Moritz A: The Wren

The Wren

Dog Star

A landmark collection of poems by Bambi Lake, the beloved (and bad-mouthed) icon of '70s counterculture in San Francisco 

Bambi Lake, the pioneering chanteuse and trans icon, left behind a legacy shimmering with glamour, grit, and raw emotion. Her self-proclaimed greatest talent was "making people cry," and her poetry does just that, capturing the longing, heartbreak, and defiance of a life lived on the edge of queer liberation. From San Francisco's underground stages to the streets where revolution brewed, Bambi's words echo with haunting beauty and bold survival. This volume collects her most poignant and provocative work, offering readers an intimate look into a trailblazer's soul. Bambi didn't just exist-she burned bright, and her voice still demands to be heard.

The Distance of a Shout: Selected Poems

Poetry is the perfect medium to capture the elusive nature of happiness. This beautiful anthology explores happiness in all its forms - whether it be a fleeting moment, the promise of freedom and adventure, surviving adversity or the comfort of nature. With an introduction by writer, broadcaster and parish priest, The Reverend Richard Coles, Poems for Happiness is an inspiring and life-affirming collection featuring writing by some of our greatest classic poets. It includes famous poems such as 'How Do I Love Thee?' by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, 'If' by Rudyard Kipling, 'My Heart Leaps Up' by William Wordsworth and 'Invictus' by W. E. Henley. In addition to these well-known verses, this beautiful volume includes lesser-known poems to discover and enjoy. Part of the Macmillan Collector's Library poetry series of stunning, quarter-clothbound, pocket-sized classics with gold-foiled edges and ribbon markers. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover.

Poems for Happiness

A vivid and musical rendering of the poetry of Catullus, whose passionate verses have captivated readers for centuries &nbsp; “Catullus’s verses still ring true, reminding readers that the habits of the heart haven’t changed in millennia.”—Publishers Weekly &nbsp; In the fourteenth century, a manuscript surfaced in Verona that had been lost for more than a thousand years: the poems of Catullus (c. 84–c. 54 BCE), considered by many to be one of the greatest poets who ever lived. These poems, with their beauty, wit, tenderness, and heartbreak, are still as alive and moving today as they were two thousand years ago. &nbsp; They are dense, subtle, witty, ardent, fearless, deeply uncensored, nasty (sometimes), petty (sometimes), and always beautiful. It’s especially his love poems that have earned readers’ admiration over the centuries; the joy and the savage self-inflicted torments that he underwent in his “miserable, disastrous love affair” have been shaped into poems that for honesty and emotional power have few parallels in world literature. &nbsp; Stephen Mitchell, who is known for bringing ancient texts to vibrant new life, has now translated Catullus’s poems for a new generation of readers. These are the first translations of Catullus to reimagine his rhythms in English and thus to let contemporary readers hear the formal beauty of his verse as well as its content, which Robert Lowell calls “much more raw and direct than anything in English.”

The Blainville Testament

A dazzling second collection from “an immensely gifted poet” (Eduardo C. Corral, author of Guillotine).Spanning Appalachia to California, Will Brewer’s new poems attempt to make sense of some of life’s darkest turns: a father’s bout with leukemia, the slog of mental illness, a friend’s early death, and the rise of environmental catastrophes in the West.Yet despite these difficult moments, strands of light emerge: the smell of an orange on a plane, the starburst of a car hitting a power line, a citrus tree in California sun. Mysterious hair loss prompts dermatologist visits and reveals “how dignified it felt / to be looked at like that, to be read, / a record of past exposures / becoming a map to possible futures.” It is the type of knowing in which “knowing nothing for sure feels like a special kind of freedom.” Over time, a seemingly endless night gives way and an aubade opens to a new possibility: love.The second book of poems from this rising and lauded author, Nocturama offers a presence of mind and spirit that notices the mysterious, even in the wake of disaster.

Nocturama

Does loss define us or do we define loss? Tracing the duality of grief as it reverberates through a family, Callie Siskel wrestles with questions of identity and inheritance in precise, lucid poetry. Two Minds indulges and therefore exposes the vanity of turning private pain into art and the pursuit of self-revelation. Drawing on ekphrasis, ars poetica and the prose poem, Siskel expands the elegiac genre as she oscillates between childhood and adulthood, art and mythology, as well as the natural and domestic world. At once cerebral and emotional, Two Minds is an essential meditation on the ways that loss cleaves and doubles our perceptive power.

Monster Energy/ Ultra Blue

From one of Columbia’s most innovative modern poets, María Paz Guerrero’s poetry collection, Pink Tongue Out, Blind Cat, is filled with sinuous verses on the human experience told with cadence akin to salsa musicians like Héctor Lavoe.
In María Paz Guerrero’s Pink Tongue Out, Blind Cat, unnamed bodies are cut open in search of disease, legs buckle and collapse under pressure, and a blind cat stalks its way through the collection, bumping into unseen objects as it travels. María Paz Guerrero’s poetry collection is both experimental and lyrical, forcing readers to fall into its eerily clipped rhythm.
