Red Owl: Poems
ISBN: 9780393041361 / Angielski / Miękka / 86 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book introduces to the Norton imprint a new poet with a strong original voice. Robert Morgan writes out of the central tradition of American poetry. His lyrics, rooted though they are in the specifics of the everyday--in earth and leaves, lakes and stones--reach through and beyond these to transcendence, to mystery; they intertwine animate and inanimate, inner and outer, idea and object. As David Kalstone puts it, Morgan is "faithful to the natural facts and yet so aware of the mysterious instincts which allow us in the first place to see, hear, observe such facts."

Virgil's Machines: Poems
ISBN: 9780393042672 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Under the immediate surface of Joel Sloman's poems a ferocious intelligence is asking hard questions. Although very young, only twenty-two, he is an accomplished craftsman, managing very long lines with complete aplomb. His short lines are never merely short-winded. His work has its own peculiar and engaging music; its tonal structure-so often neglected in phanopoeic poetry-is subtle and haunting.

Emily's Bread: Poems
ISBN: 9780393301502 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What is the daily bread of women? In these splendid poems, Sandra Gilbert imagines spiritual regeneration through the tradition pioneered by the two Emilys--Emily Dickinson and Emily Bronte--who are her emblematic foremothers.

The "loved walls" might fall, some "animal goddess in her skull" might destroy what is cherished along with what is oppressive.

ISBN: 9780393306965 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Isn't this what every lyric poem wishes to be, the poet asks as she explored autobiographical events, most from childhood and the cusp of adolescence, and then turns to the shadowy areas of regret and memory. The word as talisman is another of her concerns, and finally, in the section that most typifies the lilt of grace notes, Dove considers the embellishments below the melody of daily life.
