"Always an elegist, in the Vergilian mode, Kane touches
greatness here in the beautiful poignance of 'Third Parent, ' a
farewell to his late mother-in-law. Only a handful of American
poems in the last few decades perform the work of mourning so
eloquently. Kane is a meditative poet resigned to a kind of
faithless faith that longs for a transcendence not available to
it."--Harold Bloom
Paul Kane writes poems of heartbreaking beauty. Cerebral and
emotional in equal measure, "Work Life" contains his most personal
lyrics.
A recipient of Fulbright, Guggenheim, and National Endowment for
the Humanities fellowships, Paul Kane teaches at Vassar
College.

Terror Scribes is a satisfyingly diverse anthology, furnished with
nebulous, original tales guaranteed to set your teeth on edge and
give you bouts of gooseflesh. From the home-grown talent of Sue
Phillips to prolific US gore-hound Deb Hoag, from the satirists to
the psychopaths to the traditionalists, from demonic possession of
celebrities to masturbating werewolves, from hair-raising
fairytales to disturbing accounts of everyday terror, you will
shiver and gasp and question. We are not oblivious to the fear
Terror Scribes will evoke. Quite the contrary, we're advocates of
it . . .
The fourth book in the Braziller series of Australian poets. Philip
Hodgins is unique in his unflinchingly honest and mordant account
of country life in Australia. In a vivid and lucid style, his
astonishing poems reveal the complexities, depths and urgencies of
living at the edge of life and death. Renowned for his
sophisticated yet understated craftsmanship, Hodgins writes with
subtlety, humor and heartbreaking intensity.
The Braziller Series of Australia Poets continues with the
acclaimed poet, Bronwyn Lea, deemed "the brightest light to emerge
in Australian poetry" in many years (Geoffrey Lehmann, Weekend
Australian) Lea's work is a brilliant mapping of the overlapping
regions of our sensual, psychic and emotional worlds, presented
with a linguistic and intellectual bravura that makes this a
captivating collection.
