Whilst the notion of the Mystic East and Oriental wisdom was greatly romanticised by the Victorians and others, the shadow of Colonialism has smudged the view. These great cultures are some of humanity’s earliest, their works, their art some of its most daring and most accomplished. In these 50 poems across 50 poets we hope, at least in part, to rebalance our view of this subject. We begin in the 6th century BC and travel with a poet’s words and eyes across India, China, Persia and many other places in between.

Usman Hameedi’s debut collection, Staying Right Here, is a journey in finding home. Hameedi invites listeners to bear witness to vignettes of joy and hardship as he navigates finding his place in America. From an ode to Bodegas, an autobiography of his eyebrows, and elegies for lost friends, Hameedi’s thematic metaphors for family, wellness, and American biases weave a literary tapestry.

Historia
The reconstruction and comparison of the model’s forms in the portrait and face image, in connection with new discoveries in science and archaeology, has aroused some interest in the funeral cult and its supernatural techniques. Continuum, plastic, and graphics of African art. It was a leap to understanding the image of Nefertiti, its unusual proportions, and the spiritual ideal in the work of Modigliani in his gallery.

Historia
Antes de empezar escuchar los surrealistas versos de “Los paisajes de la multitud”, tendríamos que plantearnos un hecho fundamental en la vida del poeta: cuando Federico Lorca llega a Nueva York, el caos constante de tráfico, gigantescos edificios, miles de personas siempre corriendo...producen en él un efecto que lo deslumbra completamente al compararlo con su idílica vida en Fuente Vaqueros y Granada tan pequeñas y provincianas, pero a la vez tan llenas de luz y de arte. Ese contraste producirá en el poeta una profunda melancolía.

Historia
Art Unbidden, Soul Unhidden is a poetry book that contains 100 poems on the theme of lessons learned that seemingly rose unwanted from the subconscious realms that often surprised the writer or caught them off-guard, with hope that something valuable can be passed onto the listener by what has been created through such a process.

Historia
We are proud to continue our project of publishing Deluxe Audio Editions of the poems of Gary Snyder, read by him. When first published in 2004, it was the poet's first new collection of poems in 20 years. Perhaps his most personal, autobiographical collection, it begins with the young poet ascending Mt. St. Helens in 1945, a climb accidentally timed with the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. He was 15 years old.

Historia
Chicago is one of the most widely celebrated, routinely demonized, and thoroughly contested cities in the world.Writing in the tradition of Howard Zinn, Kevin Coval’s A People’s History of Chicago celebrates the history of this great American city from the perspective of those on the margins, whose stories often go untold. These 77 poems (for the city’s 77 neighborhoods) honor the everyday lives and enduring resistance of the city’s workers, poor people, and people of color, whose cultural and political revolutions continue to shape the social landscape.

The 4th Poem about the beautiful Karolina, known for her tuneful renditions of popular songs with her Violin. She plays on the streets of Santa Monica, and also does recitals of orchestral pieces from Mendelssohn and Mozart. I feel she takes her audience on her own special journey with her when she plays.

Historia
Une route bordée de soie, de 12000 km de long, fait rêver depuis des siècles l'Orient et l'Occident. Une route qui traverse ici, la Chine, le Kirghizistan, l'Ouzbékistan, l'Afghanistan, l'Irak, la Turquie et la Grèce. Elle chemine aux sommets de montagnes ardues, de steppes de velours, de villes enchanteresses. Le vent murmure au voyageur des récits âpres et sauvages, où ces peuples d'Asie centrale vivent en symbiose et en lutte perpétuelle avec une nature aussi grandiose que cruelle.

Historia
The poems in this small volume are often short, humorous, and reckless, like many of the poems by this author in Persian. Like this one: Who knows? / Maybe we have someone like Gandhi, / But he has not yet returned from Africa. It is not possible to comment definitively on the genre or atmosphere of the poems, but most of them wander between romantic-erotic and sociopolitical. A recent category without indigenous signs is heavily influenced by the historical confidence of the totalitarian and repressive rulers of Iran.

Historia
Before he became an award-winning writer and poet, Brian Sonia-Wallace set up a typewriter on the street with a sign that said “Poetry Store” and discovered something surprising: All over America, people want poems. An amateur busker at first, Brian asked countless strangers, “What do you need a poem about?” To his surprise, passersby opened up to share their deepest yearnings, loves, and heartbreaks. Hundreds of them. Then thousands. Around the nation, Brian’s poetry crusade drew countless converts from all walks of life.

Historia
These are Poems from Exile by Balint Bodroghy. The first was written as an 18-year-old youth when becoming what is now known somewhat pejoratively as an economic migrant, after escaping from Hungary to Austria, and subsequently emigrating to Canada. The last poems in this batch were written in Vancouver in 1958, when he was a 27-year-old "young man". The next batch was all written in England, in English—still in exile, but no longer homeless. The final batch, contemporaneous poems, all in English—no longer in exile and no longer homeless.
