Paperback. Etat : New. Some months before the year of revolutions a late friend took a train into the heartland of what was held up as a model of despotism; a stopping train, in his compartment one other passenger clad in a blue suit needing thirty minutes attention from a stiff clothes brush. Opening a mildly indecent magazine this other proceeded to masturbate for two hours of the journey before alighting at a border post somewhere between pine forest and pine forest.from "The Blue Company". This book records the author's final detachment, in every sense of the word, from his country of origin. The poems emerge from places where political upheaval has recently occurred and record the aftershock of moral and spiritual earthquakes, often in intimate contexts. …

Paperback. Etat : New. Sixty-four improvisations, whose principal motifs are a stretch of a small river in Central Europe and a once feral black cat, navigate the language that we inhabit and that inhabits us. Three philosophers or the three musketeers, Boris Karloff, Li Bai and an Indian companion, among others, ghost in and out of poems ordered according to the progress of the seasons.

Paperback. Etat : New. James Sutherland Smith's poems draw on his experiences of life in the Middle East and Middle Europe; what is most strange, they tell us, is to be found not in the exoticism of remote locales, but close to home. His language ventures into foreign and domestic places, into nature, politics, and the self-discoveries and self-deceptions of sexuality. A poem may begin as a purposeful quest but find its meaning in falling by the wayside. It may set out in full possession of its wits and end the journey distracted and unsure. All the poems are marked by a fascination with appropriate language and are alive to the textures of the world.…
