Subverting celebrated classics of poetry and mythology and examining horrors from contemporary film and cultural fact, National Book Award-winner Justin Phillip Reed engages darkness as an aesthetic to conjure the revenant animus that lurks beneath the exploited civilities of marginalized people. In these poems, Reed finds agency in the other-than-human identities assigned to those assaulted by savageries of the state. In doing so, he summons a retaliatory, counterviolent black spirit to revolt and to inhabit the revolting.

Кобзар — збірка поетичних творів геніального українського митця Тараса Григоровича Шевченка, що увібрала в собі найбільш видатні його вірші та поеми. Твори, що увійшли до складу «Кобзаря», писалися на тернистих шляхах життя Шевченка, в неволі, у мандрах та вигнанні. Книга складалася поступово, її формувала сама доля великого українського кріпака. Надзвичайно милозвучною мовою автор розповідає про велич та красу українського народу, малює картину його історії та побуту, його трагедій та негараздів, натхнень та прагнень.

The book was highly controversial upon its release and Napoleon III’s government prosecuted Baudelaire for "an insult to public decency".

These poems pause for the spectacle - cloning technologies, super-slo-mo photography, narcotic cab rides - to describe a system of tripwires, pitfalls, and decoys that the notion of daily viewership entails. These poems are paeans to our facility for duplicity and self-deception, in which the act of living is like a movie we're not in.
