Paperback. Zustand: Good. In Sharon Wang?s thrilling and corporeal geometry, touch dominates, if often in its ?aftermarks?: singes, whiffs, folds of fabric, echoing gestures between bodies. With generous language and quicksilver intelligence, Wang expresses ?a hunger so large it stops the mouth.? Her poems describe what is ?hard and brilliant,? the spaces between objects, and what?s left in the wake of losses. ?Despite its attunement both to elegy and to witness, the mode is praise: ?He loved the world. He loved it suddenly / and without reason.? . . . As the poet works to understand, ?If in fact it wasn?t possible to build / the world anew,? she does build??extravagantly, judiciously, lovingly. The result is a book of radiant integrity.? ? from the judges? citation for the Kundiman Poetry Prize. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Kristin Bock's potent and undeniably original voice sings through this award-winning first collection. Enticing readers with transcendental pastorals, her spare wordplay is tinged with gothic imagery yet laced with an easy innocence. These are poems that enlighten and arouse, assuring us that if nothing on Earth may be taken at face value, neither may anything be taken for granted or lost.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. domina Un/blued dislocates the traditional slave narrative, placing the slave?s utterance within the map and chronicle of conquest. Charting a diaspora of the human spirit as well as a diaspora of an individual body, Ruth Ellen Kocher?s award-winning new book reaches beyond the story of historical involuntary servitude to explore enslavements of devotion and desire, which in extremity slide into addiction and carnal bondage.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Dujie Tahat's Salat is a book of poems written in a compelling new form of the poet's own invention that participate, fully -- they praise, weep, spit, beg, laugh, choke, sing. In this murderous age it is increasingly unconscionable to be inert, in one's living or in one's art. Tahat tells us: There's a river in heaven, and I am the star that belongs to it. Salat is boisterously, resoundingly alive.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Winner of the Tupelo Press / Crazyhorse First Book PrizeThe Forest of Sure Things is a layered sequence of poems set in a remote, historic village at the tip of a peninsula on the Northwest Coast, near where Lewis and Clark encountered the Pacific. A pair of newlywed drifters has arrived and settled there, starting the town?s first new family in a hundred years. When their second child is stillborn, the bereft family unravels and un-roots themselves. Megan Snyder-Camp?s poems reveal ? like the shoreline exposed by a neap tide ? an emotional landscape pressed upon and buckling under the complications of grief and the difficulties of language.With hypnotic, incantatory phrasing and imagery and an innovative approach to chronology, Snyder-Camp tells the story of the grieving couple, then dramatizes the impact of this enigmatic story on her imagination, her artistic practice, and her own new beginnings in married life and parenthood.Based in part upon a brief, true story she was told, Snyder-Camp?s mysterious yet uncommonly compelling poetic sequence will draw the reader as if along a current pulling through the book. Acknowledging the importance of Anne Carson?s Autobiography of Red and Italo Calvino?s Invisible Cities, Snyder-Camp has spoken of her fascination with where language frays, as we try and use ?story? to create what we remember and see where we are. What happens in a place, or a family, or a body, when time catches, or stops.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. We're the D'Artigo sisters: Half-human, half-Faerie, we are savvy - and sexy - operatives for the Otherworld Intelligence Agency. But our mixed-blood heritage short-circuits our talents at all the wrong times. My sister Camille is a wicked-good witch whose magic is as unpredictable as the weather. My sister Delilah transforms into a tabby cat when she's under stress. And me? I'm Menolly, acrobat-extraordinaire-turned-vampire. And I'd give my right fang to make my sire pay for killing me. That is, if he doesn't find me first. All over Seattle, humans have been going missing, only to turn up as newborn vampires - the sure sign of a rogue vamp on the loose. It looks like Dredge is to blame - the same sadistic Dredge who gave me my scars and who may well be in cahoots with the demon Shadow Wing. If so, Otherworld and Earth are screwed. The only way we can hope to defeat Dredge is for me to travel home to Otherworld and face my own demons. For unless I sever the ties that bind me to Dredge, all hell is going to break loose.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. The Nail in the Tree meditates on crucial subjects in devastating circumstances, exploring how childhood can be violent and generative, how trauma integrates in art and daily life, and what the artist's role is. In this part memoir, part art-historical treatise, Carol Ann Davis narrates her experience of raising two sons in Sandy Hook, Connecticut, on the day of and during the aftermath of the shooting there. She describes revelations her children come to in the weeks that follow, quietly echoes the words of a principal on that day, and recounts painful series of texts and calls to further and further distant family members. She writes in beautiful, devastating, poetic language.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Rajiv Mohabir uses his queer and mixed-caste identities as grace notes to charm alienation into silence. Mohabir's inheritance of myths, folk tales, and multilingual translations make a palimpsest of histories that bleed into one another. A descendant of indentureship survivors, the poet-narrator creates an allegorical chronicle of dislocations and relocations, linking India, Guyana, Trinidad, New York, Orlando, Toronto, and Honolulu, combining the amplitude of mythology with direct witness and sensual reckoning, all the while seeking joy in testimony.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Goblets of gin, fans of feathers, war-bombed bricks, loaves of bread, soot, smoke, and paper money--such are the tangible things that touched the lives of women who worked as wage laborers during an era of Europe of cabaret and hyperinflation. The crises of modernity and capital, as well as the human experiences of women and who loved, lost, and fought against the structures of privilege that all the while aided them during a fraught stretch of time between wars, come alive in City Scattered, a chapbook of poems that invite us to experience and examine the conditions of labor that echo those of our current day.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Provocative from the opening lines, this is a treasure trove of love, loss, humor, and self-discovery amidst the trees and cabins of the Adirondack Mountains:Somewhere around the age of 40, when I should have been deciding if I wanted to take my last chance at having a second child, should have been looking for a good job? I began instead to learn everything I could about staying out all night in the woods. Since I live in Manhattan, this pursuit could hardly be construed as even marginally relevant to my real life.Think Gretal Ehrlich and Annie Dillard. But this work is both more personal and more universal. Think Barbara Kingsolver?s Prodigal Summer for sensitivity to the natural world and narrative sweep.This book stands out from other tales of the land: it is about the romance and primitive majesty of the wilderness, how it shelters and awes us, terrifies us, and ultimately provides us with a sense of place. Here is exquisitely detailed narration balanced with sharp insights into modern life in the wilderness.?Bibi Wein offers a lovely and penetrating look into the thickets of the Adirondack woods and of the human heart.? ?Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature?The Way Home is a beautifully written, deeply spiritual and disarmingly honest meditation on nature?that found in the glorious out-of-doors as well as that of the infinitely less elegant (and far more exasperating) human being. Think of it as modern-day Walden?a way to sit in an armchair and experience the soul-stirring revelations that are offered when one learns to keep quiet and let the land speak.? ?Elizabeth Berg, author of The Art of Mending.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Poetry. Art. Improvising on the tropes of classic pulp fiction, including genres like crime noir, horror, sci-fi, superhero, espionage, and vigilante, Tony Barnstone's audacious new poems are counterpointed by the mischievous (and blood-splattered) ink drawings of Iranian artist Amin Mansouri. At times reinventing the sonnet tradition, Barnstone's linked sequences evoke serial-format comics and cinema, as each series breaks into discrete frames propelled by action. The ancient gods and epics have been high-jacked by animations and video games, but pulp remains unconquerable ghastly, shameless, outrageous and fun.…
