We are proud to continue our project of publishing Deluxe Audio Editions of the poems of Gary Snyder, read by him. When first published in 2004, it was the poet's first new collection of poems in 20 years. Perhaps his most personal, autobiographical collection, it begins with the young poet ascending Mt. St. Helens in 1945, a climb accidentally timed with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was 15 years old.

In awe of her DNA, at war with her anxiety and at odds with her heartstrings, author Kaitlyn Wylde is never at a loss for words. In her new collection, The Head, The Heart & The Home, she gives her listeners orchestra seats to a timeless drama of love and intimacy, and struggling with the absence of them. Under the white-knuckled grip of anxiety, the chainmail blanket of despair and the windless knock of heartache, Wylde thrives as a storyteller.

Robert Herrick's poetic tribute to his mistress' beautifully carefree style of dress, which he finds more strangely attractive than absolute perfection, read by Bill Wallis.

Inspired largely by the poet's experiences as a young man working in the Saskatchewan oilfields, Mathew Henderson's The Lease explores masculinity and the roles morality, violence, and hard labor play in it. Equal parts character study, cultural documentary, and coming-of-age narrative, Henderson's poems make it clear that however we may try to stay apart from them, the stubborn and often unflattering realities of masculine culture persist, not just in isolated, dangerous environments like this, but in our very idea of what work is.

"The Passionate Shepherd to His Love" is Christopher Marlowe's emotional appeal to his lady to run away with him and live a romantic rural idyll, read by Bill Wallis.

Una divinità capricciosa e imprevedibile governa le nostre esistenze. Si chiama Amore ed è capace di farci perdere la testa per un'altra creatura in un crescendo di febbrile erotismo e impagabili dolcezze. Ma quella stessa divinità, grazie alla sua multiforme e inafferrabile natura, può prendere anche direzioni diverse. Spingendoci a stravedere per un animale, a dialogare con i morti, a esprimere piena gratitudine verso il regno del vivente.

Meu "eu" do passado se preparou para ter você no presente. Quando nos conhecemos, vestia a minha recém-conquistada maturidade e carregava a minha melhor versão. Naquela época ainda não sabia, mas era para você. Dois amores que se procuravam e, por um descuido, se esbarraram. Você chegou aos poucos, quase sem querer. Quase... Porque foi querendo que você permaneceu ao meu lado, mesmo quando tudo parecia jogar contra. E em tempos de amores líquidos, você decidiu fincar raízes.

No amor, não há espaço para o raso. Ele não existe na superfície ou mesmo na escassez. Amor é para quem tem coragem de se atirar na intensidade e se esbaldar na abundância. Então, nem perca tempo em ficar onde seus pés alcançam. É no profundo que ele acontece.

Em algum momento, você precisa abrir mão. Da pessoa. Do sentimento. Daquela sensação. Precisa parar de desperdiçar amor nos lugares errados, em quem não reconhece o valor de sua intensidade. Em Descobri que não faço falta quando parei de responder Caciano Kuffel reúne seus poemas mais intensos e inspiradores. Cada linha escrita aqui é a transposição exata do que você sente ou já sentiu, mas, até então, não sabia colocar em palavras. Caciano sabe, e muito bem.

The idea of doing this book took shape in Tammana Sharma's mind way before she even started writing poems. She firmly believes that poems are a reflection of the heart, and as a person who feels deeply, her heart has been writing poems for a long time now. But she started to let her poems manifest onto paper only when she turned twelve. One can call this a collection of Tamanna's poems from her school days.
