New from Acclaimed Israeli Poet Tal Nitzán

"Tal Nitzán's poetry thrills me with its double nature, at once passionate and sardonic. It's a pleasure to read a book of translations that have formal grace in English. It's the formal grace that enables a dual voice, compassionate and harsh, capable of being topical and inward, heartfelt and ironic." -Robert Pinsky

We're thrilled to present the latest title in ourRestless Poetry series:

At the End of Sleep, an anthology selected from the past decade of Israeli poet Tal Nitzán's work, finally gives one of Hebrew poetry's most powerful and acclaimed contemporary voices her English-language due. Nitzán brings her lucid, sharp, and often ferocious verse to bear on sexuality, personal struggle, war, power, and the Israeli condition.
