Chef-d’œuvre épique du XVIIe siècle, Le Paradis Perdu de John Milton déploie, en vers amples et solennels, une méditation vertigineuse sur la tentation, le péché et la rédemption.

Poème épique de l’Antiquité, L’Odyssée s’ouvre par l’invocation à la Muse et chante les maux innombrables du divin Ulysse, en proie aux longues épreuves du retour depuis la ville sacrée de Troie. Aux prises avec la faveur et la colère des dieux, il lutte pour sa vie et pour celle de ses compagnons—les imprudents dont l’offense faite aux génisses saintes du Soleil leur ravit le jour du retour.

À l’arrière-saison, un chevalier quitte sa maison, seul, en proie aux pensées. La nature se défait—feuilles, fleurs, odeurs—tout tend à froideur et à neige. À l’écoute d’un propos de vérité, il mesure l’enfance passée, la jeunesse dépensée, l’honneur et la grâce divine. Composé à l’ombre d’un deuil—la mort du duc de Bourgogne, trépassé devant Nancy en Lorraine—ce poème méditatif interroge la gloire qui s’éteint, la vanité des choses et la constance des âmes. Une élégie chevaleresque, grave et sobre, où le temps et la mémoire conduisent vers une ferme résolution.

Cyclists 'looking at each other' during a race is generally taken by commentators to be a portent of disaster. But why? Bike-racers, after all, are mostly young and easy on the eye. This epic recycling of the Orpheus myth unearths the dark legend behind the mystery of mutual admiration and shows why it is that, since the very ancient of days, riders have been encouraged, on pain of defeat (or worse), to keep their eyes modestly lowered and forwardly directed. And it does it in rhyming couplets.

In the land of Woodashoodakooda, the Woodashoodakoodans plan their work and work their plan eight days a week. There’s no time for fun and games. The good news is they have friendly, helpful robots to lighten their load. The bad news is that things don't always go as planned. As Woodashoodakooda dangles on the edge of darkness and destruction, the robots lead them on a wild goose chase down an oddly familiar rabbit hole.
