Featuring both established and emerging Hong Kong poets across generations and continents, this unique anthology offers a glimpse into an exciting, diverse range of voices that make up the diasporic imagination of the contemporary Hong Kong poetry community. Adopting a diasporic approach, the anthology encompasses both native Hong Kong writers as well as expatriate and mixed-race voices who were born or have lived in the city.With a preface from the Hong Kong-born, California-based poet Marilyn Chin and a joint introduction from the co-editors, the anthology sheds light on some poignant, wide-ranging themes such as migration, identity, gender, language, belonging, environment that underpin the city of Hong Kong, a place situated uniquely between the East and the West, in the 21st century. The book also features a selection of artworks from some of Hong Kongs most talented artists, inviting the reader to make connections between the visual images and the text.

From the Introduction by Mohammed Sawaie:The Palestinian poets included in The Tent Generations, Palestinian Poems represent different age groups and backgrounds, yet they all express a strong sense of "Palestinian-ness". They include Israeli citizens, the offspring of those who remained in Palestine after 1948. They also include poets who lived or continue to live in the West Bank and Gaza, areas that are still occupied, or controlled by Israelis as of this writing. Finally, they include poets born in Palestine, but whose families were expelled, or migrated to neighboring Arab countries as a result of the Arab-Israeli wars of the Nakba in 1948, and then of 1967 and 1973.The educational backgrounds of the poets represented here vary. Salem Jubran, Samih al-Qasim, Tawfiq Zayyad, and Marwan Makhoul, for example, were products of the Israeli educational system. Others attended institutions of learning in various Arab countries. Fadwa Tuqan received little formal education in her city of Nablus; she, however, acquired instruction in language, support in writing poetry, and encouragement to publish her poems from her brother, the well-known poet Ibrahim Tuqan, mentioned previously.All these poems are written in fusha Arabic, Modern Standard Arabic, the codified literary, written language shared by educated speakers of Arabic in their various respective regions. Palestinian folkloric poetry, referred to as al-Shir al-Shabi or Shir al-Ammiyya, is not included in this work. Folk poetry, richly expressed orally in the Palestinian dialect,Ammiyya, embraces a variety of themes (national pride, panegyric, love, generosity toward guests/strangers, and so on), including the political themes expressed in the poems in this work. There is a rising interest in collecting and preserving this folkloric poetry, and several anthologies of oral poetry as well as studies have recently appeared.The 1948 Nakba, the wars of 1967 and 1973, and their subsequent tragic impact find expression in the work of Palestinian poets. Some of the authors in this collection had firsthand experience of the loss of home, and the up-rootedness from and destruction of their villages and cities. Others acquired knowledge of such experiences, the tragedy that befell Palestinians, through stories told by grandparents or parents, stories of hardship and deprivation transmitted from one generation to another. Thus, poets express in vocabulary specific to the Palestinian experience of the dispossession of homeland, the forced expulsion, the pain of living in the miserable conditions of refugee camps in the diaspora.

Eighty Four is a new anthology of poetry on the subject of male suicide in aid of CALM (campaign against living miserably). Poems have been donated to the collection by Andrew McMillan, Salena Godden, Anthony Anaxogorou, Katrina Naomi, Ian Patterson, Carrie Etter, Peter Raynard and Joelle Taylor while a submissions window yielded many excellent poems on the subject from both known and hitherto unknown poets we are thrilled to have been made aware of. Curated by poet Helen Calcutt, Eighty-Four showcases human vulnerability in all its forms. From the baby in the bath who knows daddy is gone, to the woman whose father haunts her through the window, here is a diverse collection of voices, delicately speaking the intense difficulties of the human predicament, courageously engaging with the profound impact that male suicide is having on all of us. Theres a glittering strength to this volume, because of the honesty from which its poems have been created, giving this book the truth it was seeking. We hope to shed light on an issue that is cast in shadow, and often shrouded in secrecy and denial. If we dont talk, we dont heal, and we dont change. In Eighty Four, we are talking. Are you listening?

A las cuestiones de hasta qué punto se puede hablar de alicantinidad o de alicantinismo en el ámbito literario, o de si cabría imaginar una específica poesía alicantina, contesta Luis Español: Si se me permite una opinion, dire que prefiero pensar que lo propio no es mas que una version de lo universal. Alicante carece de cualquier significado fuera del marco español y no se puede entender la realidad y la historia de España cuna del primer imperio global al margen de la del resto del mundo: el chotis, arquetipo madrileño, es en realidad un baile centroeuropeo de nombre escoces, y los chistes de Lepe son traduccion de otros chistes clasicos que los franceses cuentan de los belgas. Lo propio rara vez es esencial, porque no se refiere tanto a la esencia de las cosas, como al toque que les damos, es decir, a su sabor. Siguiendo con el simil gastronomico, podriamos decir que el arroz es arroz, y tiene siempre las mismas propiedades, pero tambien es cierto que nadie aceptaria que le sirvieran un arroz a banda si hubiera pedido una paella.

