Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a window into the thoughts and feelings one goes through when you're locked behind bars. It's the memories of lost loves and things that keep you sane. You regale the emotions of triumphs, friends and family. The things that you appreciate the most. The tragedy of being incarcerated and being away from those you love the most. The sense of helplessness and regret......and the lessons you will learn. Or at least the ones that this Outlaw learned. For now....life is a journey.

Download or read book The American Midwest written by Andrew R. L. Cayton and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2006-11-08 with total page 1918 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This first-ever encyclopedia of the Midwest seeks to embrace this large and diverse area, to give it voice, and help define its distinctive character. Organized by topic, it encourages readers to reflect upon the region as a whole. Each section moves from the general to the specific, covering broad themes in longer introductory essays, filling in the details in the shorter entries that follow. There are portraits of each of the region's twelve states, followed by entries on society and culture, community and social life, economy and technology, and public life. The book offers a wealth of information about the region's surprising ethnic diversity -- a vast array of foods, languages, styles, religions, and customs -- plus well-informed essays on the region's history, culture and values, and conflicts. A site of ideas and innovations, reforms and revivals, and social and physical extremes, the Midwest emerges as a place of great complexity, signal importance, and continual fascination.

Book excerpt: Poetry. Winner of the 2019 Richard Snyder Memorial Publication Prize. "The poems in MIDWEST GOTHIC make the daily deliciously strange--'the daily / which isn't still at all but a whirring / gone deep.' They make us work our way inside them, but once I entered this book, I didn't want to leave. I wanted to stay in 'the copper-tipped town;' I wanted to stay with the delphinium, 'a choir of indigo, ' and 'cornfields made surreal / in the dark.' These difficult times have tested my faith in many things, including language, and MIDWEST GOTHIC arrived just in time to remind me what poems can do."--Maggie Smith

Download or read book Vessel written by Parneshia Jones and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The imagination of a girl, the retelling of family stories, and the unfolding of a rich and often painful history: Parneshia Jones’ debut collection explores the intersections of these elements of experience with refreshing candor and metaphorical purpose. A child of the South speaking in the rhythms of Chicago, Jones knits “a human quilt” with herself at the center. She relates everything from the awkward trip to Marshall Fields with her mother to buy her first bra to the late whiskey-infused nights of her father’s world. In the South, “lard sizzles a sermon from the stove”; in Chicago, we feast on an “opera of peppers and pimento.” Jones intertwines the stories of her own family with those of historical Black figures, including Marvin Gaye and Josephine Baker. Affectionate, dynamic, and uncommonly observant, these poems mine the richness of history to create a map of identity and influence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Native American Studies. "From the first poem in SOUTHWEST BY MIDWEST, 'Prolog: The Pot Taking Shape" to the last, 'Epilog: At the Center of the Circle, ' former Indiana Poet Laureate Norbert Krapf weaves a delicate, prescient tale of New Mexican and Arizonian indigenous aesthetics and poetry, its artists and the universe in clear, gentle and tactile language. Krapf shows not only a literary prowess but a consideration for cultural nuances not his own. With the last lines of his last poem, 'You too make love and music / that can save us all. You too / live and breathe at the center, ' he connects us back to the beginning: to language and ourselves. A beautiful book."--Shonda Buchanan

Book excerpt: "Planning the book, I felt that one of its most important purposes would be to offer proof that what appears to many a colorless region is to some rich, complicated, thrilling. That, in short the Midwest is made up of the stuff of poetry. And once those living in it begin to see the details--cornfields, skyscrapers, small-town streets, whatever--with the help of their poets, they will find it not only possible to live with some measure of contentment among its particulars but even, miraculously, begin to love them and the poems they fill."--Introduction p. xxiii
