Lines on the Road
By H. Scott Hackney

My Sentence Was a Thousand Years of Joy
By Robert Bly
Readers have found Robert Bly's ghazals startling and new; they merge wildness with a
beautiful formality. The poems are intimate and yet reach out toward the world: the
paintings of Robert Motherwell, the intensity of flamenco singers, the sadness of the
gnostics, the delight of high spirits and wit. Robert Bly is writing the best poems of
his life, and this book reestablishes his position as one of the greatest poets of our era.

Sea Change
By Jorie Graham
In Sea Change, Graham brings us to the once-unimaginable threshold at which civilization as
we know it becomes unsustainable. How might the human spirit persist, caught between its
abiding love of beauty, its acknowledgment of continuing injury and damage done, and the
realization that the existence of a "future" itself may no longer be assured?
