DOWNLOAD EBOOKPoetry. "'The exhausted object have no body of work," says one poem in Kimberly Alidio's AFTER PROJECTS THE RESOUND. But that's just surface. Ever lurking and in ALL CAPS even are potential poems that would affirm, 'LOL AGENCY AND THE COURAGE TO SPEAK.' From the 'howling on YouTube' to 'Igorots at St. Louis' to the 'new sardonic' to 'a heart hit twice by shrapnel,' the poems skitter over, infiltrate, radiate, revolt from, and apply 'karaoke studies' to interrogate both history and contemporary culture, especially cracks and what lurks within them. These poems are attuned to as many zeitgeists as reveal themselves. From Alidio's dissecting eyes and focused hands--the 'I [who] can sense the space around objects in the room because I'm often unnoticed'--the Filipino trait of Kapwa (interconnectedness) enables poems to arise and they bespeak: 'This is exactly what gentleness is // dragging everything up whole--.'" --Eileen R. Tabios "The structure of this book and its embedded themes are angled through Alidio's queer, Filipina perspective; while elevated through the nature of the found language of the project, her clear and independent voice--whether tackling expression of a corruptively perceived identity, longing for the presence in the everyday of intimacy, understanding intention in today's landscape of technology, or appreciating the struggle of objectification through narrative--offers an extraordinary sensibility in a world of chaos."--Greg Bem, Rain Taxi

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe paleontologist and professor of anatomy who co-discovered Tiktaalik, the “fish with hands,” tells a “compelling scientific adventure story that will change forever how you understand what it means to be human” (Oliver Sacks). By examining fossils and DNA, he shows us that our hands actually resemble fish fins, our heads are organized like long-extinct jawless fish, and major parts of our genomes look and function like those of worms and bacteria. Your Inner Fish makes us look at ourselves and our world in an illuminating new light. This is science writing at its finest—enlightening, accessible and told with irresistible enthusiasm.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKPoetry. Introduction by Angela Hume. DEPOSITION | DISPOSESSION: CLIMATE CHANGE IN THE SUNDARBANS, the posthumously published work by Marthe Reed, responds to the ecological crises of the Sundarbans of south Bangladesh and India. The work "talks back" to climate denialism, questioning Reed's own and the United States' role in climate change and its collateral damage. Interrogative, defiant, elegiac, the writing speaks to a realm in crisis--the fragility of a landscape, its human and other-than-human inhabitants, and the Sundarbans islands and archipelagos rapidly being swallowed by rising sea levels. Under such pressures, how do the inhabitants--and we who live elsewhere on the earth--respond? Reed does so by adopting a poetic method and collage technique that draws on a diverse set of resources. The completed book-length poem fuses together personal anecdotes and collected notes ranging in origin from scientific publications, the IPCC Synthesis Report, research on native plant and animal species, to discussions of cultural figures of the region, addresses to ethics and climate change boards, and literary texts such as The Hungry Tide by Amitav Ghosh, Travels In The Mugal Empire by François Bernier, and Schizophrene by Bhanu Kapil.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKParis Review Staff Pick A Book Riot Must-Read Poetry Collection Soft Science explores queer, Asian American femininity. A series of Turing Test-inspired poems grounds its exploration of questions not just of identity, but of consciousness—how to be tender and feeling and still survive a violent world filled with artificial intelligence and automation. We are dropped straight into the tangled intersections of technology, violence, erasure, agency, gender, and loneliness. "Choi creates an exhilarating matrix of poetry, science, and technology." —Publishers Weekly "Franny Choi combines technology and poetry to stunning effect." –BUSTLE “…these beautiful, fractal-like poems are meditations on identity and autonomy and offer consciousness-expanding forays into topics like violence and gender, love and isolation.” –NYLON
