Bread and Circus is a hybrid and palimpsestic memoir-in-verse: it combines poetry, photography and spectral imagining to explore the realities of economic necessity and marginal poverty through a personal lens. Examining the experience of the US urban Black community from a variety of perspectives, it draws heavily on the author’s archival research on Adam Smith, the eighteenth-century Scottish economist, as well as his magnum opus, The Wealth of Nations.

Temp jobs, conspiracy theories, squatters, talk therapy, urban gardening, the robot revolution: this collection fixes its eye on the strangeness of labor, through poems that are searching, keen, and wry. The virtuosic central sequence explores the untimely death of the poet’s estranged father, a handyman and addict, and the brothers left to sort through the detritus of a life long lost to them. Through lyrical, darkly humorous vignettes, Kunz asks what it costs to build a home and a love that not only lasts but sustains.

A world-bending, lyrically rich poetry collection that reimagines the U.S.-Mexico border as both a real place and a living simulation—and tells the story of a pair of siblings trapped between the two.

In a powerfully intimate and non-traditional (or "new-fashioned") memoir, Kwame Alexander shares snapshots of a man learning how to love. He takes us through stories of his parents: from being awkward newlyweds in the sticky Chicago summer of 1967, to the sometimes-confusing ways they showed their love to each other, and for him. He explores his own relationships—his difficulties as a newly wedded, 22-year-old father, and the precariousness of his early marriage working in a jazz club with his second wife.

In these peculiar times, we are thrust back into ourselves in a kind of suspension: one in which only private life exists yet threatens to become trivial through a sense of mutual, overarching dread. Lent from award-winning writer Kate Cayley is built from this tension, exploring domestic and artistic life amidst the environmental crisis and the surprising ways that every philosophical quandary—large and small—converges in the home, in small objects, conversations, and moments.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like without love? Life is a priceless gift deliberately crafted and packaged for our enjoyment, but it is not a bed of roses. It is a mixture of the good, bad and ugly-including pains and gains, sadness and joy, despair and hope, failures and successes- and it ends in death. Death reminds us we must make the most of this gift before it expires. How can we do this? Love and life are inseparable, dependent and complementary; love powers life while life makes love visible.

"BARBAR [Tavshedens objekt]" er en digtsamling om brutalitet. Amina Elmi skriver om at leve med en kappet forbindelse til sin families historie, ritualer, sprog og identitet. I sine digte forsøger hun at etablere en forbindelse til alt det tabte, men tavsheden står som et tomt centrum – alt det, der ikke kan siges, fordi der ikke findes et sprog for det, eller fordi det er for smertefuldt. Det er digte om tavshed som både nødvendighed og vold. Amina Elmi (f. 1994) bliver uddannet fra Forfatterskolen til sommer. "BARBAR [Tavshedens objekt]" er hendes debut.

Die Kindsmörderin ist ein Gedicht von Friedrich Schiller aus dem Jahre 1782. Es handelt von einer schönen jungen Frau, die ihr uneheliches Kind aus Sehnsucht tötet. Entstehung: Das Gedicht wurde in Schillers Anthologie auf das Jahre 1782 abgedruckt, zuvor wurde eines seiner Gedichte, Die Entzückung von Laura, von Gotthold Friedrich Stäudlin im Schwäbischen Musenalmanach auf das Jahr 1782 aufgezeigt. Schiller wollte Stäudlin die Rolle eines Repräsentanten der schwäbischen Poesie nicht kampflos überlassen und veröffentlichte deshalb seine eigene Anthologie.

I often think about our youth. It was indeed a strangely shaped toy, with a short body dragging a very long tail, spreading like wings, refusing to leave. A lamp is still on, but a song has been sung. A play has not ended, a love has reached the end of the road. We salute you. And the new curtain is about to be drawn. Maybe that's what human life is like, ending, starting, starting again, then ending. No matter what, we have to shoulder our suffering and happiness, moving forward, don't turn around.

Sometimes in your life, you meet someone special that changes everything you thought you knew about love. They may be younger or older from different religions or races. It does not matter how, why, or when. They bring a smile to your face when you had none before lighting up the darkness that you're living in. Your heart will race and your mind opens up to the distinct possibilities of anything you may have wished for or dreamed of.

Poems exploring our most fragile points of connection to lovers and family, to the living and the dead, and to oneself, one's own life's work—with the care and wisdom of one who knows these roads.
