Paperback. Condizione: New. Sharon Hashimoto reconstructs a collective memory, conjuring the voices of grandparents, children, soldiers, and " those left to tell." In moving detail, these poems convey the realities of assimilation, service, and internment as experienced by Japanese Americans during, and in the decades following,… the Second World War. In this stunning collection, Hashimoto reckons with the limitations of language, and by extension, notions of citizenship. She deftly sounds the dissonances in the language of loyalty and allegiance.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In this astounding second collection, poet Ioanna Carlsen presents us with visions of breath, both ecstatic and mundane- at once spoken, quoted, and listened for- examining the air shared by all. It is breathing that connects us, the poet knows, and she crosses dimensional and existential bounds to pr…ove this connection.

Paperback. Condizione: New. " Silently / pulling for itself, / the will wants the body to // give it what it wants," Sexton writes in " Between the Car and the Sea," at once a description of a car' s body propelling her onward, and of the poet herself, the one behind the wheel of this masterful fourth collection. In an extraordi…nary act of volition, the author does not stop at the trope of ambition, but powers instead toward the urgent concerns of the will, and intention. In Drive, Sexton explores our most fragile points of connection- to lovers and family, to the living and the dead, and to oneself, one' s own life' s work- with the care and wisdom of one who knows these roads. In her hands, these delicate boundaries become navigable. They are both her route and her destination.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In Perdido, Elaine Terranova' s seventh collection, the poet ponders the predicament of loss- " I want the dead but I am beside / the living." But for Terranova, perdido does not mean loss merely. Like the music from which she borrows her term, these poems bound with resilience.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Dennis Hinrichsen's This Is Where I Live I Have Nowhere Else to Go is a formally adventurous, cinematic collection of poems about everything at once- father, mother, family, the brutality of American history, the Pulse nightclub shooting, Alzheimer's- all seen through the successive lenses of science,… music, language, arcane history, photography and film. These poems are meditations, brief quests for somewhere to stand in the tumultuous world. "Provision / us / a mercy," the poet writes, "more steadfast / // more transcendent // than this child's breath.

Paperback. Condizione: New. An Amiable Reception for the Acrobat, Jon Davis's sixth full-length collection of poems, is jarring and beautiful, and in both cases necessarily so.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Karen Whalley' s second book is a compelling account of domestic fragmentation, isolation, and loss. At its core are twin wounds- the death of a father and the end of a marriage- and the struggle to define oneself in the ensuing absences. At the same time, these poems are teeming with lucid vitality a…nd life, from the frail perfections of butterfly wings to the strangeness of an elk in traffic. Both quiet and profound, spiritual and searching, Whalley' s transcendent collection bravely questions the nature of self, and finds joy- a kind of answer- in the most unexpected of places.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Jon Davis' s latest book of poems, Improbable Creatures, is bursting with signature inventiveness and the nimble lyricism that David Foster Wallace once praised as " off-the-charts terrific." Like the characters of a new alphabet, Davis' s creatures form the language of this stunning collection. And f…rom them emerge new meanings for words we only thought we knew- for plumage, for song, for nest. Some of his creatures vault from the page, playful proxies for his surprising insights. Others encrypt the poems with a supernatural intensity, like " the darkness leaning its black fur against the windows." Even the ephemeral lives of insects gain sudden, transformative urgency in Davis' s hands.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In Swansdown, Donald Platt makes a study of life' s inevitable transitions, from love' s astonishing evolutions, to aging and its attendant losses. With the poem " Cloud Study" Platt brings his own mortality into view. Returning to a painting by Constable, he considers his own perspective, sitting by…the Liffey, tending an injured knee. Young mothers, lovers, and runners pass, reminding the poet of who he once was and how quickly life, like weather, shifts. " Two minutes later, // The clouds would have taken on a different cast of light and shape / just like the thunderheads / now piling up above the Liffey." Platt advises: " To approach old age, one needs a new harsher style." And yet these poems are proof of the softness that may follow life' s harshest reckonings, like the wisps of hair on his beloved brother' s head as he lies dying, " fine / as milkweed silk. / His head a split / dried pod whose seeds / wind will scatter." The poems of Swansdown point us to a " larger landscape," they are the clouds " that scud across the blue escutcheon of sky. . . Sun' s blazon through rain rampant.".

Paperback. Condizione: New. The title of Elaine Terranova's eighth collection implies a cleanse, a refresh, not unlike the kind a body undertakes in sleep. Rinse charts inner landscapes in poems that read like memories surfaced in reflection and refracted through the lens of dreams.As the poet enters sleep's " dark passage" a sy…nesthetic language emerges, in which sounds hold colors, and colors reflect sensations. " Clashing sounds splinter the air, a red bird' s worth of agitation," she writes, " that or the sharpening thorns of roses." The result is disquieting, at times dystopic, but ultimately transformative. The poems in Rinse are like prisms that we, her readers, pass through. On the other side, we are not the same.

Hardback. Condizione: New. In the poem that opens her debut collection, Susan Okie recounts an evening in the anatomy lab. Here we witness the depths of her curiosity toward her subject's inner workings. When I tugged on the flexor digitorum tendons, / her fingers partly closed and her thumb /crooked in. I seemed to see the two…of us / as if from outside, and could no longer / name the tendons. I felt my fingers / from inside her hand." What to some might feel like harrowing proximity, Okie delivers, in astonishing verse, with wonder and even intimacy. To be sure, Woman at the Crossing is the work of a seasoned practitioner.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A family in a Wyoming camp copes with gossip amid the losses caused by their sudden removal and confinement. A World War II veteran reluctantly tells his granddaughter about his time overseas. A young boy acts as a translator between his mother and her doctor, trying and failing to convey the source o…f her pain. Sharon Hashimoto traces the costs of war and internment as felt across generations of Japanese Americans in stories that are vital to our understanding of our past- and, urgently so, of our present. Stealing Home, the title of this stunning debut short story collection, is both an allusion to an American pastime and a searing condemnation of its history of forced internment.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Of the poet Keith Althaus, we like to say he's a realist who doesn't shy from abstraction and a regionalist with an eye for the universal. As John Skoyles writes, his " moral center, perfect ear and ability to summon the infinite from the everyday are in full display here in poems that show the range…and depth of his career. His New and Selected Poems is a major literary event.".
