Pia Tafdrup is one of Denmark's leading poets. The Taste of Steel and The Smell of Snow are the first two collections in her new series of books focussing on the human senses. While taste and smell dominate, the poems are equally about the way of the world and the losses that people sustain during the course of their lives.
The poems of Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) are among the most haunting and tender in Indian and in world literature, expressing a profound and passionate human yearning. This title includes his poems such as "Earth", "In the Eyes of a Peacock", "Recovery - 14", "New Rain", and "Grandfather's Holiday".
In this debut collection from a poet whose reverence for nature is a constant and comforting aesthetic, the poems explore themes of innocence and experience. From the intimacy of personal loss to war and its cruel consequences, these poems are always surprising, always true.
Of Clay & Soil is a poetry collection by Dominic Taylor that delves into themes of memory, loss, and the passage of time, primarily set against the backdrop of Limerick, Ireland.
This new collection creates and bravely explores the boundaries between predator and prey, between warning and transformation. Taylor's poems carve images from a chaotic world.
In her debut collection, Rosamund Taylor dares us across thresholds and invites us to glimpse the world as we've never seen it before. She boldly charts a journey of survival and transformation with poems on history reimagined, astronomy, sorcery, wild landscapes, talismanic creatures, and queer love.
