Poetry Month is upon us...

In celebration of spring, and Poetry Month, Wesleyan offers a selection of diverse poetry titles, all newly released. It is a pleasure to announce Annie Finch's Spells: New and Selected Poems, Kazim Ali's Sky Ward, and Rae Armantrout's Just Saying. Many are talking about our reissue of Lyn Hejinian's seminal works, My Life and My Life in the Nineties, in an elegant single volume. Our fresh translation, by Clayton Eshleman and A. James Arnold, of The Original 1939 Notebook of a Return to the Native Land honors Aimé Césaire's 100th birthday. Happy spring, and happy Poetry Month. |
