The Minor Key

Flesh-plastique, Dennis Hinrichsen's tenth full-length collection, explores an endless array of debris fields, where we experience the repercussions of a life fueled by dirty, secular Eucharists. Moving at hyper speed through worlds-a compromising job in the nuclear industry, the purloined grave of the Apache chief Geronimo (not far from Atomic Annie, a cannon that could shoot a nuclear projectile)-Hinrichsen articulates each scene with a swift directness and capacious emotional range. In collages and atmospheric lyrics with stunning formal collisions, we hear anger and humor directed at the mess we have made of things, from the unsolved problems of nuclear waste and toxic forever chemicals to the decay of the American family. But we also hear joy for the sheer pleasure of music and old technologies; we hear compassion for friends stricken with dementia; and ultimately, we hear notes of hopefulness for a world which swirls wildly and dangerously around us.

Flesh-plastique

For the first time in English, a rich selection of poems by one of Germany's most loved writers. 
Hilde Domin is one of the most highly regarded German poets of the 20th century. A poet of the Jewish heritage, she fled political developments in Germany in 1932 and spent more than twenty years in various countries, including the Dominican Republic, which became her self-chosen namesake. Her work was deeply influenced by her time in exile and the loss of homeland. After returning to Germany, she was known as the "poet of return" and received numerous honors, including the Carl Zuckmayer Medal, the Nelly Sachs Prize, and the Grand Federal Cross of Merit. Presented bilingually, many of these poems appear here for the first time in English, brilliantly translated by Mark S. Burrows. 
"These shimmering poems lodge in the heart and blaze in the mind as they trace the journey of a deep soul through exile and self-realization."--Jay Parini 
"Hilde Domin is an essential poet for our current time and for those to come."--Rosebud Ben-Oni 
"For years we shared Hilde Domin's poems, photocopied from anthologies, eager for each of her blazing suns, our favorite forecast! Here is the book we have been waiting to carry into the day! "--CAConrad 
"Burrows has rendered Domin's deceptively simple language into an English that is as translucent as the original."--Hilary Davies 
"Hilde Domin wrenched from the darkest of times a formidable belief in the radiance that nonetheless exists in life."--Stephanie Dowrick 
"Through the clarity of Burrows' translation, Domin evokes not only her own experience, but the existential loneliness that is common to all; and there is solace in the recognition that this loneliness is paradoxically shared."--Jean Ward 
"Burrows has succeeded in carrying the radiant power of Domin's poems to the shoreline of his native tongue."--Vera-Sabine Winkler

Ochre & Rust: New Selected Poems of Sergey Gandlvesky

Gandlevsky, Sergey

100 Poets for the Present and Future. The Essential Voices series intends to correct misrepresentation and misunderstanding in the broader culture. It has at its heart the ancient idea that poetry can reveal our shared humanity. This anthology features 100 poets who illuminate the queer experience in the U.S., including Kaveh Akbar, Rick Barot, Frank Bidart, Richard Blanco, Jericho Brown, Franny Choi, CAConrad, Natalie Diaz, Mark Doty, Nikky Finney, Nikki Giovanni, Marilyn Hacker, Robin Coste Lewis, Timothy Liu, Eileen Myles, Carl Phillips, Justin Phillip Reed, Kay Ryan, Sam Sax, Richard Siken, Danez Smith, Ocean Vuong, and many others. Diverse in styles, subjects, and demographics, the book is a mirror to the lived experience of nearly one century of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender poets. "I come to this anthology having languished, having felt benumbed, having come to question, at my very core, poetry's value, its potency, as we contend with our current brand of American tyranny, our Hour of Lead. As I read ESSENTIAL QUEER VOICES OF U.S. POETRY, I experience an incremental awakening, or re-awakening. Every poem, every phrase in every poem, clicks a small switch in me that had been shut down, repairs a blown fuse, brings a wound into the light, provokes it into being, or staunches it. The exhilarative truth-telling and wit, the poems that walk the page with a humble gait, and those that ego-strut, the foundational voices and the newly arrived, remind me of what poetry has been in similarly oppressive times, its capacity for liberative endurance. From the first lines of the opening poem, Frank Bidart's 'Queer'--'Lie to yourself about this and you will / forever lie about everything'--an entreaty against self-deception, we find ourselves in veracity's realm, where language reigns free. ... The lines of these poems accordion, inhale, exhale, serpentine, straighten, curl. A carnival of approaches to diction, positionality, structure, song. This anthology is not representative of a sector of American poetry. It is American poetry. The party contains multitudes and hints at multitudes to come. When I reach the last lines of the final poem, torrin a. greathouse's 'On Using the Wo|men's Bathroom,' I am no longer numb."--Diane Seuss, winner of the Pulitzer Prize Poetry. LGBTQ+ Studies.
