The audacity to know that these are poems. How to fall in love with contemporary poetry

A poetic guide from A to Z – starting with classic rhymes of the 18th century and ending with ultra-modern genres. This illustrated edition includes diagrams, morphological and philological analyses of poems. Its author, Kirill Markov, is the curator of the Moscow «Library of Poetry» and an active poet who shares experiences from his own practice, examples, and reflections on more than 20 new directions in lyric poetry. Discover why everything begins with one letter, how word and form mutually influence each other, and how mistakes and experiments create a dialogue with the world.
