Blessings and Inclemencies: Poems
ISBN: 9780807132586 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Wrested from the coppery, keen claws of existential extremity, Blessings and Inclemencies, Constance Merritt's second collection of poems, is conventional in its forms and radical in its reaching back to the ground of being and to the originality and immediacy of our first encounters with language.

Two Rooms: Poems
ISBN: 9780807135198 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

Blind Girl Grunt: The Selected Blues Lyrics and Other Poems
ISBN: 9780997914917 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 78 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. These poems are brilliant and dangerous. The opening poem, "Invisible Woman, Dancing," is the best protest poem of the decade. The speaker attends a party full of casual, good-intentioned racists and ableists. The ending of the poem is explosive. Constance Merritt shows incredible range - erotic poems to a wayward lover; blues lyrics so rhythmic I can nearly hear the guitar; and devotional poems that offer "this, you know, is love, is all, the end." Blind Girl Grunt is a major work by a major poet.
