From award-winning author, Kayla Lowe, comes a collection of poems inspired by the classic tale of The Phantom of the Opera. Originally published by Gaston Leroux in 1909 and then later transformed into the Broadway award-winning musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber, the tragic story of the disfigured musical genius who lived in the bowels of the Palais Garnier has captivated audiences for more than a century. Never before has anyone published a book of poetry pertaining exclusively to the love triangle that existed between the Phantom, his ingenue (Christine Daae), and her vicomte (Raoul de Chagny). This poetry collection consists of three chapbooks that explore these characters from a poetic standpoint. Divided into three parts, the collection features more than 100 poems that take readers on a dramatic journey to the past and into the infamous Phantom’s lair where passion, obsession, music, love, and artifice reign.

In the aftermath of best-selling Here, Bullet, Brian Turner deftly illuminates existence as both easily extinguishable and ultimately enduring. These prophetic, osmotic poems wage a daily battle for normalcy, seeking structure in the quotidian while grappling with the absence of forgetting.

In her seventh collection, Kocot strings one word per line into dark and dazzling recitals of her capacity for emotion.

Therese Estacion?survived a rare infection that nearly killed her, but not without losing both?her legs below the knees, several fingers, and reproductive organs.?Phantompains?is a visceral, imaginative?collection?exploring disability, grief and life by interweaving stark?memories with magic surrealism. Taking inspiration?from Filipino horror and folk tales, Estacion incorporates some Visayan language into her work, ?telling stories of mermen, gnomes and ogres that haunt childhood?stories of the?Philippines and, then, imaginings in her hospital room, where she spent months after her operations, recovering. There is a dreamlike?quality to these pieces, rivaled by depictions of pain, of amputation, of hysterectomy, of disability, ?and the realization of catastrophic change. Estacion says she?wrote these poems out of necessity: an essential task to deal with the trauma?of hospitalization and what followed. Now, they are demonstrations of?the power?of our imaginations to provide catharsis, preserve memory, rebel and even to find?self-love.

Poetry. "PHANTOM CAMERA searches for ways to escape the traps of autobiographical self-absorption while retaining the warmth and energy of personal narrative. Bolina's speakers are often melancholy and estranged, yet charmingly ironic about their estrangement. Drama--both funny and touching-arises from their efforts to stay safe while longing for human connection."--Mark Halliday
