Talvez o poeta mais original da literatura inglesa, William Blake foi uma espécie de símbolo das manifestações socioculturais dos anos 1960 e 1970. Ao lado da psicologia de Carl Jung e Sigmund Freud,

Una visión profunda de la poética de Zurita, uno de los grandes referentes de la poesía chilena y latinoamericana contemporáneas.En 1969 Raúl Zurita empieza a escribir El sermón de la montaña, su primer poema. Deja ya patentes buena parte de sus inquietudes creativas: la reflexion sobre lo transitorio y lo efimero, la experiencia del yo y especialmente la busqueda, a traves de la poesia, de mantras contra el dolor. Todas ellas se desarrollan en Mi Dios no ve, un itinerario documental por las mas de cinco decadas que el chileno ha consagrado a la escritura.Mi Dios no ve incluye poemas, relatos autobiograficos, fragmentos de entrevistas, traducciones. Y tambien imagenes de sus intervenciones de land art, de acciones performativas sobre su propio cuerpo y de otras incursiones en el arte contemporaneo.El libro reclama, asi, el reconocimiento de Zurita no solo como gran poeta, sino como artista total.

Vida y poesía, vida y amor vida y libertad. Esta triada, que los surrealistas comulgaron entre sueno y realidad, no es sólo una bandera de acción sino una bandeja de asombro y fascinación donde se despliega la obra poetica de Jotamario Arbelaez. Asi viene alli al desnudo "el cuerpo de ella" donde las palabras hacen el amor con la poesia; viene "el profeta en su casa" recordando para recordar "la casa de memoria vienen los santos aliñados con "zen y santidad" desfilando con sandalias en la cabeza y cien pies en la tierra; viene en "paños menores" la impudicia de un "culito de rana" para ejercer "el arte de pedirlo"; viene aquello de que "nada es para siempre, viene la ofrenda de "mi reino por este mundo". Porque ya desde sus comienzos, la poesia de Jotamario es una aventura, un desafio para correr todos los riesgos.

El papel de algunas de estas poetas ha sido dar visibilidad a cuestiones que estaban a la sombra por no pertenecer al imaginario poético tradicional masculino y brindarles la universalidad que merecen: labores domesticas, familia, hijos, maternidad y feminidad, etc. Sin embargo, el tratamiento de los temas generales de esta cautivadora antologia es tambien excepcional. Desde la ironia y el cinismo, la pasion por el paisaje y los viajes, el erotismo refinado y sensorial, la melancolia y el hermetismo y la espiritualidad de lo cotidiano hasta la provocacion y la reivindicacion acompañadas de ciertos toques surrealistas. Todo un reflejo del mundo cambiante y complejo en el que vivimos y ante el que ellas reaccionan de forma proactiva: ¡escriben poesia! ¡Y nos roban el corazon!

El título alude al séptimo sello del mensaje del Apocalipsis en la Biblia, que significa el silencio, y sirve de pretexto a la autora para sumergirnos en su estimulante universo poético, donde se abordan los limites entre real e irreal, sagrado y profano, banal y absolutamente necesario, plasmado aqui con gran talento.Los poemas en prosa de Elenkova nos acercan al mundo de todos los dias: una tuberia de agua, un viaje en coche, un tunel, los cambios de estacion, la dulzura del sol... y lo trasciende, de pronto, para conducirnos a un sorprendente cierre de poema que nos aboca, irremediablemente, al silencio y la reflexion. El corazon del lector palpita y se ve inmerso, sin haberlo previsto, en temas como la muerte, el amor, la familia o la teologia cristiana ortodoxa, tan necesitada de ser comprendida por todas y todos los lectores en el establecimiento de un dialogo con la insospechada belleza de la Europa del Este.

