Book Synopsis The Undressing: Poems by : Li-Young Lee
Download or read book The Undressing: Poems written by Li-Young Lee and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2018-02-20 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Immediate, sensual, unrelentingly intense.” —NPR A breathtaking volume about the violence of desire and the peace of love from celebrated poet Li-Young Lee, The Undressing is a tonic for spiritual anemia; it attempts to uncover things hidden since the dawn of the world. Short of achieving that end, these mysterious, unassuming poems investigate the human violence and dispossession increasingly prevalent around the world, and the horrors the poet grew up with as a child of refugees. Lee draws from disparate sources including the Old Testament, the Dao De Jing, and the music of the Wu-Tang Clan. While the ostensive subjects of these layered, impassioned poems are wide-ranging, their driving engine is a burning need to understand our collective human mission.

Book Synopsis Breathing for Clouds by : Christopher Reilley
Download or read book Breathing for Clouds written by Christopher Reilley and published by Big Table Publishing Company. This book was released on 2014-09-06 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christopher Reilley's latest collection, Breathing for Clouds, has an emotional and architectural grandeur built page after page, written in many shapes, moods and even styles. In "A Digital Voice," Reilley writes, "I speak in puddles/but I write in oceans." Everything in this book is big, "like an old dozing elephant," embracing not only the whole of human emotion - love of child, of woman, of abuser, sadness, rage - but crossing literary genres, too, with the gritty noir prose pieces "Tales from the Grand Cafe," the poignant "An Open Letter to my Daughters," and of course, "Sabbath in Paradise." Breathing for Clouds does not look away or let up - ever. In its epic scope, in its muscularity of language, Reilley states, "In my greed, I offer you all I have." Who dares offer themselves like this? Jennifer Colella Martelli, Apostrophe Christopher Reilley deftly draws the reader from sentiment to the heartbreak of human folly. The sweetness of his poems and prose for his daughters, "Open Letter..." and the wistful "Pick Me A Winner" contrast starkly with pieces that detail darker visions, like "The Grand Cafe" tales and poems of crumbling relationships. The yearning "Danger Days" artfully applies middle age sensibility to reflections of youthful adventures. With wit, wry turn of the rhyme, and keen instinct, Breathing for Clouds invites us to view modern life through Reilley's lens. Richard Fox, Time Bomb ..".the Chuck Norris of poetry." Catherine Thorpe, In a Celadine World In Breathing for Clouds, Christopher Reilley (Poet Laureate of Dedham, Ma.) walks us on a tightrope, brings us to the edge of a tall building, and places us on the brink of life-changing decisions. His poems hit us universally as we are all on the verge, tittering above our changing situations. Do we choose to take action or to not take action and continue to sink? Check it out!

Book Synopsis The Whimsical Breathing of Clouds: Poems on Nature and Aging by : Dave Gigliotti
Download or read book The Whimsical Breathing of Clouds: Poems on Nature and Aging written by Dave Gigliotti and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book of original poems is probably different from others you may have read. I have a passion for both the literary and visual arts, and have decided to combine the two forms in this piece of work. I find that they work well together, and my intention is that the occasional images will add context and allow a deeper understanding of the poems they are associated with. By writing and sharing a poem, an author opens a window allowing the reader a view into their life and way of thinking. Including a few images in this work is a way for me to open an additional window that offers another vantage point from which to look inside and consider the poems; to see what I saw. Please leave a review of this book, and let me know if you find that the images enhance your reading experience. The natural world has always been a source of wonder and inspiration for me. It has sunk its roots into these pages, and I hope you will sense the flowing of rivers and the changing of seasons as you read through them.
Book Synopsis Breathing Aesthetics by : Jean-Thomas Tremblay
Download or read book Breathing Aesthetics written by Jean-Thomas Tremblay and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-29 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Breathing Aesthetics Jean-Thomas Tremblay argues that difficult breathing indexes the uneven distribution of risk in a contemporary era marked by the increasing contamination, weaponization, and monetization of air. Tremblay shows how biopolitical and necropolitical forces tied to the continuation of extractive capitalism, imperialism, and structural racism are embodied and experienced through respiration. They identify responses to the crisis in breathing in aesthetic practices ranging from the film work of Cuban American artist Ana Mendieta to the disability diaries of Bob Flanagan, to the Black queer speculative fiction of Renee Gladman. In readings of these and other minoritarian works of experimental film, endurance performance, ecopoetics, and cinema-vérité, Tremblay contends that articulations of survival now depend on the management and dispersal of respiratory hazards. In so doing, they reveal how an aesthetic attention to breathing generates historically, culturally, and environmentally situated tactics and strategies for living under precarity.

In the tumult of our contemporary moment, poetry has emerged as an inviting, consoling outlet with a unique power to move and connect us, to inspire fury, tears, joy, laughter, and surprise.

Through these wide-ranging poems, Ó Tuama guides us on an inspiring journey to reckon with self-acceptance, history, independence, parenthood, identity, joy, and resilience.
