In Bycatch, a new collection by the Ted Hughes Prize shortlisted-poet Caroline Smith, the poems ask where personhood is when memory and language are gone. They capture the faltering years of a life gradually scraped bare by the deep-sea trawler of dementia yet find amongst the isolation and sadness, moments also of clarity, epiphany and love.Whilst these poems chart deep waters, they remind us also of the enduring and miraculous bond between those who have known each other for a lifetime. With grace and often with humour, Smith unravels the intricate nature of care, the symbiosis of family, and ultimately the sense of self held in the memories and personal histories of her own parents. It is in the swell of the wave, as ageing and loss threaten to engulf even the words, these extraordinary poems remain tender, unforgettable and salt-sharp.

Em "O que vem depois", novo livro de contos do escritor Gledson Sousa, o leitor é convidado a mergulhar em narrativas que exploram complexidades em tempos de incerteza, no confinamento, na loucura, no fim do mundo, e na busca por redenço em meio ao caos. Escritos entre 2020 e 2023, e com prefacio de Wilson Alves-Bezerra, os contos nascem das angustias e reflexes provocadas pela pandemia, mas vo alem, investigando o poder misterioso da literatura de capturar e ate antecipar eventos da vida real. Cada historia se desenrola em um universo carregado de tenso, onde os personagens enfrentam seus demonios interiores e as forças externas que os confinam. Os contos "A conversa" e "A penso de dona Bartira" examinam o aprisionamento mental e emocional, enquanto "Na arca" revisita o mito do diluvio, questionando as raizes do mal. No entanto, Gledson no se restringe a um tom sombrio. Ao fim, "A viagem de Karen e Muellen Duellen" abre as portas para uma libertaço sensorial, apontando para um horizonte de amor e liberdade quase pos-apocaliptico. "O que vem depois" no e apenas uma reflexo sobre o que se segue a um periodo de crise e uma obra que, em sua propria criaço, antecipa e dialoga com os desafios do presente. Atraves de uma escrita que evoca Poe e Borges, Gledson flerta com a sincronicidade e o poder da palavra, e nos lembra que a literatura, assim como a vida, esta repleta de misterios e, por vezes, eles sequer chegaro a nos ser revelados.

When the leaves burn gold, Fairborne prepares for war.The long summer has ended, and the fires on the horizon are no longer distant.At Fairborne Estate, harvest brings not celebration, but the first quiet tremors of war.When news of the princes death spreads through the valley, duty and faith begin to fracture. Lords weigh loyalty against survival. Servants whisper of omens in the smoke. And between them all, life at Fairborne goes on candles lit, bread baked, swords forged as the world around them prepares to burn.In Year 417 Autumn, the third volume of the Fairborne Chronicles, Eli Taff Jr. returns to his world of quiet heroism and creeping dread with ten tales told in exactly 500 words each. Every story is a glimpse into lives suspended between peace and ruin from a tutors lesson beneath the glasshouse to the blackening of the river that feeds the mines.Here, epic fantasy finds its truth not in battlefields, but in the small mercies and unspoken fears of those waiting for history to arrive at their door.Told with precision, beauty, and restraint, Year 417 Autumn captures the fragile grace of a world at the turning of the year when faith falters, courage deepens, and the first winds of winter begin to howl.
