“Il libro della follia” è la prima traduzione integrale in italiano di "The Book of Folly", che Anne Sexton diede alle stampe nel 1972. Lo stile confessionale che aveva reso celebre l’autrice, fruttandole nel 1967 il premio Pulitzer, giunge qui alla piena maturità trasformandosi nell’allegoria di un Gran Teatro psichedelico.

"Med Nye" balancer griber Caspar Eric tilbage til sin tidligere digtsamling "Nike", hvor han i 2015 skrev om at være en handicappet krop i verden. I sin nye samling, der bærer genrebetegnelsen 'handicapdigte', italesætter Caspar Eric handicappet mere kropsligt og direkte, og samfundets stigmatisering og diskrimination af ‘det anderledes’ problematiseres med poppet præcision. Samtidig leder digtene efter nye fysiske og poetiske måder at findes i verden på og måske også efter et sprog, der kan røre os — med humor, power og et skarpt blik på krydsfeltet mellem det private og det politiske.
