  • av Tom Andrews
    301

    "Tom was singular and luminous, as is his work. The leaves just burst from his fingers. He had that odd stance to the world and its lanugage that made whatever he wrote seem new and just discovered, like treasure hauled up into the sunlight from the ocean floor."

  • av Marcia Southwick
    177

    "In defiance of the precariousness of human existence on a minor planet revolving around a minor star, A Saturday Night at the Flying Dog is a celebration.... Marcia Southwick, with her expansive lines and insoucient voice, offers a gift of great good humor to weigh against what we now know to be the cosmic scale of things."

  • av Jon Loomis
    161

    "Jon Loomis's poems veer deftly and ironically between the sacramental and the sordid, with a wonderful economy of expression and sinuousness of line."

  • av Killarney Clary
    167

    Killarney Clary reduces the contemporary landscape to its essences and essentials, revealing the ways in which it is broken, unchartable, mysterious, and violent. Her language is unerring, her vision unique.

  • av Dennis Schmitz
    197

    The keenly anticipated new volume by this masterful American poet

  • av Angie Estes
    197

    The highly anticipated new book from the Pulitzer finalist

  • av Gemma Gorga
    207

    Imagine a book of hours condensed into a book of minutes: that is the project of the compact lyrical prose poems found in Gemma Gorga's Book of Minutes, the first English-language translation of this emerging poet, widely known and loved in her native Catalonia yet little known outside it. The poems in Book of Minutes move seamlessly from philosophical speculation to aphorism, condensed narrative, brief love letter, and prayer, finding the metaphysical in even the most mundane. In the space of one or two paragraphs, they ponder God, love, language, existence, and beginnings and endings both large and small. In her openness to explore these and many other subjects, Gorga's leitmotif might well be "light." Carrying with them echoes of Wallace Stevens, Rainer Maria Rilke, Hans Christian Andersen, Francis Ponge, George Herbert, and Emily Dickinson, the poems in Book of Minutes are nonetheless firmly in the twenty-first century, moving in a single breath from the soul to diopters or benzodiazepine. In deft, idiomatic translation from Sharon Dolin, Book of Minutes also retains the original Catalan texts on facing pages.

  • av Jonah Winter
    191

    Readers who have followed Jonah Winter's work in the pages of Field and other magazines, and who know his delightful first collection, MAINE, will welcome this lively and inventive volume. Winter's admirers, who include poets like Charles Simic, Charles Wright, and David Lehman (who selected MAINE for Slope Editions and wrote the introduction), emphasize his assimilation of the Surrealist tradition to an American landscape and a contemporary culture that become dreamlike, surprising, poignant, and hilarious in his capable hands. Objects and events we might never have thought capable of poetic treatment acquire grace, beauty, and even a certain immortality in this book. It becomes a stay against amnesia that constitutes an enterprise both comic and heroic. Selected from over 500 manuscript entries, this is the seventh winner of our annual contest. The next prize entrants are invited to submit in May 2004, and the prize winner will be announced by August.

  • av Carol Moldaw
    187

    Carol Moldaw explores new territory in poems that are thematically far-reaching and technically superb. The book includes three long sequences based on art and artifact in various stages of completeness: preliminary pen-and-ink studies, Turkish ruins, and, at the center, the site-specific art installation that gives the book its title and impetus

  • av Angie Estes
    187

    "Angie Estes takes very alert art and wakes it up all over again. Out of wonderful sliding sound relationships and torqued-up rhythms, out of histories as vivid as they are diverse, she creates a present moment in which we realize that Giotto and Le Corbusier are, and have always been, contemporaries--our contemporaries--for great art always happens in the present, and Estes' work is no exception. It's now."

  • av Jon Loomis
    191

  • av Venus Khoury-Ghata
    197

    "A searing translation of the poems of a prolific Lebanese writer who has always straddled two cultures, the Arabic and the French. Hacker luminously brings to life Khoury-Ghata's intimate, mysterious, and unique voice."

  • av Marianne Boruch

He has a fresh and distinctive voice. This is O'Keefe's first book.

  • av Mary Cornish
    187

    Winner of the 2006 FIELD Poetry Prize, Red Studio is a collection of startling lyricism, vivid sensuality, and keen precision. Cornish's poems tell about life and art and their interdependence. They are fierce, funny, and filled with a love of the world that acknowledges candidly how precarious it is--or rather, how brief our time in it must be.
