Robin Morgan's lyrical gifts are again on display in this limited edition of four of her most celebrated poems Prostituted women, pimps, Alice B. Toklas, and Bertha Mason-Edward Rochester's mad first wife in Jane Eyre-all make appearances in a poem titled "Battery," a word that, in Morgan's hands, has surprising meanings. Affirmation underscores the perfect Shakespearian sonnet, "Birthright," as it counsels a defiant gaze at life and death. The life...

C'est une histoire d'amour comme il y en a tant. Celle d'un jeune homme en feu, d'un amour démesuré, insupportable. Celle du jour o le poète vise le coeur et tire. Ce jour-là,...

En 2014, Evelyne de la Chenelière a pris un pinceau, l'a trempé dans la peinture rouge et a tracé sur un mur blanc d'Espace Go des lettres qui disaient «Je recommence». Elle souhaitait déployer sur ce mur un chantier rendant visibles l'impulsion de l'écriture, son inspiration, en prolongeant cette étape (et cet état) qui précède l'œuvre «formée». Au fil des jours et des couches s'est fabriquée une sorte de fresque palimpseste que Justin...
