The Magic Border: Poetry and Fragments from My Soft Machine will be published on September 12 and arrives after Parks inked a book deal with Harper Collins.
The collection features 20 original poems and exclusive photography alongside the complete lyrics to her latest album, My Soft Machine.

"It is about wading into the saltwater of your own body, capillaries bursting, eyes brimming, unmoored.
This collection is the fruit of that inner probing. It is a tangled mass of everything that has made me angry or giddy or low or impossibly happy to be alive. It has taken me almost twenty-three years to share my poetry beyond a few trusted friends.
Poetry was my place, my little clearing in the forest, where I could quietly put everything I was holding. I’m not sure what gave me the courage to open up that space to you but here I am, doing it." The announcement of The Magic Border follows the May release of Parks' second album, My Soft Machine. Last month she appeared on The FADER Interview podcast to discuss the themes and cinematic influences on the record.

Once upon a time in New York City, the three shopping havens for those in the know were referred to, in the words of Blair Waldorf, “the three B’s”: Bendel’s, Barneys and Bloomingdale’s. Bendel’s shuttered after 123 years in 2018. Next came the Hollywood-adored Barney’s, who closed its doors in 2020. Now, the last old-school, luxury retailer standing is Bloomingdale’s — and one more bold-faced “B” to revel in its glory: Barbie.

On June 20, the retailer announced a series of Barbie-themed exclusive products, collaborations and pop-up shops ahead of the film’s anticipated release on July 21.
