Download or read book Sweet Machine written by Mark Doty and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mark Doty's last two award-winning collections of poetry, as well as his acclaimed memoir Heaven's Coast, used the devastation of AIDS as a lens through which to consider questions of loss, love and identity. The poems in Sweet Machine see the world from a new, hard-won perspective: A coming back to life, after so much death, a way of seeing the body's "sweet machine" not simply as a time bomb, but also as a vibrant, sensual, living thing. These poems are themselves "sweet machines"—lyrical, exuberant and joyous—and they mark yet another milestone in the extraordinary career of one of our most distinguished and accomplished poets.

Download or read book Bright Dead Things written by Ada Limón and published by Hachette UK. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Bright Dead Things buoyed me in this dismal year. I'm thankful for this collection, for its wisdom and generosity, for its insistence on holding tight to beauty even as we face disintegration and destruction.' Celeste Ng, author of Everything I Never Told You A book of bravado and introspection, of feminist swagger and harrowing loss, Bright Dead Things considers how we build our identities out of place and human contact - tracing in intimate detail the ways the speaker's sense of self both shifts and perseveres as she moves from New York City to rural Kentucky, loses a dear parent, ages past the capriciousness of youth and falls in love. In these extraordinary poems Ada Limón's heart becomes a 'huge beating genius machine' striving to embrace and understand the fullness of the present moment. 'I am beautiful. I am full of love. I am dying,' the poet writes. Building on the legacies of forebears such as Frank O'Hara, Sharon Olds and Mark Doty, Limón's work is consistently generous, accessible, and 'effortlessly lyrical' (New York Times) - though every observed moment feels complexly thought, felt and lived.
Book Synopsis The Miracle Machine by : Matthew Pennock
Download or read book The Miracle Machine written by Matthew Pennock and published by Gival Press. This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Gival Press Poetry Award "A 19th-century automaton and other museum exhibits narrate this collection of poems . . . . Uncanny, heart-wrenching, and beautifully crafted poems by an original voice." -Kirkus Reviews, August 5, 2020, starred review "Vast in scope, passionately imagined, and constructed with as much ingenuity as the famed contraption at its narrative's heart, Matthew Pennock's second book hints at serious ontological questions as it invents its hero's journey from automaton to autonomy. Like all contrivances that simulate human life, Pennock's synthetic boy compels us to interrogate our own materiality, and to ask, if we are all just portions of the twisting / stew of particles and light assembled by mechanical chance, then what puts the lonely in us? Packed with insight and wit and told by a congress of oddities-the narration travels back and forth in time and juggles various perspectives, including that of a trained seal, a fortune teller machine, and both halves of P.T. Barnum's bogus mermaid-The Miracle Machine is an irresistible, at times provocative, and often powerfully affecting book." -Timothy Donnelly, author of The Problem of the Many
Download or read book The Elvis Machine written by Kim Vodicka and published by . This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Elvis Machine is a book of poems inspired by living, loving, and hate-fucking in Memphis, Tennessee--a city still kissed with the 1950s. Forged in a dumpster fire of toxic Elvises, these poems are pornographic bad romances, psychedelic love dirges, and threnodies for sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll. They'll make you laugh off the pain as much as you'll cry, cringe, and feel exposed in this 'No Boys Allowed' clubhouse of feminine rage and healing. "Kim Vodicka is the sexier Stephen Wright of poetry, with incisive one-liners so sharp and mind-blowingly funny that you forget how hard you were laughing before you started crying, then started laughing again." -John Skipp, author of The Art of Horrible People "Vodicka's poetry is a seasick-sweet treasure trove of marvel. Her verses leave you yearning for the kind of love and life you know is bad for you, but you can't stop reading." -Elle Nash, author of Animals Eat Each Other "Here is the uncanny valley girl, the B-movie queen, Kim Vodicka, delivering a prize fight of the sexes in poetry where every line is a punch line. This book is the seminal display of misogyny's trauma, an unflinching exposé of toxic relationships, and an exquisitely honest portrayal of a woman's most intimate bits. Vodicka peels us to the core. This is what raw feels like." -Jeanette Powers, author of Dandylion Riot and founder of Stubborn Mule Press "The Elvis Machine is foaming at the mouth all over your pillow. Vodicka takes our balls and wears them like a teething necklace. Her wordplay is as bloody as it is brilliant. This is a love story dissected and displayed of its most vulnerable parts. Once again, she has managed to rock all my sensibilities." -Kelsey Marie Harris, author of The Jolly Queef

Book excerpt: Not Here is a flight plan for escape and a map for navigating home; a queer Vietnamese American body in confrontation with whiteness, trauma, family, and nostalgia; and a big beating heart of a book.
