If Only the Sea Could Sleep
One of the greatest poets of Arabic literature, Adonis's work often centres on the process of petic creation, but his work has somehow remained highly appealing to Arab readers, and he has had, perhaps, more influence in terms of innovation and modernity than any other contemporary Arab poet. Twice he has been a finalist for the Nobel Prize. For Adonis, poetry is a vision, a leap outside of established concepts, a change in the order of things and the way we look at them.''
My Life
A reprinting of the great Sun & Moon title.
Ten Thousand Lives

Maninbo, as it is known in Korea is now in its 20th volume and he has plans for five more before its completion. Collected here is a selection from the first 10 volumes.

Antilyrik & Other Poems
Vitezslav Nezval (1900-58) was an active participant in the European avant-garde between the two world wars. In the '20s he was the founding figure of poetism', a movement of poets and artists centred in Prague. Like other major innovators, he worked through a prolific sweep of modes and genres and formed an alliance with Andre Breton and his Paris circle in the 1930s, founding the first surrealist group and magazine outside France. This collection brings together, for the first time, a sampling of Nezval's major works from the '20s and 30's.'

White Magic and Other Poems
One of the greatest Polish poets of the 20th century, Baczynski was born in Warsaw in 1921. In the early war years he wrote copiously and studied Polish literature in the underground university, where he met Barbara Drapczynska, whom he married in 1942. The beautiful love poems he wrote to Barbara make up an important part of his writings. In 1943, he joined the Armia Krajowa (Home Army) of the Polish resistance. In August 1944, Baczynski was killed in action. His mother preserved his manuscripts and, in 1961, they were published for the first time.
