    26 Tears by George Tysh / Chris Tysh

    ,
    What an abracadabra of abecedarian magic is 26 Tears! Evoking the Aramaic avra kehdabra, "I will create as I speak," this collaborative incantation weaves a magical spell of language. Two poets riff in alphabetical measure with illuminating literary texts, an epidemic, and a quotidian of political angst. — Maureen Owen

    A Lyrebird, Selected Poems of Michael Farrell by Michael Farrell; Editor Jared Schickling

    ,
    Enter A Lyrebird and you open onto a polyphony of slang and nuance. Expect a humorous disorientation and deep travel through undersides of all that can be said and borrowed. Just in time, since mono-culture cannot know itself, Michael Farrell’s deft bravery transmutes English and gives us journeys out. —Sarah Riggs

    Alice Through the Working Class by Steve McCaffery, illustrations by Clelia Scala

    , ,
    McCaffery, with his customary linguistic wit, now takes [Alice] through the working-class, into the industrial revolution, where Mary Wollestonecraft is the Red Queen, and the Soviet workers’ paradise, where Lenin is the Lion and the Unicorn is Trotsky. And, horribile dictu, it works. Don’t miss the Bolshevik Jabberwocky.—Jean-Jacques Lecercle,

    An Anatomy Of The Night by Clayton Eshleman

    ,
    An Anatomy Of The Night by Clayton Eshleman is a magnificent new work by one of America’s foremost poets. In thirty-one parts written between December 2010 and February 2011, Eshleman’s long poem creates a choral effect that masterfully evokes fragments of candid observation shimmering in rhythmic intensity. In bold simplicities, illustrative sensibilities and lyrical integrity this work is imaginative, intimate and beautifully controlled. Hauntingly, these poems rip open the space of the long form poem and create something new and brilliant.

    Apollo: A Conceptual Poem by Geoffrey Gatza : Based upon the ballet by Igor Stravinsky

    ,
    At its heart, this book is about Marcel Duchamp but it is also about chess. It was thought for a long while that Marcel Duchamp gave up art to play professional chess. However, this was found to be not true with the revelation of his last major artwork, Étant donnés.

    Around the day in 80 worlds By Rachel Blau DuPlessis

    ,
    Around each day, she flies her rounds— tempestuous. DuPlessis revels in travel and records what unravels in one’s habits of attention when all the elsewheres return us to a home we are about to lose. “What is the true story of any time? / any itinerary?/ and of its traveling sorrows?” I encounter so many moments of startling honesty— each poem is a face as pert as day and as wild as night, looking up, from a labyrinth of drafts. —Divya Victor

    Black and Yellow Notebooks by Stephen Ratcliffe

    , ,
    The wonderful momentum of Ratcliffe’s clipped language echoes the staccato footsteps of his week-long hikes. It’s walking art in the tradition of Richard Long and Hamish Fulton, yet kept in motion through a constantly shifting, ever-piercing attention that keeps the reader acutely present to the changing light, the passing crows, and the meteors streaking through the August night sky. To enter this book is to go uncommonly outside. -- Cole Swensen

    CLOUD / RIDGE by Stephen Ratcliffe

    ,
    Stephen Ratcliffe is in his blue or green or yellow or mauve or brick-red or phthalocyanine period. That is, the serene repetitive seriousness of the shapes and colors of his work, like that of the late style of a great painter, who’s painting the same things, day after day, week after week, month after month, year by year (book by book) until what’s depicted, though absolutely precise and completely clear (located in space without exaggeration or attitude), modulates in color, picture by picture and day by day, until it disappears into its own blended shadings, becoming everything at once–and nothing. —Norman Fischer

    Thrilled to be writing this blurb because I love Ted Greenwald's poetry. It is extraordinary lifelike in its interlocking pattern and surprise. I mean like life, if life were a made thing, a homemade pinwheel blown askew and ridden to the front-stoop carnival where your friends work and you can talk about how your mouth feels when you fill pronouns from the dictionary. And how you don't need the dictionary. Rearrange. The world's so modular! Set free for a minute. — Cathy Wagner

    Day by Kent Johnson

    If the 836-pp. Day established Kenny Goldsmith as without a doubt the leading conceptual poet of his time, the 836-pp. Day by Kent Johnson may well be remembered for nudging the politics of Conceptual Poetry out of blithely affirmative, institutional framings, and into truly negational, critical spaces. —Juliana Spahr

    Descent of the Dolls Part I by Jeffery Conway, Gillian McCain, and David Trinidad

    ,
    Dante’s Inferno meets the 1967 movie Valley of the Dolls in this collaborative descent into a Hollywood camp classic. Over ten years in the writing, the first installment of this epic poetic conversation sees poets Jeffery Conway, Gillian McCain, and David Trinidad pair up with their respective Virgil-esque guides: Frank O’Hara, Sharon Tate, and Anne Sexton. Our three poets follow the film’s heroines—Anne, Neely, and Jennifer—backstage into the murky circles of Showbiz and PoBiz. Down, down, down they go. Anything can happen: Allen Ginsberg kicks a talented poet out of the show, Joan Crawford makes a drunken visitation, the heads of ambitious M.F.A. poetry students roll!

