By Anne Carson

WINNER OF THE 2026 NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE

The first collection of poems by the winner of the 2026 Nobel Prize for Literature.

Short Talks is a series of profound, elegiac prose poems that touch on subjects like travel, animals, philosophy, and art, delivered with Anne Carson's now-signature--and singular--heart and wit.
