fb2After Nature, W. G. Sebald’s first literary work, now translated into English by Michael Hamburger, explores the lives of three men connected by their restless questioning of humankind’s place in the natural world. From the efforts of each, “an order arises, in places beautiful and comforting, though more cruel, too, than the previous state of ignorance.” The first figure is the great German Renaissance painter Matthias Grünewald. The second is the Enlightenment botanist-explorer Georg Steller, who accompanied Bering to the Arctic. The third is the author himself, who describes his wanderings among landscapes scarred by the wrecked certainties of previous ages.
After Nature introduces many of the themes that W. G. Sebald explored in his subsequent books. A haunting vision of the waxing and waning tides of birth and devastation that lie behind and before us, it confirms the author’s position as one of the most profound and original writers of our time.

She is a shimmering, tattooed, and acerbic angel, flown from Paradise to save him from the suburbs of hell. He, an accountant worn down by the day-to-day struggles of the nine to five, is dreaming of a white Christmas, a little garden and someone to love. She attempts, with scornful wit, to shock him out of his commuter's habits and into an experience of ecstasy.
Man Booker Prize shortlisted Deborah Levy whips up a storm of romance and slapstick, of heavenly and earthly delights, in this passionate work of dramatic poetry.
ever since i arrived
on your blue planet
most of it ocean
i hear the breath of an octopus
bigger than a car
eggs in her arms
calling for you

Anīkšu sils
A. Baranauska 342 vārsmu garais dzejojums «Anikšu sils», kas mūsdienu izpratnē ļoti tuvs poēmas žanram, ir spilgts dabas dzejas paraugs ne tikai lietuvju, bet visu tautu literatūras mērogā. Poēmas varonis te Lietuvas mežs ar pakalniem, slīkšņām, upēm, strautiņiem, akmeņiem, ap kuriem vijas senas teikas un nostāsti, ar savu koku, sūnu, sēņu, ar zvēru un putnu bagātību.
Pareizi uztverta un attēlota cilvēku rijīgā un mantkārīgā daba: rādīts, ka estētiskās vērtības arvien vairāk pakļaujas naudas varai un ka arī mežs kļūst par spekulācijas un iedzīvošanās objektu. Tiek iecelti mežkungi, kam jārūpējas par sila kopšanu un saudzēšanu, bet kas paši ar saviem kalpiem kļūst par niknākajiem dabas krāšņuma postītājiem.

Edgar Allan Poe’s dream poem is as close to music as words can ever come. First published on October 9, 1849 – two days after Poe’s death – this haunting, lyric poem is thought to have been written in memory of Poe’s young wife, Virginia. The narrator, who fell in love with Annabel Lee when they were young, has a love for her so strong that even angels are jealous. He retains his love for her even after her death.

«In the Midnight heaven's burning
Through the ethereal deeps afar
Once I watch'd with restless yearning
An alluring aureate star;
Ev'ry eve aloft returning
Gleaming nigh the Arctic Car…»
Это стихотворение было создано в 1868 году, когда Суинберн узнал о кончине французского поэта Ш.Бодлера. Наполнено реминисценциями на стихи Бодлера и образами эллинских мифов.

The Barrack-Room Ballads are a set of martial songs and poems by Rudyard Kipling originally published in two parts: the first set in 1892, the second in 1896. Many have become classic military ditties, still well known, and are closely linked to British imperialism in many minds, particularly Gunga Din, Tommy and Danny Deever.
The first poetry collection by acclaimed cult author Noah Cicero, Bipolar Cowboy is "a book of love poems for all those who loved so deeply it crossed into mental illness."
If you've ever loved so much you lost your mind, if you've ever felt inclined to wander into the desert to die alone, then take the bipolar cowboy's hand. He's ready to see you through to the end.
