| | 1. |  | Selected Poems: 1965-1990
from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $22.00
Customer Review:
I suspect she can rattle off blank verse in iambic pentameter without thinking about it. She can be as earthy as Sharon Olds ("Mother II"), self-deprecating as Philip Larkin ("Riposte") or amusingly Byronic ("Ballade of Ladies Lost & Found.") I appreciate her older poetry, but my admiration... more info

| | 2. |  | Love, Death, and the Changing of the Seasons
from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $14.95
Customer Review:
A pregnant pause between word three and four of one of these sonnets changed my life. Hacker writes an accessible, witty, beautiful, tender, sexy masterpiece (a novel, really) which has become, since its pub date, a folk rite-of-passage for many readers (even non-poetry lovers), a pole-raising... more info

| | 3. |  | Desesperanto: Poems 1999-2002
from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $13.95
Customer Review:
I'm glad there are some blank pages in the back of this book because it gives me a place to jot notes. What's happened around this book since it's publication-silence-(i.e. so few reviews) is part and partial/symptomatic of what the poet decries in her first poem-a prologue to the rest of the... more info

| | 7. |  | She Says: Bilingual Edition
from Graywolf Press
Price: $15.00
Customer Review:
Venus Khoury-Ghata is a master of words. She swims in language, dives in her alphabet soup, and splashes us until we drip. She Says is a compilation of poems that converse with each other, wink at each other. Each poem bursts as you read it, like bubble wrap, when you squeeze one of its tight... more info

| | 9. |  | Here There Was Once a Country
from Oberlin College Press
Price: $14.95
Customer Review:
Venus Khoury-Ghata has written a beautiful, unusual book of poems, beautifully translated by Marilyn Hacker. Khoury-Ghata is Lebanese, speaking Arabic and French. The two languages seem to form a musical counterpoint that underlies her energized imagery. Her line is simple and declarative, but her... more info
