The flexibility of poetry - despite its apparent deep subjectivity - seems endless and the poetry of terror and fantasy is a great example of this. The visionary focus, the power of synesthesia, the stylized structure of the verses, all these elements of horror poetry, a strange fruit of metaphysical poetry, seem to expand the already exhausted possibilities of the horror narrative. In this sense, Wade German can be considered one of the most extraordinary authors of this still little explored territory of poetry. Thus, Raphus Press proudly presents the bilingual edition (Portuguese and English) of German's poetry, entitled Incantations. A toxic volume of horror poetry and occultism, which often comes much closer to Baudelaire than Lovecraft.
This magnificent volume of strange poetry would be deserves a great facade: a hardcover edition printed on the Forma Certa printshop with great papers and excellent print quality.
