Award-winning American poet Marilyn Hacker offers the brilliance of Lebanese poet Venus Khoury-Ghata in an exquisite translation "She says "the earth is so vast one can't help but be lost like water from a broken jug "There is no fortress against the wind "the winter wanderer must count on the compassion of walls --from "She Says" Translated by celebrated American poet Marilyn Hacker, Venus Khoury-Ghata's "She Says explores the mythic and confessional attractions and repulsions of the French and Arabic imaginations with poems that open like "a suitcase filled with alphabets." Sex, barrenness, grief, and death--the backdrop of a war-ravaged country--are always at the edges, made increasingly urgent by lines often jagged and spare, their music unhaltered. Khoury-Ghata is a vital voice in both her native and adopted languages and we are pleased to present this important collection in English.

The Photographs of George Tice combine an appreciation of beauty with the grittiness of ordinary experience. Tice, the photographer/author of books like Hometowns: An American Pilgrimage, Fields of Peace, and the award-winning Patterson, has turned his camera many times to his native New Jersey. But these images of his home state, taken over the past thirty years, could be almost anywhere in America. They portray the movie theaters, shops, dwellings, and street scenes we have grown up with in cities large and small. Without the slightest effort to romanticize, Tice honors the commonplace with an extraordinary eye and a photographic excellence that is evocative to those of us who have experienced these settings. These pictures will stand the test of time as monuments to the American scene for future generations.
