First published in 1925, and frequently compared to T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land, A Fool i’ the Forest is a modernist’s poetic expression of his ongoing struggles with overcoming the trauma of military service in the First World War.Taking its title from Shakespeare’s phantasmagoric Midsummer Night’s Dream, A Fool surveys three aspects of one character – ‘I’, Mezzetin and the Conjuror – as they struggle, and ultimately fail, to find a way to reconcile their differences and live with one another.Enriched with a fascinating introduction and explanatory notes by leading Aldington scholars Michael Copp and Elizabeth Vandiver, this centenary edition seeks to place A Fool firmly back into the canon of postwar poetry, from which it has been missing for too long.

Rediscover the rich legacy of Richard Aldington (1892–1962), a notable British man of letters. A prominent editor, poet, author of fiction, translator, biographer, and screenwriter who made an indelible contribution to the English literature of the early twentieth century, Richard Aldington deserves to be much better known than he is today. Best known these days for his novel Death of a Hero, which was based on his experience on the frontlines of World War I, he was a central figure in English literary and cultural life in the first half of the twentieth century, married to the poet Hilda Doolittle (H. D.) and friends with Ezra Pound, Wyndham Lewis, and others. This book accompanies a milestone exhibition at the Grolier Club, based on the largest Aldington collection in private hands, that is poised to restore his name to its rightful place. Richard Aldington contains a short biography, a bibliography of Aldington’s publications, and a catalog of the exhibition.

Penned after witnessing the horrors of the frontline during the First World War, Aldington''s brutal, honest verse lays bare unimaginable experiences.The first part of the collection, ''Exile'', explores the poet''s survivor''s guilt, post-traumatic stress and sense of alienation. The collection continues with a ''Songs for Puritans'' and ''Songs for Sensualists'', pastiches of seventeenth and eighteenth-century love poetry, and a series of more personal poems exploring the natural world, from which Aldington drew reassurance.Enriched with a fascinating introduction and explanatory notes by leading Aldington scholars Elizabeth Vandiver and Vivien Whelpton, this centenary edition seeks to place Exile firmly back on the map of war poetry, from which it has been missing for too long.

Úchvatný milostný a dobrodužný román předního anglického básníka a spisovatele první poloviny minulého století Richarda Aldingtona, spolu a Hemingwayem, Fitzgeraldem a dalšími příslušníka ‚ztracené generace‘, poznamenané traumaty 1. světové války. Aldington, v mládí autor nesmlouvavých básní a kritických próz, se v pokročilém věku uchýlil k romantickému žánru, avšak vysokou kulturu a průraznost myšlení, stejně jako mimořádný vypravěčský talent a hluboké lidoznalectví si v něm plně zachoval. Jde o přesvědčivě vyjádřený příběh věčného boje dobra se zlem, v němž je dobro sice jako téměř vždy v defenzívě, avšak přesto je nesmírně silné a proto ideově nepotlačitelné. Casanova, svůdce žen, dobrodruh a podvodník, je na sklonku života postaven před ožehavovu otázku, zda to byl on, kdo s ženami manipuloval, nebo zda ve skutečnosti nemanipulovaly ony s ním. Dokáže si vzpomenout pouze na jedinou ženu, která ho milovala skutečně a čistě - na Henriettu. Nakladatel Bohumil Sláma původní Aldingtonův text zkrátil a upravil, čímž mu přidal na kompaktnosti a vyzdvihl jeho poselství.

It is the fall of 1939, and Lieutenant Grange and his men are living in a chalet above a concrete bunker deep in the Ardennes forest, charged with defending the French-Belgian border against the Germans in a war that seems unreal, distant, and unlikely. Far more immediate is the earthy life of the forest itself and the deep sensations of childhood it recalls from Grange’s memory. Ostensibly readying for war, Grange instead spends his time observing the change in seasons, falling in love with a young free-spirited widow, and contemplating the absurd stasis of his present condition. This novel of long takes, dream states, and little dramatic action culminates abruptly in battle, an event that is as much the real incursion of the German army into France as it is the sudden intrusion of death into the suspended disbelief of life. Richard Howard’s skilled translation captures the fairy-tale otherworldliness and existential dread of this unusual, elusive novel (first published in 1958) by the supreme prose stylist Julien Gracq.

The first biography of Henry VIII’s court fool William Somer, a legendary entertainer and one of the most intriguing figures of the Tudor ageIn some portraits of Henry VIII there appears another, striking figure—a gaunt and morose-looking man with a shaved head and, in one case, a monkey on his shoulder. This is William or "Will" Somer, the king’s fool, a celebrated wit who reportedly could raise Henry’s spirits and spent many hours with him, often alone. Was Somer an “artificial fool,” a cunning comic who could speak freely in front of the king, or a “natural fool,” someone with intellectual disabilities, like many other members of the profession? And what role did he play in the tumultuous and violent Tudor era? Fool is the first biography of Somer—and perhaps the first of a Renaissance fool. After his death, Somer disappeared behind his legend, and historians struggled to separate myth from reality. Unearthing as many facts as possible, Peter K. Andersson pieces together the fullest picture yet of an enigmatic and unusual man with a very strange job.

“This may be the most anticipated poetry book of the last decade...expect it to haunt you.”—NPR.org"Richard Siken writes about love, desire, violence, and eroticism with a cinematic brilliance and urgency."—Huffington Post In reviewing Richard Siken''s first book, Crush, the New York Times wrote that "his territory is [where] passion and eloquence collide and fuse." In this long-awaited follow-up to Crush, Siken turns toward the problems of making and representation, in an unrelenting interrogation of our world of doublings. In this restless, swerving book simple questions—such as, Why paint a bird?—are immediately complicated by concerns of morality, human capacity, and the ways we look to art for meaning and purpose while participating in its—and our own—invention.