Resulta llamativa la unidad lírica presente en Sombras, incendios y desvanes pese a la diversidad de voces, estilos y poéticas que congrega. Esta unidad procede de una cierta atmósfera plomiza pero siempre plena en hallazgos. Digamos que se trata de un expresionismo poetico, un recorrido que abarca los distintos modos del saber de cada voz aqui recogida. Una herida, o su decidido restañamiento, recorre un ambiente, en un inicio mas gris, y una naturaleza, real y humana, que se hace cada vez mas fuerte, abierta, solida. La solidez viene de las aguas que han regado esta raiz: Ovidio, Eminescu, Celan, Isanos combustible que prende y arde fuego a estas voces que conversan con Frida Kahlo, Italo Calvino, sombras que se acompañan de si mismas en profunda introspeccion sobre la historia y su posible devenir.Esta atmosfera se refleja a su vez en las formas poeticas y en los temas abordados: la destruccion, el suburbio, la acedia pero tambien, en la reconstruccion de esa voz que han soñado y deseado.

En esta antología, que recoge las voces de 17 poetas portuguesas actuales, hay mucho de porcelana, en la belleza de las distintas poéticas; y de bravura, en el arrojo con que estas mujeres se lanzan al ruedo concurridisimo de la poesia. Porcelana brava viene siendo un oximoron, lo que en tiempo de pleonasmos no resulta mala opcion. Mejor aun, en tiempos de afliccion para los que la poesia valiente puede ser lenitivo, cuando no ariete.Maria Quintans Ana Luisa Amaral Rosa Oliveira Maria do Rosario Pedreira Maria Joo Cantinho Ana Marques Gasto Ana Paula Inacio Renata Correia Botelho Rita Taborda Duarte Ines Fonseca Santos Filipa Leal Claudia R.

La exploración y catalogación del archivo de Jaime García Terrés reveló la existencia de varias decenas de poemas inéditos, que se examinaron con cuidado para componer Carta viviente, testamento lírico de uno de los principales autores de la literatura mexicana contemporanea. El autor fue poeta, ensayista y traductor, y director del Fondo de Cultura Economica e impulsor de instituciones culturales.

La poesía de Efraín Huerta, reunida en este volumen, alcanzó una sorprendente variedad y una sensible riqueza de registros: desde el canto lírico, donde la vena amorosa y erótica es de una asombrosa energia, hasta los violentos textos de protesta y de indignacion civil; desde la viñeta delicada hasta el gran fresco historico.

T. S. Eliot took George Barker onto the Faber poetry list in 1935 with Poems, when Barker was only twenty-two. This was the beginning of a publishing association which would endure through nineteen further volumes. There was an earlier Collected Poems published in 1957, but this edition, published in 1987 towards the end of the writers life, is the definitive edition. Here, readers have access to the contents of all of those volumes together with lesser-known work published by smaller presses and journals both in the UK and abroad. The book allows us to follow the evolution of a major talent who subscribed to no school and scorned all affiliation, but whose work is uncompromisingly true in both its stylistic integrity and its unswerving conception of poetic responsibility.His work was passionate, intellectually challenging and highly original, his language incantatory and often hypnotic. Peter Wilby, Guardian

Halfway tree. The journey of our life found me / there at midnight in a ramshackle state. So begins Lorna Goodisons astonishing new translation of The Inferno by Dante, a poet she once described as uncompromising as an Old Testament prophet, stern as a Rastafarian elder.This Jamaican Dante, a quarter-century in the making, is as much transformation as it is translation: the poets narrator, its Dante figure, is now guided through an underworld by Goodisons great Jamaican predecessor Louise Bennett, Miss Lou in the book. Goodison draws on the entire continuum of Jamaican speech yet securely grounds the action in Dantes formal architecture, bringing an entire world to life: we encounter other poets, including Goodisons friend Derek Walcott, as well as Caribbean politicians, reggae innovators and other public figures. Here, she recreates the journey through the unpaved and rocky road of Dantes Hell for a contemporary audience and attempts to do for Caribbean vernacular what Dante did for his Italian language in the fourteenth century endow it with an entirely new vocal music and power.

