Juan Felipe Herrera, the first Latino Poet Laureate of the United States and son of Mexican immigrants, grew up in the migrant fields of California. Exuberant and socially engaged, reflective and healing, this collection of new work from the nation's first Latino Poet Laureate is brimming with the wide-open vision and hard-won wisdom of a poet whose life and creative arc have spanned chasms of culture in an endless crossing, dreaming and back again.

Penned by one of Nichol’s numerous literary collaborators, this account reveals the close connections among the writer’s various activities, particularly how the autobiographical inquiries and Freudian dream theory linked with the young poet’s biographical self-awareness. The audiobook demonstrates how the subject’s main psychoanalytic client was his own writing, following Nichol as he explored its slips, accidental puns, and "unintended" meanings and implications for the communal future of the human species - both in high literature and comical prime time television.

The prolific writings of Kahlil Gibran, author of The Prophet, continue to inspire a devoted international following and have transformed modern Arabic literature. In this volume of early writings, Gibran’s simple yet lyrical style crosses from prose to poetry and yields insight into his dedication and inner vision of beauty, including the tale of a strange hermit in “The Tempest”, the discovery of love lost to war in “The Mermaids”, and the long voyage of sea and soul in the prose poem “Between Night and Morn”.

Kahlil Gibran wrote prolifically and passionately in Arabic as well as English. First published in 1965 with nine works of poetry translated by Joseph Sheban, Mirrors of the Soul includes writings by Gibran that are as poignant today as when first written, such as “The New Frontier” and “The Sea.” These poems illuminate the dual nature of Gibran, who lived in the shadows both of New York skyscrapers and the cedars of his childhood Lebanon.

Kahlil Gibran reveals his vision of the soul and understanding of the world - past, present, and future - in this rich sampling of more than 20 works. Prose tales, fables, and poems evoke the mystic East and form a world at once powerful, tender, joyous, and melancholy. This collection, penned when Gibran was still a young writer, reveals many of the themes and styles plumbed throughout his life.

A rich and varied collection of contemporary short stories, extracts from novels, and poetry that will go a long way toward informing the English-speaking world of the latest developments in Iranian literature. This sampling - or to use the Farsi term golchine, a bouquet - provides a window onto an important but sorely neglected segment of world culture. We hope it will also serve to awaken further interest in the work and in translations of Iranian novelists and poets.

“Il libro della follia” è la prima traduzione integrale in italiano di "The Book of Folly", che Anne Sexton diede alle stampe nel 1972. Lo stile confessionale che aveva reso celebre l’autrice, fruttandole nel 1967 il premio Pulitzer, giunge qui alla piena maturità trasformandosi nell’allegoria di un Gran Teatro psichedelico. La Signora Benestante che scrive occasionalmente versi rispettando le forme metriche lascia il posto, definitivamente e consapevolmente, al personaggio della Poetessa Martire della società benpensante e all’aspirante suicida, in un rovesciamento parodico dei valori patriarcali.

Un uomo scrive lettere al suo amore. E appunti, riflessioni, scoperte. Lei ballerina, lui poeta, condividono un destino, entrambi conoscono la ricerca del ritmo, l'equilibrio nel gesto, la tensione verso la libertà e l'arte come ubbidienza. Un libro composto quasi in trance, un viaggio nella bellezza che incontra pensieri di coreografi, storie tra danza e poesia, riflessioni di filosofi, visioni. Un libro mai scritto prima d'ora sulla danza e la poesia: due arti da sempre sorelle. Ritmo e parole. Aver corpo, in un'epoca che ha fatto del corpo un segno di molti disagi.

La maledizione del fico raccontata nei Vangeli di Marco e di Matteo è, insieme all'uccisione dei porci, uno dei rari miracoli che si risolvono con effetti negativi. Ma se la morte dei porci precipitati da un crepaccio libera un indemoniato, la maledizione del fico non porta alcun vantaggio. Gesù è a Betania, si sveglia affamato e si mette a cercare i frutti tra le foglie di un fico rigoglioso. Non trovandone, lo condanna alla sterilità eterna. Al di là dell'apparente insensatezza, che significato teologico dobbiamo dare a questa maledizione? Che mistero nasconde?

