April is #NationalPoetryMonth , a time to celebrate poets and their craft. Today I want to recognize @nmaidt Naja Marie Aidt’s “Carl’s Book” has become a part of my life since I read it. Don’t let April go without reading one or two poetry books!

Naja Marie Aidt har gæstet @Deadline_dr for at fortælle om sin nye roman ØVELSER I MØRKE. En bog, der handler om transformationskraften i et traume, og hvordan et kvindeliv forandres af at gennemgå overgangsalderen. Se hele interviewet her: bit.ly/3wnNh3e

This novel by @nmaidt is one of the best books I've ever translated. I will forever sing its praises. This STARRED review from @PublishersWkly says it all. buff.ly/41cIEo0

This! 🧡💚💙

We published @nmaidt's ode to nature and childhood (tr. Susanna Nied) in our 2015 New Danish Poetry issue—now, it’s part of the @POETSorg Poem-a-Day series, accompanied by audio of Aidt reading her work. buff.ly/3ZF5tj7

Yesterday @ScribePedersen and @nmaidt touched my heart, made me laugh from deep in my belly, and brought tears to my eyes with their beautiful thoughts on grief, loss, friendship, writing, and life. Thank you for having us, @festofauthors! (2nd pic is my attempt at modeling. 😅)

Plunge into this Danish fiction feature with a powerful excerpt from @nmaidt's "Rock Paper Scissors!" Says translator @kesemmel, the book is "a taut wire thrumming with electricity from the very first page." We'd have to agree! bit.ly/3Jo3vuM
