Blood of the Quill

Azem Shkreli

Author of fiction, drama, screenplays, essays, and a collection of letters, Shkreli was best known for his ten verse collections written from 1960 to 1997, including The Buds, The Street of Angels, I Know a Word of Stone, From the Bible of Silence, and The Call of the Owl. This volume, Blood of the Quill, contains substantial selections from six of those volumes in a bilingual edition.

The Surface of Motion

Rebecca Goodman

Calling on other art forms, present and past—the music of 20th century composer Messiaen, the paintings of Bergognone—Rebecca Goodman's first novel, The Surface of Motion, explores art and time, time and memory, and the relationship of art to the lives of those who create and live it.

The New York Trilogy

Paul Auster

First published by Sun & Moon Press in three volumes in 1985 and 1986, The New York Trilogy has since been translated into more than twenty languages. It was ranked 87 in The [London] Observer's list of "The 100 Greatest Novels of All Time."

The Position of Things: Collected Poems 1961-1992

Adriano Spatola

Now twenty years after Spatola's death, noted translator Paul Vangelisti has gathered all of Spatola's poetry—with the exception of the very first chapbook, in which his "impetus toward neo-avant-garde experimentation... had not yet been metabolized"—in one volume.

Tussi Research

Dieter M. Gräf

Dieter M. Gräf's most recent collection of poems uses boldly elliptical language to explore all the Wagnerian tones of fatal longing, generals and swans, failed thinkers and introspective mass murderers, mystic outsiders and saviors of the world, Stalingrad and Auschwitz.

My Year 2004: Under Our Skin

Douglas Messerli

This second volume of Douglas Messerli's ongoing "cultural memoirs" features twenty-two essays, reviews, and other pieces on figures such as Leonard Bernstein, Holden Caulfield, Lolita, Cole Porter, Alfred Kinsey, Carl Rakosi, Marjorie Perloff, Inger Christensen, and Charles Bernstein, as well as a work on "The Death of the Mother" in popular culture.

Sens-Plastique

Malcolm de Chazal

Although two previous selections of Weiss's remarkable translations of this great masterwork have previously been published, no complete edition of the translation has been available until now. Now all English-language readers can share the joys of the aphoristic writing which Auden calls poetry written in prose.

One of the greatest contemporary Chilean poets, Gonzalo Rojas has received most of the major prizes of the Spanish-speaking literary world, including the Premio Reina Sofia, and has been nominated for a Nobel Prize. This new volume brings to the English-language audience a large selection of Rojas's poetry.
