• The first book in the inaugural series Malinda A.
• Markham Memorial Translation Prize, Late to the House of Words: Selected Poems of Gemma Gorga brings together in one volume poems from six of this contemporary Catalan poet's books, introduced, selected, and translated by the award-winning American poet and translator Sharon Dolin.
• In this bilingual edition, readers will become acquainted with the breadth of Gorga's work in lineated verse, which spans more than twenty years.
• Readers of her book of prose poems, Book of Minutes, also translated by Dolin, will find all of Gorga's preoccupations--with language, with metaphysics, with poetry's dance between word and silence--expanded here in poems that are as limpid yet intricate as the work of Jane Hirshfield.
• Translated from Catalan, a European language that has a long history of fraught political implications for those who use it, this is a necessary book.