    Evening Train by Tom Clark

    ,
    In Evening Train we witness people on a bus, a window in the night, greenery, a bird on its perch—and then at the center of this world, something nameless seems to open. It’s hard to say just what happens, other than the words of each poem itself. But that isn’t quite right. It’s as if the words are a way for the poet to inscribe silence. You turn the page, wondering, and it arrives again—something quite beyond what is told. Tom Clark is a master. —Aram Saroyan

    Fantastic Caryatids, by Anne Waldman and Vincent Katz

    Fantastic Caryatids, by Anne Waldman & Vincent Katz, is a lush, vivid and spectacular reading/album/book of poetry, conversation and photographs. Note that the subtitle is A Conversation with Art. The "with" has the particularities of city, specificities of the senses, of memories, of an ethos whose upper limit is friendship, companionship. It is a model, a remarkable “alternative version of how to be alive.” (Anne Waldman) Dynamic, urbane, intimate, “the occasion of these ruses” (Frank O’Hara) is synergy from chronos to kairos. —Norma Cole

    Inbox by Noah Eli Gordon

    Can we, as poets, create texts about how we think and feel by using the language of how others think and feel? Can we compose with the new streams of language flowing in and around us (e.g. the ephemera and minutia of everyday email) to express our own place in the world? In a well-informed gesture beyond Baudrillard’s null set, Noah Eli Gordon’s booklength conceptual poem, INBOX, opens a new chapter of intimacy—his, yours, mine, ours. Welcome to a new subjectivity; welcome to a new way to say from the heart—Robert Fitterman

    Six Verse Plays: Or, Some Poems For Performance, by John Matthias

    The poetry, essays, and fiction of John Matthias are widely known. Less known are the plays and performance texts that he has been writing and adapting from his longer poems in the course of the last several years. This book contains six of these texts, only one of which has been performed. However, the success of staged versions of “Automystifstical Plaice” suggests that performances of the other texts would be equally exciting. Both by the reader and the hypothetical producer of these plays, this book will be warmly welcomed.

    After meeting in November 1969 at the International Festival of Poetry in Austin, Texas, the Portuguese poet Alberto de Lacerda (1928-2007) developed a trans-Atlantic friendship with the San Francisco poet Robert Duncan (1919-1988) and his partner, the artist Jess (1923-2004). This book celebrates that friendship by bringing together from the Duncan and de Lacerda archives reproductions and transcriptions of all their extant correspondence in addition to the many inscribed publications, books, magazines, photographs, poems, drawings, and artwork that they shared with each other.

    The Camel’s Pedestal, Poems 2009–2017 by Anne Tardos

    ,
    Free-ranging, intelligent, a poetry of wit and survival—to be “crazy not to go crazy” and not going crazy and making art in the face of that: “finally taking a stand” . . . “there is no shortage of things to do on the path to a better life” and “letting things be,” “tip-toeing around the good and the terrible”—Maurice Scully

    The Jointure by Clayton Eshleman

    ,
    “What does it mean to see with the eyes of the soul?” In The Jointure, Clayton Eshleman offers an answer to this question in language of visionary symbolic consciousness. Intimate and expansive, psychological and anthropological data germinates this fecundating exploration and extrapolation of inner wilderness and the essence of imagination. In The Jointure, “memory is fracture” – the depths of horror enshroud the horror of depths – but imagination is revealed as the “keelson of paradise.” —Stuart Kendall

    “now, 1/3” and thepoem by Demosthenes Agrafiotis | Translated by John Sakkis and Angelos Sakkis

    ,
    "A book of temporally organized form that renounces time, that disassembles form. Demosthenes Agrafiotis' poetry argues, chafes, bristles, and unrelentingly chomps at the bit of its own constraint, as well as at every other human construct, linguistic or otherwise, that might serve as a convenient container for consciousness. ""now, 1/3"" is an extraction of sand from the hourglass… as if the sand weren't free to begin with. —Harold Abramowitz
