magic voice

Bloomsbury presents A Method, A Path written and read by Rowan Evans. **SHORTLISTED FOR THE FELIX DENNIS PRIZE FOR BEST FIRST COLLECTION 2023** An award-winning poet explodes the notion of translation, showing us the poem in a supple, malleable form 'Formally inventive, rich in aslant borrowings, unafraid of visual and textual experiment, it is an exhilarating debut' Guardian ________________________________ The poems at the centre of A Method, A Path explore the turbulent transmission of historical and mythic voices that 'reach across' time and place, and a fierce rejection of the nationalist ideologies that have sought to 'island' them. Here, translation is a lived and open-ended negotiation, invested in the potential for magic utterance and ritual action in spite of language's violence: 'words / tear their wing bones / and grow new heads / in the wound ('On Eglond'). Each poem or sequence gathers around a different instance of dialogue or communication with others: with other voices and languages, with other authors and found texts, with other species. They also mark a record of Evans' interdisciplinary collaboration with other artists and performers through his work both as writer and sound artist. The physical and textual landscapes of the book move from the flooded and wooded terrains of Somerset and East Anglia, to the burnt hills of Andalusía in the company of Federíco García Lorca, the poems always inhabiting a place between Evans' own words and external voices – whether via translation, haunting, or invocation. In this 'tirelessly inventive, substantial collection of vivid lyrical work' (Denise Riley, Eric Gregory Awards), the truant strangeness of the more-than-human world is made present in its ability to warp and transform the poet's voice, where 'even the ground under your feet is a fluid, malleable surface' (Kayo Chingonyi).

The Song of Salt and Shadow is an atmospheric siren-pirate romantasy about lost identity, treacherous seas, and slow-burn enemies-to-lovers tension. A siren born without a tail. A song meant to drown pirates. A pirate ready to drown for her. Hunted for her blood and the scales that grant humans magic they should never wield, Eryse flees the hunters and climbs aboard a vast black ship. The crew is cursed, and in the darkness, ghosts roam the deck. As she steps aboard, a silver thread of light appears - the Glim.

To claim the tail she was never given, she is forced to confront her own voice and follow a path that leads straight through a pirate who may be just as dangerous as the sea itself.

The poetry of love is often sullied by the many voices speaking fatally of common places and inaccessible repetitions, but fortunately Bill Wolak is far from the hack-like imitators we often find and shows us immediately his authentic voice, his human steps, and the heat which he assigns to the shivering words of real-life experience. Dante Maffia The pleading of the poet for the timeless, almost transparent image of the woman, of her body imagined as something mysterious and exciting, imposes a special meditation, especially an interior, almost abnormal bewilderment... Without using metaphors with any price, or some pompous thoughts and feelings, Wolak's poetical text is simple, but profound. Ion Deaconescu Bill Wolak has given us a cornucopia of sexual delights, some sweet, others mouth-watering, and many more that titillate our veiled fantasies. His poems are finely tuned expressions of urgency and desire. They explore the body with expectation on the brink of pleasure. John Digby Wolak's magic & word power have destroyed the last vestiges of puritanism on earth. Gabriel Rosenstock

He teaches himself by watching videos of tap dancers. Now he’s left home, estranged from his mom and her abusive boyfriend. He’s camping out with his uncle on the Lower East Side. His landlord, Dunks, has chops: He shreds on only five strings. Add Alexis on bass guitar and Keith on horn: These teens are a band, busking in New York City subway stations to scrape enough money to record an album.
