Book excerpt: Howard Sounes, the bestselling author of Down the Highway: The Life of Bob Dylan and Charles Bukowski: Locked in the Arms of a Crazy Life, turns his considerable reporting and storytelling skills to one of the most famous, talented—and wealthiest—men alive: Paul McCartney. Fab is the first exhaustive biography of the legendary musician; it tells Sir Paul's whole life story, from childhood to present day, from working-class Liverpool beginnings to the cultural phenomenon that was The Beatles to his many solo incarnations. Fab is the definitive portrait of McCartney, a man of contradictions and a consummate musician far more ruthless, ambitious, and moody than his relaxed public image implies. Based on original research and more than two hundred new interviews, Fab also reveals for the first time the full story of his two marriages, romances, family feuds, phenomenal wealth, and complex relationships with his fellow ex-Beatles.

Book Synopsis A Poet's Notebook by : Stewart Henderson
Download or read book A Poet's Notebook written by Stewart Henderson and published by Lion Books. This book was released on 2018-06-22 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Poet's notebook... with new poems...obviously... includes not just recent favourites, television and radio commissioned poems, some freshly minted verse written especially for this book but also notes and gives the background on how, why, and where the poems were written. Such documentary reportage and wider contemporary reflection gives a fascinating insight into the genesis, development and presentation of the 30 poems chosen. In effect, the book is part journal, part commentary on the wider implications of 'how did we all end up here'? It addresses the light and shade of our days, the celebrations and catastrophes, and acutely observes the collective state and soul of 'this one life'. Complete with the poet's trademark humour encouraging the reader to practice, once again, child-like glee. These are poems you can whistle, sing, chant... and be silent with.

Download or read book Wilfred Owen written by Guy Cuthbertson and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-25 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Britain’s best-known and most loved poets, Wilfred Owen (1893–1918) was killed at age 25 on one of the last days of the First World War, having acted heroically as soldier and officer despite his famous misgivings about the war's rationale and conduct. He left behind a body of poetry that sensitively captured the pity, rage, valor, and futility of the conflict. In this new biography Guy Cuthbertson provides a fresh account of Owen's life and formative influences: the lower-middle-class childhood that he tried to escape; the places he lived in, from Birkenhead to Bordeaux; his class anxieties and his religious doubts; his sexuality and friendships; his close relationship with his mother and his childlike personality. Cuthbertson chronicles a great poet's growth to poetic maturity, illuminates the social strata of the extraordinary Edwardian era, and adds rich context to how Owen's enduring verse can be understood.

Download or read book Bijoux written by Bobbie Louise Hawkins and published by Farfalla Press / McMIllan & Parrish. This book was released on 2006 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Bobbie Louise Hawkins' BIJOUX explores both the hope and futility of everyday life with wit and erudition. "Most interesting works of word-art arise out of a sense of our being 'at a loss for words' - while knowing that there must be some, out there, among all the deafening racket of the outside: words we may use to counter and cut through pandemonium, to clear a space, to have this moment, in these words. Again and again, with elegant insight, wit, and compassion, Bobbie Louise Hawkins' poems invite us into such spaces of human clarity." - Anselm Hollo

Book Synopsis Glad Stone Children by : Edmund Berrigan

Book excerpt: Poetry. GLAD STONE CHILDREN is Edmund Berrigan's third collection of poetry. His previous work includes DISARMING MATTER and Your Cheatin' Heart. Son of noted poet, Ted Berrigan, Edmund has a style all his own; GLAD STONE CHILDREN has a musicality and flow of consciousness. He considers the romantic and the political as well as praise and critique for lyric. "Eddie Berrigan gives a nod to his lineage, acknowledging his upbringing as poetry's child. Berrigan's music, laced with undercurrents of violence and tension, is elegant and hysterically absurd by turns. These poems are a blueprint for a new generation of young American Poets"-Brenda Coultas. Praise for GLAD STONE CHILDREN and Edmund Berrigan is never-ending: He is a "rare sort of spy for the imperfect pitch"-John Coletti.
Book Synopsis The Green Piano by : Janine Pommy-Vega
Download or read book The Green Piano written by Janine Pommy-Vega and published by David R. Godine Publisher. This book was released on 2005 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poems from an ever-wandering poet, Janine Pommy Vega. American Book Review wrote, "She is changed by her journey through the world, and she changes the world through her words." Janine Pommy Vega writes with quiet command of her life and times and of our shared American present. Here are protests against the depravities of the prison system, political poems grounded in closely observed human particulars. Here too are tender lyrics about family, lovers, and friends; celebrations of the natural and domestic worlds of upstate New York; and remarkably vivid letters home from spiritual sojourns through Italy, Germany, and the former Yugoslavia. "Vega's poems reflect a deeply felt and aching knowledge. They 'go' (as Kerouac said) their own patient, unadorned, and dignified way," wrote Publishers Weekly of her previous collection, Mad Dogs of Trieste.
