Avec celles de Baudelaire et de Rimbaud, la figure de Stéphane Mallarmé domine la modernité poétique qui se constitue à la fin du XIXe siècle, et, quoique son œuvre fût rare, adressée à une élite de lecteurs lentement accrue, "il lui avait suffi, dit Valéry, de quelques poèmes pour remettre en question l'objet même de la littérature".

This dazzling debut announces a not-so-new voice: that of the spoken-word poet Tjawangwa Dema. Winner of the Sillerman First Book Prize for African Poets, Dema’s collection, The Careless Seamstress, evokes the national and the subjective while reemphasizing that what is personal is always political. The girls and women in these poems are not mere objects; they speak, labor, and gaze back, with difficulty and consequence. The tropes are familiar, but in their animation they question and move in unexpected ways.
