Böcker i Contemporary Poetry-serien

In this collection of poems, Lee Upton extends upon and deepens her experiments with perception and language. They contain multiple figurations such as a Dante-inspired guide and a Da Vinci cartoon, Hamlet's Gertrude and Lewis Carroll's Alice.

A philosophical, tough and often funny inquiry into 21st-century selfhood, this collection takes shape in the shadow of Dante's ""dark wood"". The poems are sonorous, sly and sexy. They are political in their address of gender through reference to pop songs, poems and personal experience.

This collection of poetry, Joshua McKinney's first, shows immense devotion to and passion for language in all its aspects. The poet attends to words and delights in the play of accidental connections and complications.
