Book Synopsis Urban Tumbleweed by : Harryette Mullen

Book excerpt: "Harryette Mullen is a magician of words, phrases, and songs . . . No voice in contemporary poetry is quite as original, cosmopolitan, witty, and tragic." —Susan Stewart, citation for the Academy of American Poets Fellowship Urban tumbleweed, some people call it, discarded plastic bag we see in every city blown down the street with vagrant wind. —from Urban Tumbleweed Urban Tumbleweed is the poet Harryette Mullen's exploration of spaces where the city and the natural world collide. Written out of a daily practice of walking, Mullen's stanzas adapt the traditional Japanese tanka, a poetic form suited for recording fleeting impressions, describing environmental transitions, and contemplating the human being's place in the natural world. But, as she writes in her preface, "What is natural about being human? What to make of a city dweller taking a ‘nature walk' in a public park while listening to a podcast with ear-bud headphones?"

Book Synopsis Diaries of a Young Poet by : Rainer Maria Rilke
Download or read book Diaries of a Young Poet written by Rainer Maria Rilke and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 1998-11-17 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the diaries [Rilke] kept from 1898 to 1900, now translated for the first time . . . the overall impression is that of a genius just coming into his own powers."—Boston Phoenix In April 1898 Rainer Maria Rilke, not yet twenty-three, began a diary of his Florence visit. It was to record, in the form of an imaginary dialogue with his mentor and then-lover, Lou Andreas-Salome, his firsthand experiences of early Renaissance art. The project quickly expanded to include not only thoughts on life, history, and artistic genius, but also unguarded moments of revulsion, self-doubt, and manic expectation. The result is an intimate glimpse into the young Rilke, already experimenting brilliantly with language and metaphor. "For the lover of Rilke, this superb translation of the poet's early diaries will be a watershed. Through Edward Snow's and Michael Winkler's brilliantly supple and faithful translation . . . a new and more balanced picture of Rilke will emerge."—Ralph Freedman
Download or read book Insomnia Diary written by Bob Hicok and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2012-02-10 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Hicok's poems are often edgy, brazen, and funny. They’re just as likely to be soulful, reflective, and provocative. Usually at the same time. As Hicok builds toward the punchline of a poem set up with his characteristic wit, he zigs into seriousness. A thoughtful meditation that builds to a moment of epiphany zags into comedy. Hicok's fluid ability to shift moods, the richness of his visual palette, and his idiosyncratic use of language fill the pages of Insomnia Diary. The fourth collection of poetry from this former automotive die designer delivers more of the cunning brilliance that has become Hicok's hallmark.

Book Synopsis Poetry Against All by : Johannes Göransson
Download or read book Poetry Against All written by Johannes Göransson and published by . This book was released on 2020-06-02 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literary Nonfiction. "This slim journal contains multitudes. It's a compulsively readable account of returning to a childhood home, a provocative meditation on artists such as Susan Sontag, Francesca Woodman, and Andrei Tarkovsky, and a radical reexamination of concepts like ruin porn, tourism, and translation. But mostly it's an urgent manifesto. 'Poetry is obscene, ' Göransson writes. 'But there are those who want to maintain the illusion that it is good for us.' This necessary book strips away the various illusions that have obscured poetry's truest values. Göransson concludes: 'This is written without hope.' But paradoxically, POETRY AGAINST ALL offers just that."--Jeff Jackson "Moralists who find themselves clutching their pearls about this book of noir perversions should read less literally and see that Göransson's POETRY AGAINST ALL--for all its anti-libidinous interrogations of pornography, the Holocaust, and cadavers--concerns some of the most relatably humanist emotions of all: grief, the meaning of home, and the protectiveness one has about one's children. Göransson imagines pornography as the body at the edge of otherness, at once alluring and perverse, which is not unlike the lens through which he conceives his own role as immigrant, the contaminant in our body politic, alive to the sheer horror of America but never quite able to go home himself."--Ken Chen
Book Synopsis Diary of a Somebody by : Brian Bilston
Download or read book Diary of a Somebody written by Brian Bilston and published by Picador. This book was released on 2019-06-11 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s January 1st and Brian Bilston is convinced that this year his New Year’s resolution will change his life. Every day for a year, he will write a poem. It’s quite simple. Brian’s life certainly needs improving. His ex-wife has taken up with a new man, a motivational speaker and indefatigable charity fundraiser to boot; he seems to constantly disappoint his long-suffering son; and at work he is drowning in a sea of spreadsheets and management jargon. So poetry will be his salvation. But there is an obstacle in the form of Toby Salt, his arch nemesis at Poetry Club and rival suitor to Liz, Brian’s new poetic inspiration. When Toby goes missing, just after the announcement of the publication of his first collection, This Bridge No Hands Shall Cleave, Brian becomes the number one suspect. If he is to regain his reputation and to have a chance of winning Liz, he must find out what has happened to Toby before it is too late. Part tender love story, part murder mystery, part coruscating description of a wasted life, and interspersed with some of the funniest poems about the mundane and the profound, Diary of a Somebody is the most original novel you will read this or any year.

Download or read book Firebrand written by Arya Adake and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-22 with total page 75 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My ten year old self would be losing her mind right now. For me, this whole process has been a dream for so long, a dream that began years ago with a diary and some ideas. Now, five years later, stuck at home with more time than I've had in years, I'm publishing my first book. My words finally get to see the world. For me, Firebrand isn't just a collection of poetry; it's the culmination of five years of dreaming, five years of feeling, five years of writing. The poems come straight from my diary, and are grouped into four sections: Love, Turmoil, Nature, and Hope, each one meant to display a different facet of poetry as it relates to my life. For me, Firebrand is a dream, a love letter, and a vent bound together by words and rhyme. I would be honored to hear what Firebrand is to you.

Book Synopsis Diary Poems and Story Teller's Rhymes by : Sonjoy Dutta-Roy
Download or read book Diary Poems and Story Teller's Rhymes written by Sonjoy Dutta-Roy and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2012-08-03 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diary Poems and Story Tellers Rhymes continues two traditions of poetry into contemporary times: (a) the oral tradition where fables, parables, and myths are narrated in rhymed verse, both for instruction and entertainment; (b) the introspective and reflective written tradition where deep personal concerns emerge in heightened rhythm and rhyme, through images, metaphors, and symbols. This book blends these two traditions, maintaining a distinction all the time. Some of the fables are originally created out of contemporary issues. “Poach Tantra” takes up the problem of poaching through an animal fable in the Panchtantra tradition. Others like “The Snake Story,” “The Comet Avatar,” and the “Katha Serial Saga” (a contemporary retake on the frame story of Kathasaritasagar) are remakes of ancient myths to suit the contemporary times. The Diary Poems are actually diary poems preserved through a period of intense personal crisis and transition. Together with the Story Tellers Rhymes, they try to juxtapose the complex and intricate relationship between the objective and the subjective worlds in which we simultaneously exist. For example, “Curtain Calls” is a meditation after the death of the poet’s parents in quick succession in 2010. “Poach Tantra” that follows is a grandfather’s tale to a granddaughter from an earlier date. At the same time, one sincerely hopes that they are able to continue into these troubled contemporary times, and in an age dominated by prose and reason, the wonder and beauty and possibilities of poetry as narrative and poetry as introspection.
