The Clean Shirt of It marks the first English translation of a
full-length poetry title by acclaimed Brazilian poet Paulo
Henriques Britto. As translator Idra Novey writes in her
introduction, "No other contemporary Brazilian poets write like
Britto. At least not with such a keen sense of the relationship
between form and content, or pop culture and high art." Paulo
Henriques Britto has received Brazil's most prestigious prizes for
literature and translation. He lives in Rio de Janeiro, where he
teaches at Catholic University. Idra Novey lives in New York City.
She received the 2005 Poetry Society of America New York Chapbook
Fellowship.
