(P/B) THREE TRAGEDIES
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0005

Here in the authorized translation by James Graham-Lujan and Richard L. O'Connell, with an illuminating biographical introduction by the poet's brother, Francisco Garcia Lorca, are three tragic dramas by the great modern Spanish poet and playwright which have caught the imagination and won the critical acclaim of the literate world: Blood Wedding. Concerned with love that cannot become marriage among the primitive hill people of Castile, this is a play of the workings of tremendous passions and tribal ritual toward an inescapable tragic en...

(P/B) SPAIN IN OUR HEARTS
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0020

In 1936, Pablo Neruda was Chile's consul in Madrid, and so horrified by the civil war and the murder of his friend, Federico Garc?a Lorca, that he started writing what became his most politically passionate series of poems, Spain in Our Hearts. The collection was printed by soldiers on the front lines of the war, and later incorporated into the third volume of Neruda's revolutionary collection, Residence on Earth. This bilingual New Directions Bibelot edition presents Spain in Our Hearts as a single book as it was first published, a tribut...

(P/B) BORGES AT 80
CONVERSATIONS
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0039

The words of a genius: Borges at Eighty transcends our expectations of ordinary conversation. In these interviews with Barnstone, Dick Cavett, and Alastair Reid, Borges touches on favorite writers (Whitman, Poe, Emerson) and familiar themes - labyrinths, mystic experiences, and death - and always with great, throw-away humor. For example, discussing nightmares, he concludes, "When I wake up, I wake to something worse. It's the astonishment of being myself". (From the publisher)...

(P/B) THE LATE POEMS OF WANG AN-SHIH
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0051

Wang An-shih (1021-1086) was a remarkable figure - not only one of the great Song Dynasty poets but also the most influential and controversial statesman of his time. Wang rose to the position of Prime Minister, where he instituted a controversial system of radically egalitarian social reforms in an effort to improve the lives of China's peasants. Wang then left politics and retired to a reclusive artistic and spiritual life of self-cultivation. Wang spent those later years practicing Ch'an (Zen) Buddhism and wandering the mountains aroun...

(P/B) ADVENTURES IN IMMEDIATE IRREALITY
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0049

Adventures in Immediate Irreality, the masterwork of the Romanian writer Max Blecher, vividly paints the crises of "irreality" that plagued him in his youth: eerie unsettling mirages wherein he would glimpse future events. In gliding chapters that move with a peculiar dream logic of their own, this memoiristic novel sketches the tremulous, frightening, and exhilarating awakenings of a very young man.

(P/B) POEMS FROM THE BOOK OF HOURS
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0025

R I L K E ' S Book of Hours falls into three parts: The Book of Monkish Life (1899), The Book of Pilgrimage (1901), and The Book of Poverty and Death (1903). Although these poems were the work of Rilke's youth, they contain the germ of his mature convictions. Written as spontaneously received prayers, they celebrate a God who is not the Creator of the Universe, but is rather humanity itself, and, above all, that most intensely conscious part of humanity, the artist. This exquisite gift edition contains Babette Deutsch's classic translation...

(P/B) WILD DREAMS OF A NEW BEGINNING
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0036

Who Are We Now? (1976), the first half of Wild Dreams, takes a long poetic look at the cultural fallout of a more radical time. This probing of the changes in the American psyche through the 1970s is carried forward in the second part, Landscapes of Living & Dying (1979)-a work originally hailed by Library Journal as "Ferlinghetti's strongest work since his 1957 A Coney Island of the Mind. . . [He] pursues his disheveled muse with the innocent passion of a young beatnik, hiding his authentic erudition behind a comfortable guise of spontane...

(H/B) TIME OF USEFUL CONSCIOUSNESS
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0037

«"Time of Useful Consciousness" is a fragmented recording of the American stream-of-consciousness, always westward streaming, a people's poetic history in the tradition of Wiliam Carlos Williams' "Paterson", Charles Olson's "Maximus", Allen Ginsberg's "Fall of America", and Ed Sanders' "America: a History in Verse". "Time of Useful Consciousness" is an aeronautical term denoting the time between when one loses oxygen and when one passes out, the brief time in which some lifesaving action is possible» (Lawrence Ferlinghetti) «The foremost c...

(P/B) ASTRAGAL
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0038

As if the reader were riding shotgun, this intensely vivid novel captures a life on the lam. "L'astragale" is the French word for the ankle bone Albertine Sarrazin's heroine Anne breaks as she leaps from her jail cell to freedom. As she drags herself down the road, away from the prison walls, she is rescued by Julien, himself a small-time criminal, who keeps her hidden. They fall in love. Fear of capture, memories of her prison cell, claustrophobia in her hideaways: every detail is fiercely felt. Astragal burst onto the French literary sce...

(P/B) LORCA: SELECTED POEMS
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0004

This selection has been the introduction for generations of American readers to the mesmerizing poems of Federico Garcia Lorca (1898-1937). Lorca is admired the world over for the lyricism, immediacy and clarity of his poetry, as well as for his ability to encompass techniques of the symbolist movement with deeper psychological shadings. Most of all, Lorca's poems are admired for their beauty. Undercurrents of his major influences - Spanish folk traditions of his native Andalusia and Granada, gypsy ballads, and surrealists Salvador Dali an...

(P/B) EARLY POEMS 1935-55
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0007

"The growth of the work of Octavio Paz," writes Muriel Rukeyser in her preface to this bilingual selection of the Mexican poet's Early Poems, "has made clear to an audience in many languages what was evident from the beginning... he is a great poet, a world-poet whom we need. The poems here speak-as does all his work since-deeply, erotically, with grave and passionate involvement." In this, a much revised edition of the earlier Selected Poems (Indiana University Press, 1963), Miss Rukeyser has joined to her own translations those of Paul B...

(P/B) ASPHODEL, THAT GREENY FLOWER AND OTHER LOVE POEMS
Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0015

"Asphodel, That Greeny Flower," first published when William Carlos Williams was seventy-two, forms the heart of this new selection of his love poems. Robert Lowell praised "Asphodel" for delivering "to us what was impossible, something that was poetry and beyond poetry." Lyrical and moving, elegant and supple, it is charged with sheer musical pleasure. In addition to "Asphodel," eleven other important love poems have been chosen from the whole range of Williams' writing life - a life whose history of love is reviewed by Herbert Leibowitz ...

Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0028

"The people that banned words in books didn't stop people from buying those books. If you couldn't buy Henry Miller in the early sixties, you could go to Paris or England. We used to go to Paris, and everybody would buy Henry Miller books because they were banned, and everybody saw them, all the students had them. I don't believe words can harm you." -- John Lennon on SEXTET Resembling a musical sextet where no two instruments are the same, but all instruments blend to form a single sound, Henry Miller's Sextet combines six fresh and impro...

Εκδότης: NEW DIRECTIONS BOOKS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 2928-0030

As Bolano's friend and literary executor, Ignacio Echevarria, once suggested, Antwerp can be viewed as the Big Bang of Roberto Bolano's fictional universe. Reading this novel, the reader is present at the birth of Bolano's enterprise in prose: all the elements are here, highly compressed, at the moment when his talent explodes. From this springboard - which Bolano chose to publish in 2002, twenty years after he'd written it ("and even that I can't be certain of")-as if testing out a high dive, he would plunge into the unexplored depths of...
