Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Epipremnum aureum, devil's ivy, or (somewhat erroneously) pothos is not special. It is not symbolically useful, it is not rare, it is not hard to grow or care for. But in the aftermath of unexpected death, an impossible-to-kill houseplant might have something to say about keeping going.In Pothos, Campbell traces a polyvocal narrative of loss, absent presence, and queer homemaking through a poetics of attention and an engagement with texts, art, music, and the occasional hologram. Hovering somewhere between memoir, prose poetry and essay, Pothos examines the condition of being alternately infuriated, bored, and overwhelmed by grief - its mutability, its opacity, its refusals. It is a raw and nebulous exploration of mourning, care and domesticity, and the way in which the small background sentience of plants can (maybe) tell us something about our own growth.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A revelatory new collection of work by V. R. "Bunny" Lang, an eccentric, thrilling American poet revived from oblivion. The collection includes work from across Lang's inimitable career, including many never-before-published poems.V. R. "Bunny" Lang was the best friend of Frank O'Hara and a central figure in the lively Harvard literary scene of the early 1950s, out of which such very different writers as John Ashbery, Alison Lurie, Edward Gorey, and Robert Creeley emerged. Lang's work was startling, strange, playful, caustic, alarming, and beautiful, with a theatrical turn that grew out of her involvement with the Poets' Theatre. The Miraculous Season, edited by the scholar and writer Rosa Campbell, offers a new, expanded gathering of Lang's poetry, including previously unpublished work drawn from her archives. Campbell's introduction tells the story of Lang's fascinating life and her early death, making it clear how and why her work belongs in the canon of twentieth-century American poetry.

Paperback. Condition: New. A Poetry Book Society Spring Special Commendation 2024. In the archives of the Houghton Library at Harvard blazes the incandescent work of V.R. 'Bunny' Lang (1924-56), the American poet and playwright whose name has been all but erased from literary history. The fiery nerve centre of the literary scene around mid-century Harvard, and best friend of the iconic New York School poet Frank O'Hara - who referred to her as 'one of our finest poets' - Lang herself has languished in the shadows of American poetry for too long.This book brings into print some of Lang's most startling, strange, and beautiful poetry, much of which has never been published before, drawing her into the spotlight at last. It includes an editor's introduction by scholar and writer Rosa Campbell, on Lang's fascinating and often hilariously eccentric life, devastatingly early death, and her rightful place in the canon of twentieth-century American poetry. The Miraculous Season, published in Lang's centenary year, is a revelation of the true breadth and brilliance of her poetry, rediscovered and made available in print for the first time since 1975.…

Hardback. Condition: Good. Come and meet Shere Hite-the feminist hero whose notorious work revolutionized how we think about sex, marriage, and the female orgasm. Despite being one of the leading thinkers of the second wave feminist movement, today Shere Hite is little known, little written about, and, unsurprisingly, little read. Her groundbreaking book, The Hite Report, was the first feminist exploration of the link between sex and male power. It sold millions of copies when first published in 1976 and revolutionized the way people thought about marriage and the female orgasm. How, then, did it, and Hite, disappear from public consciousness? Using original research material and sharp cultural analysis, Rosa Campbell explores Hite's complicated life and literary legacy. Campbell expands on Hite's ideas about sex - namely, that sex is sexist - and tracks Hite through her fraught childhood, her struggles working in the porn industry, and her eventual cancellation by the far-right Evangelical movement. All the while, Campbell holds Hite and The Hite Report to account for their own failings and absence of intersectionality. In a post-Dobbs, post-MeToo world, this book's examination of shifting ideological movements is essential to understanding both the current feminist movement, as well as how conservative, reactionary, counter-mobilization efforts can silence even the most successful of women. Contains 8 black and white vintage photos. …
