Translations from the Flesh
ISBN: 9780822962342 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

Tropical Depressions
ISBN: 9780877452010 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 100 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Robert Frost's ovenbird question was, "What to make of a diminished thing?" This new volume of poetry by Elton Glaser answers that question on a personal level, by broadening the sense of loss and exile until it envelops our common concerns of the twentieth century: the loss of love, faith, civility all the old verities diminished and distorted. While the first two sections of the book raise exuberant laments for the domestic, artistic, amatory, and religious life, the third section of poems moves beyond complaint to celebration. The complainer, purged of his grievances, leaves behind a... Robert Frost's ovenbird question was, "What to make of a diminished thing?"
