Book excerpt: Sponde takes a common theme of the century, man coming to terms with death, with his own death; yet this experience is set forth with so profound a conviction, it is so refined in a chemical sense, that we study the poems as pure experience. Sonnets are presented in original French with English translation and commentary.

Book excerpt: The bestselling poet Malcolm Guite chooses forty poems from across the centuries that express the universal experience of loss and reflects on them in order to draw out the comfort, understanding and hope they offer. Some of the poems will be familiar, many will be new, but together they provide a sure companion for the journey across difficult terrain. Some of Malcolm’s own poetry is included, written out of his work as a priest with the dying and the bereaved and giving to the volume a powerful authenticity. The choice of forty poems is significant and reflects an ancient practice still observed in some European and Middle Eastern societies of taking extra-special care of a bereaved person in the forty days following a death – our word quarantine come from this. They explore the nature and the risk of love, the pain of letting go and look toward glimpses of resurrection.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sonnets are fourteen lines with iambic pentameter rhythm. Outside of that, anything goes. Some self-imposed limitations could prevail, but I choose to let the reader listen to the voice rather than just to hear the sound, feel the rhythm rather than count the beat, and see the message rather than analyze the form. So, enjoy the picture and not the frame -- after all, a poem by any other name . . .

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The most complete and current edition of Dylan Thomas' collected poetry in a beautiful gift edition celebrating the centenary of his birth The reputation of Dylan Thomas (1914-1953) as one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century has not waned in the fifty years since his death. A Welshman with a passion for the English language, Thomas’s singular poetic voice has been admired and imitated, but never matched. This exciting, newly edited annotated edition offers a more complete and representative collection of Dylan Thomas’s poetic works than any previous edition. Edited by leading Dylan Thomas scholar John Goodby from the University of Swansea, The Poems of Dylan Thomas contains all the poems that appeared in Collected Poems 1934-1952, edited by Dylan Thomas himself, as well as poems from the 1930-1934 notebooks and poems from letters, amatory verses, occasional poems, the verse film script for “Our Country,” and poems that appear in his “radio play for voices,” Under Milk Wood. Showing the broad range of Dylan Thomas’s oeuvre as never before, this new edition places Thomas in the twenty-first century, with an up-to-date introduction by Goodby whose notes and annotations take a pluralistic approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "LAST WRITES: Love, Death & Falling" (Poems & Other Writings), by Ian James.Far more than a death watch, Last Writes is an exquisite love story-one stripped bare of the niceties that convention too often demands from a Romance Story included for mass consumption. Indeed, there would be no "Happily ever after." For Ruth and Ian James, there would only be an inevitable ending. * * * When I call Last Writes an exquisite love story, it is that, and so much more. It is the story of a sentient human being at war with himself and his surroundings, raging against the immediacy of what life was demanding of him-that he let go of all he loved and held most dear and be confronted with what he had no hope of forestalling; let alone, winning; since it isn't, and wasn't, that kind of war he waged, against Death, no less. Each and every poem, each and every line, gives voice to the depth of Ian's love for his beloved, Ruth. To read his work, is to participate in a celebration of life.

Written from the heart, When Angels Speak of Love is a book of 50 love poems by the icon of the feminist movement and most famous among public intellectuals. In beautiful, profoundly poetic terms, hooks challenges our views and experiences with love—tracing the link between seduction and surrender, the intensity of desire, and the anguish of death. Whether towards family, friends, or oneself, hooks's creative genius makes love both magical and beautiful.

Book excerpt: This collection represents efforts to persuade any reader that the sonnet does not have to be a form impossible to emulate nor too difficult to understand. It should be looked upon as a challenge to fit a universe of emotions into a particular framework simple in its limitations but as complex in its potential as the great writers before had made them through the brilliance of their individual genius.Themes are as different as the experiences of the writer from day to day from birth to death and all the time in between. The language need not be lofty nor does it need to reach down to the vulgar. It can borrow from the past and delve into that of the future. It can keep the rhyme schemes of those who made them famous, or it may create new ones for any reason or none at all.If sonnets are not worth reading, they would never have been made.

Book excerpt: One of the most beloved poets of the twentieth century, Rainer Maria Rilke is widely celebrated for his depth of insight and timeless relevance. He has influenced generations of writers with his classic Letters to a Young Poet, and his reflections on the divine and our place in the world are disarmingly profound. A Year with Rilke provides the first ever reading from Rilke for every day of the year, including selections from his luminous poetry, his piercing prose, and his intimate letters and journals. Rilke is a trusted guide amid the bustle of our daily experience, reflecting on such themes as impermanence, the beauty of creation, the voice of God, and the importance of solitude. With new translations from the editors, whose acclaimed translation of Rilke's The Book of Hours won an ardent readership, this collection reveals the depth and breadth of Rilke's acclaimed work.