A sequel to Philip Terrys Dantes Inferno (2014), where Dante relocates to the University of Essex, here the action shifts from Dantes Island of Purgatory to Mersea Island, in Essex still, where the poet and his guide Ted Berrigan climb a mountain made out of Flexible Rock Substitute (FRS). Dantes artists are replaced with contemporary artists and artists-in-residence on the Essex Alp, including Grayson Perry, Rachel Whiteread and Damien Hirst. Hirst, an example of pride, is encountered not carrying a rock on his back, as in Dante, but carrying a washing-machine, a Siemens Avantgarde, which runs through its spin cycle as he carries it. Other characters encountered include Christopher Marlowe, Boris Johnson, Lady Diana, Jean Paul Getty, Hilary Clinton, Allen Ginsberg, Samuel Beckett, Martin McGuinness, Ciaran Carson and Anoushka S hankar. On the final terrace, the poet, accompanied by Berrigan and poet Tim Atkins, passes through a wall of flames to reach Dantes Paradise, here modelled on the Eden Project, where the poet meets his Beatrice, Marina Warner. The poem comes to a climax with an interview with Marina Warner in the LRB Tent, followed by a gig from the Pogues, for which Shane MacGowan has been brought up from Hell on an Arts Council Exceptional Talent scheme.

SHORTLISTED FOR THE WALCOTT PRIZEHer poetry stands unsurpassed in its popularity and technical accomplishment - theres no better contemporary writer of forms such as the triolet - and in the wit, acuity and seriousness of purpose with which she shows us what it is to be human.Guardian This volume comprises the full poetic works of one of our wittiest, most beloved writers, and includes many previously uncollected poems.When Making Cocoa for Kingsley Amis was published in 1986, Wendy Cope became that rarest of creatures: a celebrated poet who was also a best-seller. Her artful combination of insight and wit made an extraordinary impact in poems that cocked a gentle snook at the pomposity of a literary world hitherto dominated by men.Through four further collections, Cope has continued to delight her readers while finding a whole new generation of enthusiasts when her poem The Orange went viral. Together these poems catalogue the desires and fears that underlie our ordinary existences - love and heartbreak, disappointment and a hard-won capacity to find happiness, even if only in the form of a poem.. In their profound attention to and encapsulation of the everyday, these poems serve to make our own lives the more remarkable and memorable. Collected Poems celebrates a lifetimes achievement by a poet who has been original and distinctive from the very start, and provides the perfect accompaniment to the trials, tribulations and joys of our all too human lives.This collection also features Nick Garlands original illustrations for The River Girl (1991).Her poetry stands unsurpassed in its popularity and technical accomplishment - theres no better contemporary writer of forms such as the triolet - and in the wit, acuity and seriousness of purpose with which she shows us what it is to be human. Rishi Dastidar, GuardianWe can love Wendy Copes words . . . for the rhymes they reveal but also for the sad truths they speak. Adam Gopnik, New Yorker One has to go back to Byron to find a poet as consistently witty, wide-ranging and technically outstanding as Cope.Los Angeles Review of BooksWe need not wonder at Wendy Copes continued, wide appeal. She writes poems that people want to read, and this is how poems survive. Literary ReviewWit and heart? Copes fans should rest assured there are enough gems here with both.TelegraphWendy Copes real strength lies not in charm or insight (she has buckets of both) but in the pitch-perfect exactitude of her writing.Sunday TimesHer poems are moving, memorable, funny, clever; they alert readers to what it means to be human.PN ReviewAny book of [Copes] work is a national treasure chest ... her work has, with care and precision, given us pathways to negotiate the world ... Her Collected Poems is as human as an embrace. Ian McMillan, BBC Radio 4s The Verb

