158,95 kr. From arcing fireworks to a bat in the belly of a church organ, Emily Kerlin's poems explore the expansiveterritory of farewell. Each poem enshrouds the reader in a mystery of loss, some minuscule, others astronomical, coaxing them toward revelation. And in what striking forms these revelations manifest: a boy lost forever as "Mice scuttle in the hay,/ brittle leaves scratch/ in the autumn chill"; a husband struggling with "the constant problem/ of breath"; a plague and its wake of "crocuses pushing purple into this cold March morning." Kerlin's poetry compels you to lean in a little closer, to listen and look with more intention, then rewards you with "a spill of starlight" and "the fragile lace of the human lung."

128,95 kr. Flame, a collection of persona poems in the voice of Mary, mother of Jesus (inthe Christian tradition) and Isa (in the Islamic tradition), is equal parts bodyand spirit, experience and myth. The poems are imaginative, as hope and faith areimaginative: we need to be able to envision a better day even if we cannot see ityet. What thrills me is the restraint, and how each poem quietly--butfully--delivers. Flame is feminist, timely, and timeless. --Maggie Smith, 2018 contest judge, author of Good Bones

183,95 kr. When Janice Airhart was an infant, her mother was committed to a Louisiana mental hospital, and she spent most of the next 13 years institutionalized until her death in 1966. That no one in the family would speak about her schizophrenic mother convinced Airhart it was shameful to ask questions and that fears of inheriting her mother's illness were justified. Mother of My Invention explores the unique challenges faced by motherless daughters and suggests that mothers can sometimes be found in unexpected places if we're open to finding them.
