Book excerpt: Kwame Dawes is not a native Nebraskan. Born in Ghana, he later moved to Jamaica, where he spent most of his childhood and early adulthood. In 1992 he relocated to the United States and eventually found himself an American living in Lincoln, Nebraska. In Nebraska, this beautiful and evocative collection of poems, Dawes explores a theme constant in his work--the intersection of memory, home, and artistic invention. The poems, set against the backdrop of Nebraska's discrete cycle of seasons, are meditative even as they search for a sense of place in a new landscape. While he shovels snow or walks in the bitter cold to his car, he is engulfed with memories of Kingston, yet when he travels, he finds himself longing for the open space of the plains and the first snowfall. With a strong sense of place and haunting memories, Dawes grapples with life in Nebraska as a transplant. Purchase the audio edition.

Book excerpt: The Untidy Season: An Anthology of Nebraska Women Poets takes its readers through the lush alphabet of Nebraska poetry-from Adkins to Zumpfe-with selections of poetry by nearly 90 native-born or transplanted Nebraska writers who write and live fearlessly and with great skill. Their topics range from the beginnings of life to the end-family relationships, loss, misunderstandings, work, trust, betrayal, love and hate, bereavement. Through those lives-because of them-these poems emeged, an indelible record of the triumph of the human spirit. The four editors of The Untidy Season, each an accomplished poet in her own right, searched for poems of clarity, honesty, passion, and brilliance. One of the editors wrote: "We were drawn to work that both celebrated and subverted the 'typical' Nebraska experience, the 'typical' experience of motherhood, the 'typical' experience of womanhood. I suppose my own aesthetic leads me to be drawn to work that challenges 'typical, ' but much of the work we experienced over that year of reading submissions forced me to engage with my own stereotypes and see inside them."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nebraska Poets: One Hundred Pages of Prairie Poems W. H. Alexander. (page Mr. Alexander does not claim any prominence in the field of literature, but he has earned, nevertheless, a creditable reputation as a forci ble and graceful writer, having been a liberal contributor to several prominent jour nale upon political, historical and social topics. He is a close observer, a careful reader, and an excellent speaker. He has held several positions of trust, and is now surveyor of customs at Omaha. Mr. Alexander has written a number of poems, most of which have been published, but without the author's signature, and it may be of interest to readers who recall any or all of the brief numbers selected for this vol ume, to learn for the first time who wrote them. Mrs. Emily shuman (page though an easterner by birth, has passed most of her life west of the Missouri, and mostly in Nebraska. The public schools and an especial training in music brought out her natural abilities. Mrs. Shuman is of a happy, impulsive disposition, an Optimist, a lover of nature. She was married in 1883, and the subsequent cares of a home were brightened by two promising little girls Whose very existence has furnished inspiration for their mother's pen. Mrs. Shuman says that of her literary pursuits hardly a beginning has been made, but this will scarcely be believed by those who note the clearness of vision and the tender ness of nature manifested in the works of hers here printed.

This book was released on 2001-05-30 with total page 980 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dictionary of Midwestern Literature, Volume One, surveys the lives and writings of nearly 400 Midwestern authors and identifies some of the most important criticism of their writings. The Dictionary is based on the belief that the literature of any region simultaneously captures the experience and influences the worldview of its people, reflecting as well as shaping the evolving sense of individual and collective identity, meaning, and values. Volume One presents individual lives and literary orientations and offers a broad survey of the Midwestern experience as expressed by its many diverse peoples over time.Philip A. Greasley's introduction fills in background information and describes the philosophy, focus, methodology, content, and layout of entries, as well as criteria for their inclusion. An extended lead-essay, "The Origins and Development of the Literature of the Midwest," by David D. Anderson, provides a historical, cultural, and literary context in which the lives and writings of individual authors can be considered.This volume is the first of an ambitious three-volume series sponsored by the Society for the Study of Midwestern Literature and created by its members. Volume Two will provide similar coverage of non-author entries, such as sites, centers, movements, influences, themes, and genres. Volume Three will be a literary history of the Midwest. One goal of the series is to build understanding of the nature, importance, and influence of Midwestern writers and literature. Another is to provide information on writers from the early years of the Midwestern experience, as well as those now emerging, who are typically absent from existing reference works.
