        Calamities

        by Renee Gladman

        Winner of the 2017 Firecracker Award for Nonfiction, this collection of linked essays concerned with the life and mind of the writer features one of the most original voices in contemporary literature. Each essay takes a day as its point of inquiry, observing the body as it moves through time, architecture, and space, gradually demanding a new logic and level of consciousness from the narrator and reader.

        Milk

        by Dorothea Lasky

        In her most recent collection of poems, Dorothea Lasky brings her signature style—a deeply felt and uncanny word-music—to all matters of creativity, from poetry and the invention of new language to motherhood and the production of new life. As much a personal document as it is an occult text, Milk investigates overused paradigms of what it means to be a creator and encapsulates its horrors and joys—setting fire to the enigma that drives the vital force that enables poems, love, and life to happen.

        While Standing in Line for Death

        by CAConrad

        After their boyfriend Earth’s murder, CAConrad was looking for a (Soma)tic poetry ritual to overcome their depression. This book of 18 (Soma)tic rituals and poems testify to poetry’s ability to reconnect us and help put an end to our alienation from the planet. (Winner of the Lambda Literary Award for Gay Poetry and finalist for the 2019 Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award.)

        SoundMachine

        by Rachel Zucker

        Rachel Zucker sweeps all the corners in this maximalist project of poems and prose, navigating love, loss, and personal and political despair. Through heartbreaking, often comic, genre-non-conforming pieces spanning the past 10 years, she trains her relentless attention on marriage, motherhood, grief, the need to speak, depression, sex, and many other topics. Part poetry, part memoir, part lyric essay—and not limited by any of these categories—SoundMachine is a book written out of the persistent feeling that the human voice is both a meaningless sound and the only way we know we exist.

        The Lives of the Poems and Three Talks

        by Joshua Beckman

        Collected as two books in conversation—part of Wave’s Bagley Wright Lecture Series—these talks provide a rare and unique insight into a deeply literary life. In The Lives of the Poems, poet Joshua Beckman offers three variations of the same talk that—through repetition and adjustment, a sort of echolocating—illuminate the intimate experience of making a particular set of poems. In Three Talks, he explores the fluid social dynamics of poetry as it lives between readers, poems, and books.

        Olio

        by Tyehimba Jess

        With ambitious manipulations of poetic forms, Tyehimba Jess presents the sweat and story behind America’s blues, worksongs and church hymns. Part fact, part fiction, Jess's much anticipated second book weaves sonnet, song, and narrative to examine the lives of mostly unrecorded African American performers directly before and after the Civil War up to World War I. Olio is an effort to understand how they met, resisted, complicated, co-opted, and sometimes defeated attempts to minstrelize them. (WINNER of the 2017 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry, the 2017 Anisfield-Wolf Book Award in Poetry, the 2017 Book Award from the Society of Midland Authors for Poetry, and finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award, the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award, and the Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award.)
