Paperback. Etat : Very Good. In this, her first single-volume collection to be published in English, Aase Berg works a wicked necromancy in her poems. Filling each page with fluids and viscera she plunges into the palpable, pulsating center of our psyche?pulling up fistfuls of nightmares at once strange and familiar. To read this book is to glimpse the ecstasy you always suspected lay at the heart of every rapturous horror. WITH DEER [Hos rådjur] was Berg's first full-length book of poetry, originally published in Sweden in 1996. Since then she has published four more books in her native language, exploring the divine terror throbbing beneath the surface of a naturalistic and barely human world."Oh, you have taken it too far, Aase Berg, on this field trip to dismember an apocalyptic body that is self-bomb, culture-bomb; you are scratching at the interior of the bomb that has no exterior. Amusedly, bombastically, terrifyingly you scratch. Johannes Görannson's translation is lush and boldly guttural and the two of you have my intestines by a leash. 'One by one you turned my faces up / toward the sun's surface / and drank them like deer water.'"?Cathy Wagner.…

Paperback. Etat : New. "This is a threat." That's how Hackers, Swedish writer Aase Berg's seventh book of poetry, begins. Hackers is a furious, feminist book about wanting to "hack" the patriarchal system-both in the physically violent sense and in the sense of computer hacking. But Berg also reveals the 'hag' behind the 'hack,' channeling the non-compliant rage of Glenn-Close-as-bunny-boiler from Fatal Attraction. The world Berg "hags" back at is a world of sexist, capitalist, environmental, globalized violence. The fury of the hacker/hag/captive/revenger is constantly boiling up on the edges of Berg's compounds and highways, threatening to infiltrate the center. In these spectacular battle scenes and hacked pastorals, where nature is besieged by the highways of progress and the animals don't give a damn about the humans, the hag rises.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from the Swedish by Johannes Goeransson. Aase Berg's TRANSFER FAT (Forsla fett), nominated in 2002 for Sweden's prestigious Augustpriset for the best poetry book, is a haunting amalgamation of languages and elements--of science, of pregnancy, of whales, of the naturally and unnaturally grotesque--that births things unforeseen and intimately alien. Johannes Goeransson's translation captures the seething instability of Berg's bizarre compound nouns and linguistic contortions."The super-electron microscope Berg has used in her research shows the world's smallest particles--the vibrations of strings (belly buttons, violin strings, super strings)--announcing that matter is music and music is language and language is matter. As in the singularity of a black hole, the reader will find that time and space have become one, and that there are words in all directions."--Daniel Sjoelin"Johannes Goeransson's translations of Aase Berg are themselves a kind of gorgeous, dripping fat transference, a 'carry[ing of the] smelt / across the hard lake, ' an extra, extra 'pouring' of the 'runny body.' Goerannsson's radical theories of translation, as satanic addition and glorious mutation, are at their absolute best in TRANSFER FAT. And Berg's 'meat which flows / between the fingers' is fat to bursting with the sick, slick permeations and violent political possibilities of language/bodies gone haywire. Make that hare-wire."--Kate Durbin"TRANSFER FAT distends time-space, makes it seize, stutter, and repeat itself. These minute (in-)verses offer temporary microarchitectures no bigger than a duct, an eyelash or a black radioactive grain which might collapse or reboot the Universe in the very next frame. But not here, not yet, where 'rabies is freedom / in the Year of the Hare // here in the black fathermilk / of loneliness.'"--Joyelle McSweeney Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. …

Paperback. Etat : New. A linguistically playful and dark book of poems from one of Sweden's most influential and unique poets.One might expect a book by Aase Berg with the title Aase's Death to be dark, and it is. You may also expect it to be parodic, and maybe it is that too. But if it's parodic, it's darkly parodic. A defiantly dark laughter animates the book. It's also-like most of her writing-a slangy, linguistically playful book. Berg has argued that at the heart of language is "a kind of happy babbling for the sake of babbling." But in Aase's Death, the babbling is not happy or paradisical; it's drudgy and slow as if underwater. This feeling is apparent in the way the words move in the poems. The grammar is sometimes random and purposely fails to comply with the rules of good writing. If the deepsea state of mind is a kind of depression-even "death"-we can also see in this failure to comply with rules, a kind of bodily, mimetic rebellion, a kind of insurrectionary depression. This is the state of Aase's Death: a poetics of failing to use the right words, failing to be good, failing to be alive. …
