J¯RGEN LETH is one of Denmark's foremost modern poets and a leading international filmmaker. Poems and films: two sides of his extensive ouevre, intricately interwoven. Films like The Perfect Human, playfully revived by Leth and enfant terrible countryman Lars von Trier in the irresistible The Five Obstructions. Films like Leth's latest (of forty-three), Erotic Man, recently premiered to rave reviews and walk-outs at the Toronto Film Festival. Watch the poem. Read the film. Leth was doing intertextuality almost before they called it anything. Trivial Everyday Things is a collection of Leth's poems spanning some forty years, selected and translated with exquisite restraint by Martin Aitken. It is, astonishingly, the first book-length collection of Leth's poetry to appear in English. | Trivial Everyday Things by Jørgen Leth, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
