  • af Sarah J. Sloat
    147,95 kr.

    The sophomore collection from poet and artist Sarah J. Sloat, whose Hotel Almighty was a NYT Editors’ Choice pick. Classic Crimes is a book of visual poetry sourced from William Roughead’s true-crime classic of the same name. In these erasure poems, “to face cruelty is a ‘melancholy accident,’” and “to sleep…[is] an interlude of little dinners.” Each page bears its own cunning erasure poem adorned in colorful mixed-media collages, the result a joyous and gleeful romp through time.

  • af Alina Stefanescu
    131,95 kr.

    Behold My Heresies: the latest and highly anticipated poetry collection from Alina Stefanescu.Riven by the tension between hagiographies, utopias, belief, longing, and grief, the poems of My Heresies catalog a personal and familial history originating in Bucharest, Romania and landing in Birmingham, Alabama. Whether through sardonic takes on old Bible myths or homage paid to French-Romanian poet Paul Celan, Stefanescu's poems are laden in subtext, in imagery sometimes abstract and lush, at other times stark and shocking. My Heresies probes the boundaries between the sacred and the profane, and the result is a hauntological mapping of life, love, family, and womanhood.

  • af Marianne Chan
    183,95 kr.

    A brand new collection from award-winning poet Marianne Chan. A coming-of-age narrative, Leaving Biddle City details one Filipina American speaker's experience of growing up amid a white, Midwestern suburbia mythologized as "Biddle City." Through prose poems, pantoums, ballads, flattened haikus, and thematic autobiographies, Chan maps a territory of intergenerational conflict, racial alienation, and memory and forgetfulness. What's achieved is a work of play and meticulous beauty, a collection that reframes how we may understand ourselves, our histories, and the places where we are from.

  • af Whitney Collins
    163,95 kr.

    From Whitney Collins, the award-winning author of Big Bad, come twenty-three new dark and derelict (and hilarious) tales about-you guessed it-love. With Ricky, Collins applies her sharp eye, black humor, and generous heart to love stories (and the stories we tell ourselves about love). Among the wacky, tacky, lovesick, and lovelorn characters are: Ilona, the misanthropic mother and unhappy fiancé who is increasingly transfixed by a rash of local shark attacks; Imogen, the sperm bank client who cultivates the love she madly desires inside herself; and Aurora Flood, the coma survivor on a mission to plant a sacred seed from the Olive Garden. Blending elements of southern gothic, speculative fiction, and horror, Ricky & Other Love Stories is political and personal, bitter and sweet: ultimately, a lot like love.

    This collection follows the writer's struggle with masculinity from a small town in upstate New York to a boxing academy in Beijing. As much as it is the story of pain, it is also a journey to healing. For violence is our patrimony, but it is not our destiny. These poems challenge masculinity narratives, and master narratives in general, by reaching toward vulnerability and beauty.--Publisher.

    In this multi-generational anthology, thirty-seven living poets from Louisville archive the traditions and icons, landmarks and spirits, portraits and memories most personal to this shared place. Once a City Said takes the River City's narrative out of the mouths of politicians, news anchors and police chiefs, and puts it into the mouths of poets.

  • af Chant Reid
    183,95 kr.

    Reckon, "Black Joy: 2022 Best of Books""Those of us who have been following her work for a while have known Reid would come flying out of the gates and, well, here is the emphatic proof.”—Laird Hunt, National Book Award finalist for ZorrieThot is a ground-breaking, fast paced, book length essay that experiments with poetry, dialogue, and memoir. At its epicenter are two competing forces. One is Chanté’s upbringing in the splendor, density, rhythms, and madness of Bronx, NY, including the murder of Chante’s neighbor, Deborah Danner, killed by a police officer during his break-in. The other is Reid’s academic life at Brown University, where she is completing a critical thesis on Toni Morrison’s book, Beloved. Its characters—Sethe, Denver, Margeret Garner—wind in and out of the conversation, as do the Medea and Narcissus of Greek myths. Thot is a thrilling cacophony, a highly original mix of genre and voice, sure to please readers in search of something startling and new.

    “What magic, what beauty there is in these pages.”—John Freeman, author of Wind, TreesIn this adventurous debut lurk stories that are deep, lush, and full of wonder. While camping in the Kalahari Desert, a couple grows entranced with a starving lion on the cusp of death; meanwhile, just north of the Smokies, a young boy is held captive by a dangerous old captain who hunts dogs for sport; and off the Hawaiian coast, lovers kayak into the ocean to glimpse a tiger shark, only to find themselves in treacherous waters. The characters in these stories are headstrong and complex, and the prose is buoyant, rhythmic, and fiercely knowing. Nights from This Galaxy captures the spirit of a wild and wonderful planet, while acknowledging our shared fragility and the imminent grief that binds us all.

  • af Karisma Price
    183,95 kr.

    This collection is incredible. The poetry is smart, cunning. It is wise on a cultural level, but it is also deeply personal. This all shows, too, in the recent praise Price has been receiving; ¿My Phone Autocorrects `Niggä to `Night,¿ won the J. Howard and Barbara M.J. Wood Prize from Poetry, and it earned a spot in the 2021 Best New Poets Anthology. Price is currently a Visiting Assistant Professor of Poetry at Tulane University. Previously, she was an adjunct at NYU, a personal assistant to Saeed Jones, and a paid research intern at MSNBC for the Melissa Harris-Perry Show. She earned her BA and MFA at Columbia. She has been a Cave Canem Retreat Fellow, appeared in Best of the Net, and been named a finalist for the Manchester Poetry Prize. As her manuscript suggests, she and her family lived through Hurricane Katrina. We evacuated about 3 days before the storm hit, lived in Mississippi for about a month and then lived a year in Dallas. She moved back to New Orleans in 2006 but her family was homeless for about a year after and living in a hotel because our home was destroyed. This book is already a confirmed selection for Melbäs ¿Lunch and Literacy¿ program, run by Jane Wolfe in New Orleans. For this, the restaurant buys about 100 copies of the book and then gives them out to anyone who comes in that day. Readers also get to meet the author. Past featured authors have included Colson Whitehead, Hillary Clinton, Sarah Broom, Clint Smith, etc..

    This is a really powerful collection packaged up as a beautiful AND quick read. It covers important and ever-timely topics, like racial injustice, history, the American Civil War. Its hybrid form is done so well; the poems fit so perfectly with the narrative that it is never jarring to slip back and forth.Lauren Haldeman lives in Iowa City, where she also completed her BA and MFA, and where she currently works as a senior editor for the University of Iowa. She is incredibly well-connected in the city and its literary web. Mission Creek is already planning to project illustrations from the book all throughout downtown Iowa City at this year¿s festival (2022).We are planning a tour with stops at Manassas National Park, Iowa City, Montreal, Philadelphia, Washington, D.C., Chicago, Quebec City, and Toronto. Lauren has previously published a chapbook collaboration with Kiki Petrosino (Black Genealogy), in which she paired her illustrations with poems from Kiki that would eventually become part of White Blood. The two plan to do some of the east coast tour stops together. A comic excerpt from this book has appeared in Poetry, and Lauren has had other work in Tin House, Iowa Review, and elsewhere.This will be a really beautiful book. Full color. French flaps. Lauren plans to hand-draw most of the poems, as well.
