A beautiful new book from Magda Kapa, now in pre-order!

We're delighted to announce the forthcoming publication of Losing Touch, by Magda Kapa - her second book with Phoenicia. It's available for pre-ordering now, directly from the publisher, and should begin shipping in early August, when it will also become available via Amazon in various countries.

In Losing Touch we find a series of ten-line poems, written between March 2020 and the end of February 2021. They are about living during the pandemic, but they are not about the pandemic in a descriptive or overt sense. By regularly condensing her thoughts and emotions while also chronicling the passage of seasons and her own individual life, Magda Kapa has expressed with poignancy, sensitivity, and yes, even humor, what so many of us have experienced during this time. The poets George Szirtes and Mariadonata Villa have both praised this book; please visit the web page to read their comments, find a full description,  and ordering information.

This beautiful edition is printed on high-quality cream paper, and includes twelve drawings by Elizabeth Adams, most of which were created during the same months when Magda's poems were written.
