The women in Allison Adair’s debut collection—luminous and electric from the first line to the last—live in places that have been excavated for gold and precious ores. They understand the nature of being hollowed out, of being “the planet’s stone / core as it tries to carve out one secret place and fails.” And so, as these poems take us from the midst of the Civil War to our current era, they chart fairy tales that are at once unsettling and painfully familiar, never forgetting that cruelty compels us to search for tenderness.

Fever of Unknown Origin opens at a remote crossroads, where the speaker considers the intersection of history, beauty, and destruction: “the past / is paper / and the present, a match . . .” What follows is an urgent tour of landscapes—environmental, political, and personal—that reframes our perception of modern America and leads the listener into “An empire of rags and photons” where we must look to the past to clarify our futures.

Denise Levertov has called the poet Pattiann Rogers “a visionary of reality, perceiving the material world with such intensity of response that impulse, intention, meaning, interconnections beyond the skin of appearance are revealed.” The consistent theme In Flickering, her new collection, is the very breadth and prodigiousness of the universe itself. These wise poems, many inspired by various kinds of flickering actions in plants, animals, and natural processes, move nimbly between inner and outer worlds.

Der Taucher ist eine 1797 vom deutschen Dichter Friedrich Schiller im Balladenjahr verfasste Ballade. Sie beschreibt den Wagemut eines Edelknaben, der sich nach Aufforderung seines Königs in einen Gezeitenstrudel stürzt, um einen vom König hinein geworfenen goldenen Becher wieder zu holen. Es gelingt, und er berichtet davon (Es freue sich, wer da atmet im rosichten Licht. / Doch der Mensch versuche die Götter nicht…). Die Hybris des Königs, der es ein zweites Mal sehen will und seine Tochter dafür gebe, steckt auch den Jüngling an, und er versucht es abermals, ohne Wiederkehr.

Die vier Weltalter: Wohl perlet im Glase der purpurne Wein, Wohl glänzen die Augen der Gäste; Es zeigt sich der Sänger, er tritt herein, Zu dem Guten bringt der das Beste; Denn ohne die Leier im himmlischen Saal, Ist die Freude gemein auch beim Nektarmahl.
