Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A SPIN, Electric Literature, Book Riot, and The Catholic Post Best Poetry Collection of 2022 Finalist for the RSL Ondaatje Prize & Forward Prize for Best First Collection A Lit Hub Most Anticipated Book of the Year A Chicago Review of Books Best Book of the Month Magnolia, Nina Mingya Powles’ exquisite debut poetry collection, pushes the borders of languages and poetic forms to examine memories, myths, and the experiences of a mixed-race girlhood. From Aotearoa to London, from Shanghai to New York City, these poems journey across shifting, luminescent cities in search of connection: through pop culture, through food, through vivid colors. Scenes from Mulan, Blade Runner, and In the Mood for Love braid together with silken tofu and freshly steamed baozi. At the heart of the collection is “Field notes on a downpour,” a lyrical sequence that questions the limits of translation and our ability to understand one another. Alone, the speaker recognizes that “certain languages contain more kinds of rain than others, and I have eaten them all." Full of hunger and longing for a home that can embrace a person’s complexities, Magnolia draws on every sense to arrive at profound, yet intimate insights, and introduces readers to a brilliant new voice in poetry.

Book excerpt: Says Patricia J. Machmiller, Artist and Poet, "At 93 Mary Lou Taylor, body frail, eyesight blurred-in her opening poem she says "I live in sfumato"-is nonetheless able to summon her unrelenting creative power. In this book, Still, the Magnolia, she examines with clarity the child that she was, the man that she married, the children she bore, the house that became a home, the friends she made, the life that she lived. She shines a light into her past with unsparing truthfulness, yet her touch is tender. It heals. It says I've known love and pain and loss and wonder and it's all good."

Book excerpt: MacNolia Cox won the Akron District Spelling Bee, and at the age of 13 she became the first African American to reach the final round of the national competition. The Southern judges, it is thought, kept her from winning by presenting a word not on the official list. The word that tripped MacNolia, ironically, was "nemesis." When she died 40 years later, the girl who "was almost/ The national spelling champ" had become a cleaning woman, a grandmother, and "the best damn maid in town." Cox's ambition and her later frustration find incisive shape in this remarkably varied meditation on ambition, racism, discouragement and ennui, where successive pages can bring to mind a handbook of poetic forms (a double sestina, Japanese-inspired syllabics, a blues ghazal and prose poems based on definitions of prepositions), Ann Carson's "TV Men" poems, Rita Dove's Thomas and Beulah and the documentary film Spellbound. Jordan (Rise) begins in Cox's later life, giving voice to her husband, John Montiere, at "The Moment Before He Asks MacNolia Out on a Date," then to MacNolia herself when in 1970 her son dies just after his return from Vietnam. As counterpoints, Jordan intersperses poems about African-Americans who won more lasting public acclaim, among them Richard Pryor, Josephine Baker and the great labor organizer and orator A. Philip Randolph. Jordan's most quotable poems, however, return to the voice of the 13-year-old speller, who "learned the word chiaroscuro/ By rolling it on my tongue// Like cotton candy the color/ Of day and night."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Langston Hughes electrified readers and launched a renaissance in Black writing in America—the poems in this collection were chosen by Hughes himself shortly before his death and represent stunning work from his entire career. The poems Hughes wrote celebrated the experience of invisible men and women: of slaves who "rushed the boots of Washington"; of musicians on Lenox Avenue; of the poor and the lovesick; of losers in "the raffle of night." They conveyed that experience in a voice that blended the spoken with the sung, that turned poetic lines into the phrases of jazz and blues, and that ripped through the curtain separating high from popular culture. They spanned the range from the lyric to the polemic, ringing out "wonder and pain and terror—and the marrow of the bone of life." The collection includes "The Negro Speaks of Rivers," "The Weary Blues," "Still Here," "Song for a Dark Girl," "Montage of a Dream Deferred," and "Refugee in America." It gives us a poet of extraordinary range, directness, and stylistic virtuosity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Remarkable' Robert Macfarlane 'Gorgeous' Amy Liptrot 'Urgent and nourishing' Jessica J. Lee Nina Mingya Powles first learned to swim in Borneo – where her mother was born and her grandfather studied freshwater fish. There, the local swimming pool became her first body of water. Through her life there have been others that have meant different things, but have still been, in their own way, home: from the wild coastline of New Zealand to a pond in northwest London. In lyrical, powerful prose, Small Bodies of Water weaves together memories, dreams and nature writing. Exploring everything from migration, food, family, earthquakes and the ancient lunisolar calendar, Nina reflects on a girlhood spent growing up between two cultures, and what it means to belong.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: August J. Pettigrew had an eventful childhood. After her family moved from the Deep South to the West Coast, she spent the sixties and seventies growing up in Northern California. She was near one of the most turbulent and evolving centers of counterculture and political fervor. Pettigrew admits that she was insulated from many of these radical changes, but she still recalls the tensions the Vietnam War, Richard Nixon's resignation, and the hunt for the Zodiac Killer brought into her life. At the same time, Pettigrew celebrates the triumphs of the civil rights movement and its lasting legacy. Pettigrew's new poetry collection spans from her childhood to her current position on the cusp of becoming a sexagenarian. Pettigrew infuses all of her poems with hope and optimism. It was her strong faith and positive thinking that helped her overcome the many obstacles on her journey forward. She writes of the challenges of romance and motherhood but also of the light they brought to her life. Pettigrew may look back at where she's been, but she also knows that she is nowhere near the end of her unpredictable path. She can't wait to see what tomorrow holds!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Magnolia Leaves Poems I give my cordial endorsement to this little "Book of Poems," because I believe it will do its part to awaken the Muse of Poetry which I am sure slumbers in very many of the Sons and Daughters of the Race of which the Author of this work is a representative. The Negro's right to be considered worthy of recognition in the field of poetic effort is not now gainsaid as formerly, and each succeeding effort but emphasizes his right to just consideration. The hope, I have, is, that this Volume of "Poems" may fall among the critical and intelligent, who will accord the just meed of praise or of censure, to the end that further effort may be stimulated, no matter what the verdict. The readers I trust will find as much to praise and admire as have I done. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
