The Glimpse Traveler
ISBN: 9780253223449 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. When she joins a pair of hitchhikers on a trip to California, a young Midwestern woman embarks on a journey about memory and knowledge, beauty and realization. This true story, set in 1971, recounts a fateful, nine-day trip into the American counterculture that begins on a whim and quickly becomes a mission to unravel a tragic mystery. The narrator's path leads her to Berkeley, San Francisco, Mill Valley, Big Sur, and finally to an abandoned resort motel, now become a down-on-its-luck commune in the desert of southern Colorado. Neither a memoir about private misery, nor a shocking expose...

The Little Death of Self: Nine Essays Toward Poetry
ISBN: 9780472053476 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A volume in the Poets on Poetry series, which collects critical works by contemporary poets, gathering together the articles, interviews, and book reviews by which they have articulated the poetics of a new generation. The line between poetry (the delicate, surprising not-quite) and the essay (the emphatic so-there ) is thin, easily crossed. Both welcome a deep mulling-over, endlessly mixing image and idea and running with scissors; certainly each distrusts the notion of premise or formulaic progression. Marianne Boruch's essays in The Little Death of Self emerged by way of odd...

Cadaver, Speak
ISBN: 9781556594656 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 101 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Honored by "Library Journal" as an "Amazing Poetry Title" "Extraordinary how in a single poem from 2013 Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award winner Boruch slides 1800s London barber-surgeons and the dissection of murderers only (condemned to hell anyway) to the observation, 'Future or past, it's all we ever think about.' The first part of this sharp, surprising book captures our inescapable but slippery physicality in the world, the second the breakdown of the cadaver of a 99-year-old woman--told from her perspective, rather jauntily."--"Library Journal" "Marianne Boruch's work has the...

In this remarkable book, her fourth collection of poems, Marianne Boruch continues to explore the world around her with curiosity, wry humor, searching skepticism, and thoughtful tenderness.

Poems: New & Selected
ISBN: 9780932440952 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Marianne Boruch, one of the most thoughtful and searching of contemporary poets, here draws from her four previous collections, two of which (Moss Burning and A Stick That Breaks and Breaks) were published by Oberlin College Press, and adds a group of twenty-five new poems to make a volume that is truly impressive in its range and authority. As Stephen Behrendt has put it: "Boruch's is a poetry about making visible what would else be invisible. It is about the risks--and the satisfactions--of confronting the many layers of anxiety and intensity that define modern existence."

Grace, Fallen from
ISBN: 9780819569530 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In her wry and riveting new collection, Marianne Boruch discovers things often taken for granted and holds them up to deceptively casual light, questioning them both mercilessly and mercifully. Employing a masterly range of tone and form, Boruch makes a sometimes strange but always revealing investigation of world and self, history and memory, resistance and release. Here a woman levitates behind a door as her daughter badly bangs out Mozart. Here God is caught before the moment of creation, before knowledge, before "the invention/ of the question too, the way all/ at heart are rhetorical,...
