A lyrical new volume from a poet “beyond the achievement of all but a double handful of living American poets” (Harold Bloom). With irony, in mourning tinged with eros, one of our most extraordinary poets blends the personal and the political to meditate on damage, aging, and injustice. The poems in So Forth surge back in memory, pondering guilt and forgiveness. Consciousness flows from singular to plural; identity in these poems does a round dance with other personae, with formidable women artists of the past in the powerful sequence “Legende of Good Women,” with pre-Socratic philosophers, and with lovers, children, and strangers—the strangest of whom is the face in the mirror. In response to griefs both historical and contemporary, So Forth contemplates the quest for the holy and traditions of the sacred.

With Death and So Forth, esteemed writer and editor Gordon Lish returns with a new book of scintillating short fiction.

Death and So Forth collects a number of Lish's acclaimed stories and introduces eight new fictions, including a tribute to Denis Johnson and so many others lost in the course of a long life. Brilliant and sharp-eyed, this is a treasure for fans of Gordon Lish, new and lifelong.

As multi-faceted as the artist herself, this stunningly illustrated book on Sophie Calle’s recent installations displays her genius for entwining personal experience with universal truth. Throughout her career, the photographer and installation artist Sophie Calle has been creating tableaux that recreate her personal journeys. Projects from the past 10 years are explored in this magnificently illustrated volume. Following on the heels of Calle’s highly acclaimed Did You See Me? this new book offers numerous images of Calle’s most recent works. Among the projects included are "The Phone Booth, Garigiliano Bridge," which involved a public phone that Calle called at random to initiate conversations with strangers; "Take Care of Yourself," which documents the interpretations of more than 100 women of a breakup note Calle received from a former lover; "The North Pole," a touching tribute to the artist’s mother that imagines her realizing a lifelong dream; and the latest iteration of "What do You See," which was created in response to one of the most brazen art heists of all time, at Boston’s Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum. Many ongoing series are also illustrated here, including "Unfinished," "Herein Lie Secrets," and "Photos without Stories." Calle’s many fans will discover how the artist continues to examine the boundaries of public and private life in ways that surprise, engage, and inspire.