द्रौपदी महाभारत ही नहीं, भारतीय जीवन तथा संस्कृति का एक अत्यन्त विलक्षण और महत्वपूर्ण चिरत्र है-परन्तु साहित्य ने अब तक उसे प्रायः छुआ नहीं था।

Following in the footsteps of such category killers as Milk and Honey and Whiskey Words & a Shovel I, Fariha Róisín's poetry book is a collection of her thoughts as a young, queer, Muslim femme navigating the difficulties of her intersectionality. Simultaneously, this compilation unpacks the contentious relationship that exists between Róisín and her mother, her platonic and romantic heartbreaks, and the cognitive dissonance felt as a result of being so divided among her broad spectrum of identities.

Poetry. Even all by themselves, the titles of Patricia Lockwood's poems reveal the sort of surreal, enigmatic, rhetorically- longated world her sensibility inhabits effortlessly.

Andrew Motion's prose memoir, In the Blood (2006), was widely acclaimed, praised as 'an act of magical retrieval' (Daily Telegraph) and 'a hymn to familial love' (Independent). Now, 12 years later and three years after moving to live and work in the United States, Motion looks back once more to re-create a stunning biographical sequel - but this time in verse. Essex Clay rekindles, expands and gives a tragic resonance to subjects that have haunted the poet throughout his writing life.

Depois de anos afastado da Poesia, Carpinejar retorna ao gênero que o revelou. Em Todas as Mulheres, o autor se coloca no próprio enterro e, da perspectiva do morto, disseca seus relacionamentos e recorda as mulheres de sua vida.

Tre le sezioni di questo testo, in cui la prima si fa antefatto delle due successive: "Quel mio ritornare a te / da tutte le strade / per sottrarci da tanta morte". Fra le pagine una mappatura dell'anima che è luogo e memoria - "Ti tengo / nell'entroterra dell'anima / in un respiro di due sillabe", la vita come frattura in fiore su un muro: "la conseguenza del mattino / uno schianto in due tempi", e ovunque il frammento dell'esperienza restituito in trama: "nulla sappiamo della mano / che ci regge il giorno / a tremare / fra la memoria e la sete".

The Old English epic poem Beowulf, recorded in its original Saxon dialect for the first time. Performed by Icelandic poet, playwright, professional storyteller and performer Svanur Thorkelsson, Audible’s production gives listeners the opportunity to experience how it might have felt to hear bards recite sections of the 3000-line poem from memory in Anglo Saxon dining halls. Audible’s Beowulf recaptures the heroic style and vast scale of what can be considered ‘England’s first native audiobook’.

Em Biografia de uma árvore , Fabrício Carpinejar se permite a contorção de ser vegetal para se experimentar em outra dimensão, fora do humano. Em Terceira sede, já se permitira a contorção cronológica de se projetar no tempo e se experimentar tão velho quanto o futuro de si mesmo. Mas para além dessas metamorfoses, o que sua obra sobretudo quer é ousar a mais ousada de todas as experiências, a da linguagem. Não apenas a praticada como estética, tão frequentemente oca de sementes.

Um audiolivro sem título, sem prefácio, sem abas de apresentação, sem fiadores, sem notas biográficas sobre o autor, sem adornos: só poemas falando diretamente com o ouvinte, só com o essencial da vida.

O poema "Há metafísica bastante em não pensar em nada" foi escrito por Fernando Pessoa e assinado por seu heterônimo, Alberto Caeiro. Pessoa foi um renomado escritor português, e o heterônimo de Caeiro é conhecido por sua recusa filosófica e grande apreço pela natureza. Neste poema o ouvinte poderá se entranhar nos questionamentos de Pessoa em relação à existência das coisas e ao próprio ato de pensar.

By any measure, Gary Snyder is one of the greatest poets in America in the last century. From his first book of poems to his latest collection of essays, his work and his example, standing between Tu Fu and Thoreau, has been influential all over the world. Riprap, his first book of poems, was published in Japan in 1959 by Origin Press, and it is the 50th anniversary of that groundbreaking book that is celebrated with this new edition.
