    Selected Poems, 1930-1988

    It was as a poet that Samuel Beckett launched himself in the little reviews of 1930s Paris, and as a poet that he ended his career. This new selection, from Whoroscope (1930) to 'what is the word' (1988), describes a lifetime's arc of writing. It was as a poet moreover that Beckett made his first breakthrough into writing in French, and the Selected Poems represents work in both languages, including the sequence of brief but highly crafted mirlitonnades, which did so much to usher in the style of his late prose, and come as close as anything he wrote to honouring the ambition to 'bore one hole after another in language, until what lurks behind it - be it something or nothing - begins to seep through.' Also included are several of Beckett's translations from contemporaries - Apollinaire, Eluard, Michaux, Montale - in versions which count among his own poetic achievements. It is edited by David Wheatley.

    (A 90-page True Crime Short with photographs) On April 1, 1984, Marvin Gaye--one of the world's most beloved singers--was gunned down by his own father.

    老麦的秋天

    早上九点多钟,变天了。先是太阳变黄了,光线薄薄的,再就是起风了,风从郊外过来,一路攻城掠地。马路两边的行道树,全往一个方向狂摆。树叶死鸟一般哗哗坠地,又和着地上的灰尘扬起来,一起直扑过来。老麦正上坎,因此他感受到了双重的压力。老麦的三轮车,堆得满满的。先是一张板,两张桌面那么大,横盖在车厢上。板下面码了一车厢的书报杂志。板上面压着两条钢筋焊的支架,担板用的。一张小马扎,一把靠背椅。另外还有一把硕大的“可口可乐”遮阳伞,颜色已经发白,撑开了能罩住一张床。除此而外,老麦的三轮车把上,还挂了另外两样物事:一把旧二胡,和一把崭新的,装在琴盒里的小提琴。
