Download or read book The Nightfields written by Joanna Klink and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A WASHINGTON POST BEST POETRY COLLECTION OF 2020 A new collection from a poet whose books "are an amazing experience: harrowing, ravishing, essential, unstoppable" (Louise Glück) Joanna Klink's fifth book begins with poems of personal loss--a tree ripped out by a windstorm, a friendship broken off after decades, the nearing death of parents. Other poems take on the cost of not loving fully, or are written from bewilderment at the accumulation of losses and at the mercilessness of having, as one ages, to rule things out. There are elegies for friends, and a group of devotional poems. The Nightfields closes with thirty-one metaphysical poems inspired by the artist James Turrell's Roden Crater, an extinct volcano in Arizona that Turrell has been transforming into an observatory for the perception of time. The sequence unfolds as a series of revelations that begin in psychic fear and move gradually toward the possibility of infinitude and connection.
Book Synopsis Voyage of the Sable Venus by : Robin Coste Lewis
Download or read book Voyage of the Sable Venus written by Robin Coste Lewis and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This National Book Award-winning debut poetry collection is a "powerfully evocative" (The New York Review of Books) meditation on the black female figure through time. Robin Coste Lewis's electrifying collection is a triptych that begins and ends with lyric poems meditating on the roles desire and race play in the construction of the self. In the center of the collection is the title poem, "Voyage of the Sable Venus," an amazing narrative made up entirely of titles of artworks from ancient times to the present—titles that feature or in some way comment on the black female figure in Western art. Bracketed by Lewis's own autobiographical poems, "Voyage" is a tender and shocking meditation on the fragmentary mysteries of stereotype, juxtaposing our names for things with what we actually see and know. A new understanding of biography and the self, this collection questions just where, historically, do ideas about the black female figure truly begin—five hundred years ago, five thousand, or even longer? And what role did art play in this ancient, often heinous story? Here we meet a poet who adores her culture and the beauty to be found within it. Yet she is also a cultural critic alert to the nuances of race and desire—how they define us all, including her own sometimes painful history. Lewis's book is a thrilling aesthetic anthem to the complexity of race—a full embrace of its pleasure and horror, in equal parts.

Download or read book Fiends Fell written by Tom Pickard and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. In FIENDS FELL, Tom Pickard charts a single year out of a decade spent on a bare hilltop near the English-Scottish border, with the roaring wind as his only guide. In journal entries interspersed with lyrics and poems, as in Japanese haibun, he records his daily life on the fells: landmarks of border balladry, weather and wildlife, bankruptcy and lust, the struggle "between appetite and attainment" (in Basil Bunting's words). The result is, among other things, a record of making, its trials and loneliness, its flashes of humor and sudden grace. It culminates in "Lark & Merlin," one of Pickard's finest sequences. As Ange Mlinko has commented in Poetry magazine, Pickard is "a lyric poet in profound correspondence with his home in the North Pennines and with the erotic muse . . ."
Download or read book Poet Fell For It written by Charlie Moose and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-11-04 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second poetry book of Charlie Moose is the follow up to "Poet Didn't Know It: Verses from Ship to Shore." The author reflects on love, as the centerpiece of "falling" and folly. Among the trivialities in life that must be confronted, whether it be politics, media, or fiscal endeavor, people must hold fast to their convictions, but also be vulnerable enough to allow for the soul to evolve. These poems are the reflections of uncomfortable irony and truth in the quest for a balance of mental health and cultivated love.

Book excerpt: We are not born to stake a claim, but to claim a stake in each other, to burn alive if needed in the pure resurrection of our simultaneous decay. We tell ourselves they had a choice, that we have a choice, but some choices are rolling blackouts, some choices are two frayed ends of wire arcing reddest electricities between raw, uncoiling fingers, some choices are piling sandbags with your neighbors as the floodwaters rise, some choices are not really choices at all.

Book excerpt: 2023 Midwest Book Awards Finalist 2021 Feathered Quill Book Awards Bronze Medal Winner 2021 Goodreads Choice Awards - Nominee Language so often fails us.

English is the shiniest hammer I own, but it's also the only thing in my toolbox. Nolexi noun no·lex·i | \ nō-lek-si \ Definition of nolexi: 1 : a word or phrase that does not exist or has no direct translation in a particular language I'll Fly Away uses Francisco's invented lexicon as the palette to paint an intimate portrait of Black life in America — one that praises joy and grace without shying away from the hard truths confronting all of us today.
