Sinossi

Some Imagist Poets, 1916: An Annual Anthology encapsulates the dynamic and transformative energy of the Imagist movement, a pivotal shift in early 20th-century poetry. This curated anthology gathers a tapestry of works that emphasize clarity of expression, precision of imagery, and economy of language. Among its standout pieces, readers will find profound reflections on nature, love, and struggle, each rendered in a vivid, concentrated poetic style. The collection acts as a kaleidoscope of modernist innovation, presenting a rich diversity in both theme and technique that is emblematic of the Imagist poets' radical departure from traditional poetic forms. The anthology showcases the collaborative spirit and collective ingenuity of its contributing authors, notable figures in the Imagist movement including Amy Lowell, John Gould Fletcher, Richard Aldington, H. D., F. S. Flint, and the enigmatic D. H. Lawrence. These poets, transcending national boundaries, come together under the umbrella of Imagism to challenge and redefine literary aesthetics. Their contributions not only align with but also propel the modernist movement, providing a harmonious yet diverse dialogue amongst their varied experiential and cultural backgrounds, thereby advancing themes central to the modernist ethos: innovation, fragmentation, and a deep engagement with the contemporary world. By delving into Some Imagist Poets, 1916, readers are offered a unique opportunity to explore the multiplicity of perspectives inherent in the Imagist tradition. This anthology provides an enriching exploration of modernist themes and styles, making it an invaluable resource for understanding the landscape of early 20th-century poetry and its enduring impact on literary history. It invites scholars and poetry enthusiasts alike to immerse themselves in the educational richness and nuanced insights of each poem, reflecting on the persisting dialogue between these pioneering voices of Imagism.

    A Bigfoot Bestiary and Other...

    A Bigfoot Bestiary and Other Wonders is a compendium of natural and unnatural astonishment, anatomizing all those big, hairy monsters that haunt the human condition. Follow their footprints through these pages, and Martin Achatz may just make you a believer in the greatest mystery of all: Love with a capital "L". 
    "Martin Achatz knows what it is to be big and hairy and to express the animal inside us. To paraphrase the Zen koan, live as if you were already Bigfoot. If Iowa Poet Laureate Marvin Bell has his Dead Man poems, Michigan's Achatz has rendered poetical the great ape of the Northwoods, and he eloquently and determinedly immerses us in the dream, meanwhile paying homage to Robert Frost, Pablo Neruda, Wallace Stevens, Flannery O'Connor, and all the other wonderful monsters." --Bonnie Jo Campbell, author of The Waters and American Salvage 
    "Martin Achatz reimagines the legendary Bigfoot in his newest book, a funny and moving collection of poems that is playfully serious. Achatz melds cryptozoologic wonder with the heartrending stuff of the everyday world ... a fierce Sasquatch howl that illuminates and reveals the fragile state of our collective humanity." --W. Todd Kaneko, author of This Is How the Bone Sings 
    "I believe Martin Achatz intended these pages to impart joy (and other wonders) to those who read with an open paintbox at the ready, its colors so pure they demand that monster landscapes be captured and dimensioned within the nether worlds of dreams and the genius of second readings. A 5-star book without doubt." -- Sue Harrison, international bestselling author of The Midwife's Touch 
    Author of The Mysteries of the Rosary and a former U.P. Poet Laureate, Martin Achatz lives in Ishpeming, Michigan with his family. In his spare time, he chases comets and Bigfoot.

    Notes from a Shipwreck, the third collection of poetry by Jessica Mookherjee, is a richly detailed and illuminating voyage of dislocation and longing. By turns evocative, unsettling, and full of 'small acts of magic', Mookherjee simultaneously finds the past, present, and future in the tempestuous, lyrical tides that flow through her poems.
    Here, seafaring lore and shanties interweave with wreckage and survival, drawn by strong currents of history – where migration, colonialism, pandemics and climate change shape the course we are on. The sea is a territory of grief and transformation, alluring and dangerous, where safe harbours and landfall are not always certain. Mookherjee's enchanting, salt-sharp poetry encompasses the many journeys embarked on – whether seeking refuge, escape, or into exile – and consider not only the deep blue sea and its myriad mythologies, but to understand 'what makes a land and person,' – the keen human instinct to seek belonging.

    Ilya Kaminsky's astonishing parable in poems asks us, What is silence? 
     
     
     
    Deaf Republic opens in an occupied country in a time of political unrest. When soldiers breaking up a protest kill a deaf boy, Petya, the gunshot becomes the last thing the citizens hear—they all have gone deaf, and their dissent becomes coordinated by sign language. The story follows the private lives of townspeople encircled by public violence: a newly married couple, Alfonso and Sonya, expecting a child; the brash Momma Galya, instigating the insurgency from her puppet theater; and Galya's girls, heroically teaching signing by day and by night luring soldiers one by one to their deaths behind the curtain. At once a love story, an elegy, and an urgent plea, Ilya Kaminsky's long-awaited Deaf Republic confronts our time's vicious atrocities and our collective silence in the face of them.

    ‘Bracing’ is a full collection of poems, mostly about contemporary life, experienced richly, intensely, unsentimentally and with humour. The writing is humane and accessible, wearing its intelligence lightly. There is something for everyone in ‘Bracing’, even for those who were put off poetry at school. This is a mature, well-rounded piece of work. The subject matter ranges across modern life and beyond - childhood, parenthood, love, lust, loss, shopping, animals (and our connection to them), climate change, the complexities of the human heart and of relationships, spirituality, food, suffragettes, the status of women, homesickness, grief, illness, ageing, dementia, fear, the joy in small things. All the poems are underpinned by a keen eye, a sharp wit and a total absence of self-pity. Simone is a safe pair of hands, writing in an unshowy style, a poet who manages to be heartfelt, humorous and accomplished.
