Xiphoid Process
ISBN: 9781487001865 / Angielski / Miękka / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Nine years (ahem...) in the making, award-winning Kevin Connolly's new collection extends its author's investigation of identity, authority, intention, and authenticity. What is a public poetry? In an age of tweets and trolls, what should it even try to be? Through revision, redaction, ventriloquism, homage, self-sabotage, and outright plunder, the poems in Connolly's Xiphoid Process interrogate the alleged futility and alleged insight of mid-life. Are we who we are simply because we'd otherwise be nothing? Or are we (more hopefully) something parked, for a time, in time, trying...

A new church they built on the land they stole from us." These opening lines begin the verbal adventure of Sun and Moon. Written in Oaxaca, Mexico, between 1995 and 1999, the poems tell some of the tales of the voiceless, of the conquered, of the displaced, of the survivors, of the people who eat and sleep in the streets of Oaxaca, spinning their myths and legends and recalling their oral histories and memories. Sun and Moon traces the relationships between two civilizations, the indigenous and the conquerors, from the first...

The Empress of Ireland collided with a Norwegian collier whose bows had been strengthened for ice-breaking abut six miles off shore from Ste. Luce in the early hours of the morning of the 29th of May, 1914. Approximately 15 minutes lapsed between the moment of impact (1:55 am) and the moment the ship caught fire and sank (2:10 am).

The words of the Empress of Ireland are not my words. They could never be my words....

"Beneath my balcony, the handy man tumble-dries a tv advertisement in the washing machine of his song sparrow throat. An old man now, I dream of white rabbits, running down tunnels, far from the hunter's hands. The alarm clock shuffles its pack of sleeping hours: a clicking of claws, needles knitting outwards towards death's guillotine while the sharp beaks of roosters dig for the dawn." At the Edge of Obsidian is the second book in The Oaxacan Trilogy. It was first published in 2005 and outlines the events of a single day in the City of Oaxaca (Mexico). I have always loved the Liturgical...

ISBN: 9781552453360 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. What do you get when you cross Lao Tzu and an application for a university teaching gig? What do you get when you give W. G. Sebald and Clarice Lispector the ability to speak from the afterlife? What happens if a girl is stopped at a red light for an entire year? In on the Great Joke is a palace of hybridity, where film structure informs poetry, poetry alters the essay, the essay recalibrates the joke. Broadbent has lent her ear to the dead, the living, the voiceless, to give us the punchline of what it means to be intellectually alive. Laura Broadbent is the author of...
