Previous volumes for Shearsman Books have included two volumes based on the reportage of Mayhew, and another based on the London Blitz. Here he uses reports of tragic deaths from nineteenth-century newspapers: melancholy occurrences, indeed.

  • von Gig Ryan
    22,00 €

    Manners was Gig Ryan's second collection, in 1984, and confirmed the impression she had made with her first book. It has been unavailable for some time. As Martin Johnston said of the first edition: "something new in Australian poetry: a deeply coherent 'discontinuous narrative' in verse of hallucinatory vividness and continual wry wit..."

  • von Guy Birchard
    22,00 €

    "Birchard's vivid, offbeat, casually learned and masterly language is refreshingly modest, individual-unfashionable. I'm not sure there's a poet with a better ear, and I'm also unsure if another has a feeling for how intelligence moves within and between lines that is any way superior." -David Miller.

  • von Ramon Lopez Velarde
    33,00 €

    `La suave patria' is often regarded as the Mexican national poem, an extraordinary tour-de-force that would change forever the way that poetry would develop in Mexico.

  • von Andrew Duncan

  • - Shelter Partials
    von Peter Larkin
    27,00 €

    "Larkin indicates how one can only pay tribute to the rarity and uniqueness of the scarce by not appropriating it in a fraudulent poetic equivalence of pseudo-poverty, but rather by asymptotically approaching it, with genuine humility, from ever new angles." -John Milbank

  • von Marc Atkins
    23,00 €

  • - Hearing and Forgetting
    von Pura López-Colomé
    25,00 €

    Speaking in Song displays the poet's extraordinary range and musicality, conducting philosophical interrogations of the natural world-and one's story, history, and place in it-in the context of hearing and memory, and in the form of song. Many of the poems have been set to music by composers from Mexico, the United States, and the United Kingdom.