SHORTLISTED FOR THE T. S. ELIOT PRIZESHORTLISTED FOR THE JHALAK POETRY PRIZESHORTLISTED FOR THE JOHN POLLARD FOUNDATION INTERNATIONAL POETRY PRIZESHORTLISTED FOR THE MICHAEL MURPHY PRIZEThe debut collection of poetry by Gboyega Odubanjo.On 21 September 2001, the torso of a black boy was discovered in the River Thames, near Tower Bridge in central London, clothed only in an orange pair of girls shorts. Given the name "Adam" by police officers, the unidentified boy was between four and eight years old. What comes next cannot without a story of water and offering. The sun shines and we gather because the river allows it. Na from clap dem dey enter dance. We enter with, and as, Adam. - Gboyega OdubanjoHaunted by the discovery of the remains of a young Black boy in the River Thames in London, 2001, Gboyega Odubanjos Adam builds from the Genesis myth and from Yoruba culture to examine with an unflinching eye the disappearance of a child and its implication for all Black lives, and for the society in which we live.Gboyega Odubanjo (1996-2023) was born and raised in East London. He is the author of three poetry pamphlets: While I Yet Live (Bad Betty Press), Two stops short of Barking (The Alternative School of Economics) and Aunty Uncle Poems (The Poetry Business/New Poets List), winner of the Michael Marks Poetry Award and an Eric Gregory Award. A Barbican Young Poet alumnus, Odubanjo was an editor at bath magg journal and Bad Betty Press, co-chair of Magma and a member of the Roundhouse Poetry Collective, after which he later became a Roundhouse Resident Artist. He was a creative-writing tutor on the Creative Future IMPART programme, supporting writers from underrepresented backgrounds. His UK garage single LDN GRLS with Love Remain is out with the Sony Music UK label Black Butter Records. The Gboyega Odubanjo Foundation for low-income Black writers was established in 2023 to honour his legacy. Adam, published posthumously in 2024, is his debut poetry collection.What a voice he has - fresh, worn, elegiac, present. If ever a volume offered a story about water, loss, migration and every last one of us, Adam does. Andrew OHagan, ObserverHere is a heavy, mystical, humorous and lyrical Black British voice that will live forever. Raymond AntrobusAdam is a watery chorus, spirited and kinetic. These poems crackle with love and risk . . . Odubanjo was a singular voice in British poetry, one which will endure. Momtaza MehriWith Adam, it feels like Gboyega Odubanjo excavates traditions to create a new world with a language and texture completely of its own. Tife KusoroAdam is an anticipated debut, from a poet rooted in community. A poet whose name and charm will continue to live in our hearts and minds for generations. Yomi SodeAn extraordinary and arresting book. Kate Kellaway, ObserverA monumental polyphonic odyssey . . . Reading this collection is an experience of exquisite heartbreak. Oluwaseun Olayiwola, GuardianOdubanjos art was - and is, in the never-ending presentness of his book - an art of the impossibly perfected everyday . . . Adam grants its readers extraordinary perceptions throughout - its a light, keeping visible a story too likely to fade from view, and making more visible a poet who must be read. Shane McCrae, Daily TelegraphGboyega Odubanjos posthumous debut, Adam (Faber), took the story of the torso of a Black boy found in the Thames in 2001 and explored its symbolism fo...

A couple of years ago Stanley Moss renewed his drivers license. Now in his late nineties, his license runs to his 104th year. He has produced such an immense volume of work in his long life that it seemed necessary for his readers, old and new, to essentialise this mass of work into a portable, liftable single collection of highlights, which these 200 pages represent. It has been hard to confine him to this limiting measure because he still, every week and sometimes every day, produces a wholly new poem, surprising his editor and also, always, himself. As he says in The Ocean Slaps my Face:Yes, Poseidon, you may call me the F-word, Im a fluke and flounder. I am a rogue wave, I am a rogue wave!Undaunted, outrageously alive, Rosanna Warren said, Moss flaunts more colours than the Grim Reaper ever dreamed of, laughs in his face, rhymes with abandon, makes a joyful noise unto the Lord, and struts with Baudelaire. He asks what John Ashbery called unthinkable questions, but when he formulates them, they take on the quiet urgency of common daylight.

A Poetry Book Society Spring Special Commendation 2024In the archives of the Houghton Library at Harvard blazes the incandescent work of V.R. Bunny Lang (192456), the American poet and playwright whose name has been all but erased from literary history. The fiery nerve centre of the literary scene around mid-century Harvard, and best friend of the iconic New York School poet Frank OHara who referred to her as one of our finest poets Lang herself has languished in the shadows of American poetry for too long.This book brings into print some of Langs most startling, strange, and beautiful poetry, much of which has never been published before, drawing her into the spotlight at last. It includes an editors introduction by scholar and writer Rosa Campbell, on Langs fascinating and often hilariously eccentric life, devastatingly early death, and her rightful place in the canon of twentieth-century American poetry. The Miraculous Season, published in Langs centenary year, is a revelation of the true breadth and brilliance of her poetry, rediscovered and made available in print for the first time since 1975.
