Here in There
Here in There, Angela Carr's third book of poetry, is a lyrical petition to the human faculty of attention. In constant motion, the poems locate unusual instances of connection. They ask, do we give or pay attention? And what do we attend to? How do we decide what merits our attention? In a world where stillness is elusive, can we give or pay attention to anything but that which outlives our own distraction? Turning our attention to the senses, in Here in There, touch informs inscription, credit becomes an audible vibration. Carr's poems form traceable and untraceable patterns, disappearing economies of material.
The Rose Concordance
Poetry. In THE ROSE CONCORDANCE, Angela Carr sets up the rules for a game and then breaks them. The poems trace a constellation of fountains, whose waters lap from an erotic medieval poem through contemporary art and film. Like fountains, these poems resist any one enduring shape or reading. Carr's first book, Ropewalk, is an underground classic of highwire suspension, and her second, THE ROSE CONCORDANCE, is a fountain garden that invites the reader to tarry, and drink.
Deaf Republic
Deaf Republic opens in an occupied country in a time of political unrest. When soldiers breaking up a protest kill a deaf boy, Petya, the gunshot becomes the last thing the citizens hear - all have gone deaf, and their dissent becomes coordinated by sign language. The story follows the private lives of townspeople encircled by public violence: a newly married couple, Alfonso and Sonya, expecting a child; the brash Momma Galya, instigating the insurgency from her puppet theatre; and Galya's girls, heroically teaching signs by day and by night luring soldiers one by one to their deaths behind the curtain. At once a love story, an elegy, and an urgent plea - Ilya Kaminsky's long-awaited Deaf Republic confronts our time's vicious atrocities and our collective silence in the face of them.
Without Ceremony
Centred on the everyday, and crafted without preamble or pretension, the poems in Without Ceremony are a literary pastiche--a thematic mosaic not unlike tracks on an album. Amidst a timeless cast of characters from Lucretius and Eva Hesse, to Joan Mitchell and St. Augustine, Carr illuminates what it means to truly know something and questions how certain knowledge becomes valued over others. Without Ceremony spotlights the gendered division of ideas and the inherent strength of language to harm and oppress, as well as elevate. Within these pages, passing encounters become rare spectacles, and the ordinary, without ambitions of grandeur or ceremony, is celebrated, making Carr's new collection...

The Making of a Fatherless Daughter
For a female, growing up without a father or a flawed father-daughter relationship can have many negative consequences in her life as she becomes a woman. There are numerous recent studies that show the alarming effects on a woman's life who grew up with an unattached, unavailable or absent father.

You will witness their struggles, pains, brokenness, betrayals and the impact that fatherlessness has had on various areas of their lives. You will also learn how the power of love, acceptance and forgiveness can heal all wounds, give hope for the future, restore relationships and create lasting change in the lives of everyone through the book's workshop section. We all have a biological father, but when our fathers are not fully present in our lives, for any reason, there begins The Making of a Fatherless Daughter.

Dear Jo
Maxine and her best friend Leah enjoyed chatting with boys online, and so what if they lied about their ages--it was just Internet stuff. But when Leah disappeared, Max realized they weren't the only ones lying online. And what has happened to Leah?
Ropewalk
Ropewalk makes an acrobatic journey through the structures of history and language. Reminiscent of the work of Adrienne Rich and Gertrude Stein, Carr’s poems are compelling and challenging. At the core of the book lies a suite of poems that artfully revises the biography of sixteenth-century poet Louise Labé. Carr’s subtle skills bring language, ideas, memory and silences into a brilliant and highly original constellation.
