Poetry. Q / LEAR] concerns itself with the big issues of mortality and madness --like the play it uses as a backdrop. While some of these poems refer to bodies in decay, the poems themselves build, accrete, and pulse with Hinrichsen's trademark restlessness and energy. As a great poet of the soul as well as the flesh, Hinrichsen explores the primordial dance between the human spirit and our vulnerable bodies while making us experience it anew. --Sue William Silverman

The Minor Key

Flesh-plastique, Dennis Hinrichsen's tenth full-length collection, explores an endless array of debris fields, where we experience the repercussions of a life fueled by dirty, secular Eucharists. Moving at hyper speed through worlds-a compromising job in the nuclear industry, the purloined grave of the Apache chief Geronimo (not far from Atomic Annie, a cannon that could shoot a nuclear projectile)-Hinrichsen articulates each scene with a swift directness and capacious emotional range. In collages and atmospheric lyrics with stunning formal collisions, we hear anger and humor directed at the mess we have made of things, from the unsolved problems of nuclear waste and toxic forever chemicals to the decay of the American family. But we also hear joy for the sheer pleasure of music and old technologies; we hear compassion for friends stricken with dementia; and ultimately, we hear notes of hopefulness for a world which swirls wildly and dangerously around us.

Flesh-plastique

For the first time in English, a rich selection of poems by one of Germany's most loved writers. 
Hilde Domin is one of the most highly regarded German poets of the 20th century. A poet of the Jewish heritage, she fled political developments in Germany in 1932 and spent more than twenty years in various countries, including the Dominican Republic, which became her self-chosen namesake. Her work was deeply influenced by her time in exile and the loss of homeland. After returning to Germany, she was known as the "poet of return" and received numerous honors, including the Carl Zuckmayer Medal, the Nelly Sachs Prize, and the Grand Federal Cross of Merit. Presented bilingually, many of these poems appear here for the first time in English, brilliantly translated by Mark S. Burrows. 
"These shimmering poems lodge in the heart and blaze in the mind as they trace the journey of a deep soul through exile and self-realization."--Jay Parini 
"Hilde Domin is an essential poet for our current time and for those to come."--Rosebud Ben-Oni 
"For years we shared Hilde Domin's poems, photocopied from anthologies, eager for each of her blazing suns, our favorite forecast! Here is the book we have been waiting to carry into the day! "--CAConrad 
"Burrows has rendered Domin's deceptively simple language into an English that is as translucent as the original."--Hilary Davies 
"Hilde Domin wrenched from the darkest of times a formidable belief in the radiance that nonetheless exists in life."--Stephanie Dowrick 
"Through the clarity of Burrows' translation, Domin evokes not only her own experience, but the existential loneliness that is common to all; and there is solace in the recognition that this loneliness is paradoxically shared."--Jean Ward 
"Burrows has succeeded in carrying the radiant power of Domin's poems to the shoreline of his native tongue."--Vera-Sabine Winkler