Esta antología de poemas de Carmen Serrano nos entrega mucho de lo mejor que la autora ha venido escribiendo durante años, una labor que ha realizado con un incuestionable amor a la palabra y una resuelta necesidad de escritura, sin cuyo continuo accionar no habria sido posible que tuviesemos ahora este volumen. Quiero destacar la pasion que anima estas paginas, una pasion que se mueve como en una incierta penumbra desde la cual la autora va mirando y padeciendo la realidad, la va transfiriendo a los textos para que podamos dialogar con ella en una intimidad que nos habla y nos recuerda nuestras propias vivencias. Es este un libro de quien ha vivido y soñado, de quien ha deseado y esperado con una intensidad muy suya, y ha querido que compartamos con ella su soledad y su angustia, su plenitud y su extrañeza. Lo que aqui hallamos se nos aparece entonces como una dilatada batalla que no siempre sabemos como comenzo, pero que estamos conscientes de que nos acompañara toda la vida.

Esta obra de Guadalupe Amor (1920-2000), construida en armonioso desorden, oscila entre la novela y el libro de memorias.

A wonderful collection stemming from a hugely important project keeping young Welsh writers connected to Europe despite all attempts to sever these crucial cultural ties. Rachel TreziseAnthologies such as this one are the footings of the recently-burnt bridges that we need to rebuild. They help to tear down the walls put up around us. Always important, they are now vital. Niall GriffithsUlyssess Cat brings readers the work of some of the most outstanding authors of the younger generation from Croatia, Greece, Serbia, Slovenia and Wales who participated in a project of exchange residencies originally launched on the Croatian island of Mljet, where, according to legend, shipwrecked Ulysses found shelter. As Britain becomes metaphorically unmoored and drifts away from Europe, keeping connected through reading and dialogue provides us with new perspectives on our place in the world and on the tumultuous times we live in. The works of poetry, prose and essays included here offer a snapshot of the concerns and preoccupations shared by young writers from a region with a rich literature that rarely reaches English-language readers and at the same time confirms the vitality of the bilingual Welsh literary scene.

Se sabe poco que el tango, esa danza mítica sensual, compleja y tan estética, es la cara más visible de una verdadera disciplina cultural y artística, que lleva en su lado más oculto letras cuya poesia es, mas alla del clasico tema del amor, una pintura casi sociologica de la vida muy pobre y dificil en aquel crisol donde se mezclaron los criollos y los inmigrantes europeos. Porque una mayoria de tangos dimanan de canciones (chanson a texte) imperecederas, escritas por letristas y musicos de un nivel excepcional entre las musicas populares, e interpretadas por cantantes conmovedores. Con Poesia de luna y tango, Leon Levy Bencheton nos hace entrar en las arcanas de esta cultura, en un paseo tematico por extractos, soñador y a veces desgarrador (Florilegio), y en unas presentaciones originales de casi 70 obras de referencia (Antologia).

Olvidados, marginados y casi ausentes del progreso, en India hay clasificados más de setecientos grupos étnicos que suman cien millones de personas. Conocidos como adivasis (poblaciones primeras) y, de manera mas reciente, como vanvasis (habitantes de los bosques), son una poblacion heterogenea de la que ya hay referencias en textos clasicos como el Mahabharata. Hoy afrontan un mas que dificil presente sin otro horizonte que el vertiginoso proceso de aculturacion al que estan siendo condenados. Jesus Aguado lleva años interesandose por ellos y por su deslumbrante legado cultural. Estos poemas hablan del amor y la guerra, de la peligrosidad de la selva y el azar de las cosechas, de ritos y misterios, de la naturaleza y la familia, de la muerte y los espiritus, de lo local y lo universal. Gotas de sabiduria que siguen iluminando los sombrios rincones de sus bosques o lo que queda de ellos.

Hace casi medio siglo, en 1970, veía la luz por primera vez la célebre antología Nueve novísimos poetas españoles. Lo hacía trasquilada por la censura y levantando una polvareda de polémica entre los sectores mas apegados a los temas y a las formas liricas convencionales de la poesia española del momento. Los escogidos por el visionario J.M. Castellet Jose Maria Alvarez, Felix de Azua, Guillermo Carnero, Pere Gimferrer, Antonio Martinez Sarrion, Ana Maria Moix, Vicente Molina Foix, Leopoldo Maria Panero y Manuel Vazquez Montalban señalaban la eclosion de una nueva generacion poetica, decidida a dejar atras todo lo anterior.Hoy vuelve a las librerias esta obra de referencia, que incluye, ademas, un apendice critico y un apendice sentimental en el que los nueve novisimos reflexionan sobre la figura de Castellet, responsable del espiritu rupturista de esta antologia elevada al estatus de clasico de la literatura española del siglo xx.
