for conversation'. Cosgrove is one of the most important rising voices in Irish Poetry today.'-- Elaine FeeneyELAINE COSGROVE was born in Sligo in 1985. Her poems have been published in The Stinging Fly, The Penny Dreadful, The Bohemyth and by New Binary Press among others. Her work was selected for the anthology Best New British & Irish Poets (Eyewear Publishing, 2017), and was longlisted for the 2016 London Magazine Poetry Prize. She has an M.Phil. in Creative Writing from Trinity College, Dublin.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - From meditations on the glimpsed and the fleeting -- presences so small they 'slip through cracks in the day' -- to ruminations on some of the most pressing concerns of our time, the poems in Mark Roper's new collection play a series of variations on how we perceive and try to connect with… the 'more-than-human' world. There are poems addressed to familiar companions such as the moon, or a shadow ('your dark matter / neither life nor soul'); poems that stem from travels abroad; and poems that respond to the miniature worlds, and larger implications, of exhibits in a number of museums.Throughout, Roper's keynote alertness and subtlety of language frame and mirror his subject matter with consummate skill, allowing the reader to see, hear and sense the vital presences far beyond the margins of the page.The second half of the book addresses a serious accident in the mountains, and its long aftermath -- for which the poet's startling attention to detail and commitment to his art and craft provides both cure and consolation.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - In his fourth collection of poems, poet & physicist Iggy McGovern lets art and science intermingle in poems that range from the domestic to the ekphrastic, from the celebratory to the elaboratory. With trademark formality he runs his eye over an array of themes, some familiar, some less so…, allowing for both conversation and collision: an epistolary paean to fellow Ulsterman Seamus Heaney borrows a Latin quotation from a letter by Irish mathematician William Rowan Hamilton to William Wordsworth; the early history of the quantum revolution is mapped out in clerihew form; and Schrödinger's cat takes up the position of tour guide in the famous box. The poet's failure to write 'a real love poem' and a childhood memory of near-accidental loss of eyesight are both, somehow, science's fault. And through it all the eyes have it, narrowing, winking, weeping and (given the right conditions) dilating into Black Holes.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Hymn to the Reckless, the debut collection of poems by American-born Erin Fornoff, traces an arc from youthful adventures in the Appalachian mountains to a confrontation with life's complexities, not least in the radically transformed America of recent times.Moving between that America and… her present 'Home from Home' in Ireland, Fornoff finds a kind of consolation in community, while struggling to bridge the ever-widening gap between what is and what should be, between the world she left and the one that threatens to replace it.
