Em seu aniversário de 43 anos, Fabrício Carpinejar ganhou de presente uma velha máquina de escrever Olivetti Lettera 82 verde-esmeralda. Desde esse dia, ele se dedica a escrever nela poemas de amor e a guardá-los como um inventário de seus sentimentos e emoções ao longo de sua carreira. Pela primeira vez, a Belas-Letras publica esses poemas exatamente como os originais foram enviados à editora, em maços de papel despachados pelos Correios, sem nenhum tipo de correção ortográfica, edição ou retoques.

Inspired by Shirley Jackson’s We Have Always Lived in the Castle, these poems are meditations on female rage, postpartum depression, compulsion, and intrusive thoughts. They pull from periods of sleep deprivation, soul exhaustion, and nightmarish delusions, and each is left untitled, a nod to the stream-of-conscious mind of a new mother.

L'Iliade raconte le siège de Troie, mais ne le suit pas dans son intégralité. Le récit épique fait alterner batailles et scènes se passant chez les héros des deux camps, troyens et achéens, ainsi qu'au sein de l'Olympe, chez les dieux. Qui ne connaît les noms des héros de l'épopée: Diomède, Ménélas, Agamemnon, les Ajax, Ulysse, Hector et surtout Achille dont la colère va diriger le récit. Colère terrible qui ménera son meilleur ami, Patrocle, à la mort et rendra Achille ivre de vengeance. Vengeance aveugle qui verra Hector, héros des Troyens, anéanti dans un combat singulier.

Ao narrar as aventuras de Vasco da Gama em sua jornada para as Índias, o poeta engrandece as grandes navegações e o próprio homem português que desbravou o mundo em busca de novas terras. Por meio dos cantos, também conta a história de fundação de Portugal, mitos e lendas locais.

Campos de Castilla, publicado en 1912, es, probablemente, el libro más influyente de la poesía en español del siglo XX.

Vita Sackville-West’s book length poem celebrates the landscapes and produce of the Weald of Kent. Divided into four parts—Winter, Spring, Summer, Autumn—it paints a vivid picture of the Kentish countryside across the year and the farming practices of the Kentish folk eking out a living on its unpredictable clayey soils. Published in 1926, the poem was a great success, winning the Hawthornden Prize for Literature and going through six print runs in three years.

In this stunning new poem, Canisia Lubrin’s signature epic vision distills her elegy to her mother, along an interwoven and unresolvable axis of astonishment that belongs as much to history as to today. Her lucid attention to what might be the oldest metaphor for grief is drawn from the searing gravity and resonance of the modern poet’s decisive, interior, and inexpressible meditation on love, time, and loss in the excesses of life’s ambitions.

Um marco da literatura italiana, A divina comédia é uma representação bucólica e sensível da jornada de um homem em busca do amor e da salvação, e não por menos, uma grande representação literária para o cristianismo medieval. Escrita por Dante Alighieri, a Divina Comédia é dividida em três partes: Inferno, Purgatório e Paraíso. Paraíso fecha o ciclo de A divina comédia, a redenção da alma pura e completa. Após despedir-se de Virgílio, Dante finalmente encontra Beatriz, sua amada na Terra.

I am divine, sitting upon my throne, time’s pedestal, waiting — baiting. My venomous tales tear at life’s seams, desecrating freedom. Your illusions awaken. Your eyes grace my design. I am madness.

Divine Madness: A Dark Poetry Collection beckons you into the depths of the human psyche, inviting you to explore the turbulent landscapes of the mind and embrace the haunting allure of poetic madness.

The conversion of a local beauty spot into a municipal graveyard is the starting point for New Cemetery. From regular walks around the boundary near his moorland home in West Yorkshire, Simon Armitage chronicles the extraordinary transformation of landscape both outer and inner. These luminous and wry poems—composed in short-lined tercets—reflect the changing world: one of unstable weather patterns and unpredictable news events, all observed across a few acres of Pennine upland.

"The Iliad" is an epic by the ancient Greek poet Homer, which recounts some of the significant events of the final weeks of the Trojan War and the Greek siege of the city of Troy.

Yes, the title is misspelled on purpose. Jesus told parables-stories of different aspects of God-to help humans understand our Father. I think that our brains would blow up if we tried to take in EVERYTHING that is God. But we don't farm, work, or live the same way as they did then. So you will find in this book imperfect images of different aspects of God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, and sometimes, the melancholy cry of a soul.

Shade is a place meanders east-west along Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall, seeking “a Black sense of place” at the pace of stressed shade and street trees, the mall’s architectural history, and the speaker’s inner life and ongoing questions. The collection of poems is a moving invitation to open one’s attention by looking up, down, and always within. Through lyric walking poems (“tree walks” and “shade walks”) and Bashō-style travelogue, Shade is a place unfolds as much through arboreal life as through one’s inner life—sometimes alone, sometimes with others, and always among turning trees.
