Paperback. Condizione: New. One Turn Around The Sun is a panorama of poems that attempt to define the twilight during which a person becomes caretaker of parents and begins to grind against that old saying, "Life is too short". The book also studies the intricacies of being a self, a particular personality shaped by forces seen…and unseen, both knowable and not. At times, the various voices might be considered characters that agree and sustain one perspective. In other cases, contending sensibilities imply an underlying argument. This is especially true of the book within the book, which is entitled "The Hilt".Several questions drive this collection, the most central being how can a person stay sane when so often socio-political circumstances mock all efforts to create a liveable world. This is a book intended to bolster an ongoing engagement with life at a time when running away is a great temptation.

Paperback. Condizione: New. David Lazar extends the language of prose poetry, mixing the classical and the high modern, the song and dance man and the Odyssean. Nothing, he finds, is as far apart as we think, except for the chaos and order, innocence and experience. Lazar's voice is a sacred last resort: something's gotta give.T…he voice in these poems is semi-autobiographical and performative: masked yet emotionally raw. Each poem draws on the features of modernist poetry, using an arch, cadenced sentence as its primary unit, but drawing on the Iliad, Odyssey, and other classical myths as part of its internal cosmos.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Chromatic bears as its epigraph the philosopher Baruch Spinoza's assertion that "Desire is the very nature or essence of every single individual". The three sequences of poems in Chromatic test that claim. Each borrows its title: "Remarks on Color" from Ludwig Wittgenstein, "Eighteen Maniacs" from Duk…e Ellington, and "The Well-Tempered Clavier" from J. S. Bach. Exploiting those predecessors, the poems in Chromatic explore the full range of effects caused by human desire, from ecstasy to despair.

The young female narrator is seduced by an older man who convinces her that she is the perfect subject for his photographs. Meanwhile, the narrator's sister embarks on… an equally precarious journey. Never clearly delineating the border between art and pornography, the narrator's escalating disquiet is evidence that lines have been crossed.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Legible Heavens explores what the most intimate forms of experience reveal about our most cosmic concerns, and vice versa. Its four sequences act like compass points to orient a human landscape. On one axis, "Star Chart for the Rainy Season" laments love lost, appealing to the biblical assertion that…"love is stronger than death, and passion more cruel". in contrast to "Material Implication," which celebrates love found, in sonnets of desire insistently "glowing against the dusk". On the other axis, "All the One-Eyed Boys in Town" treats love as perdition, the speaker imagining his life as "a match scratched down your wingbones", in contrast to "Synopsis," which treats love as salvation, reinscribing the biblical gospels (canonical and apocryphal alike) to "solicit a miracle I must not expect".

This collection explores the Black psyche, body, and soul, through inversion and brazen confrontation of work that has shaped Western civilisation. In a poetic range… of forms, voices, and rhythms, the reader is bathed in ancestral memory, myth, and sense of the timeless of the shapeshifting, resilient Black body.

It logs one exp…lorer's journey into the incompletely mapped region between prose and poetry, the territory, as H.L. Hix himself identifies it, "between speaking and singing, elenchus and jive".

Paperback. Condizione: New. It is late 1948 and days before his wife is to give birth for the first time, Ghassan is approached by two talking jackals threatening that, if he doesn't paint the signs of the newly named villages and towns, his wife will give birth to a goat. Thus begins the exile to Gaza of Ghassan and his goat.In… the mode of Borges, Calvino and Coetzee, In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees presents linked mytho-poetic tales delving beneath the long Palestinian diaspora; the history of Gaza is told as never before: through the eyes of a night guardian of a talking goat; a carrier pigeon that befriends a young boy who sells photos of martyrs; a refugee who eats books and then recites them word for word; a Palestinian father who sneaks animals into Gaza through a labyrinth of tunnels; a talking sheep who is caged in the Gaza Zoo.These mystical voices echo in the mind of an American stranger as he witnesses the beauty and horror of this ancient, suffering land. In the Cemetery of the Orange Trees is a disquieting allegory of the clash between the powerful and the silenced.

Paperback. Condizione: New. H L Hix's Incident Light explores a life that became "instantly mythical" after a startling revelation. The artist Petra Soesemann learned at age forty-nine that the dad who had raised her from birth was not her biological father. Her dad had died some years before - her father was still alive. Her da…d, like her mother, was a blue-eyed German blond; her father was Turkish, with dark eyes and dark hair like Petra's own.Incident Light is a biography: not an ordered account of the facts of a life, but an invitation into the dad's devotion, the mother's passion, the father's honour, and especially into the daughter's own embracing of her experience, newly understood. It testifies to the many lives that converge on one life to lend it beauty and mystery.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In A Poetics of Hiroshima, William Heyen has broken through to face full square what has been working its way to surface through several of his highly-praised earlier books including Shoah Train (Etruscan Press, 2003): the interfusions, in art and in our desire for art, of beauty and atrocity. Heyen's… lines claw their ways into an aesthetics of formful but obscene sound that may now be our century's only viable, or possible, home.
