Book Synopsis The Farewell Suites by : Andrew Lansdown
Download or read book The Farewell Suites written by Andrew Lansdown and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-08-15 with total page 113 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Farewell Suites is a collection of poems dealing with death and grief and arranged in sets focused on different members of the poet’s family—a brother who committed suicide, a child who died before birth, a father who slipped into delirium as he slipped out of life. These finely crafted poems capture the movements of the heart and are stunning tributes to love, patience, acceptance, and forgiveness. Though focused on the poet’s own loved ones, the poems speak of and to the hearts of all readers, expressing our shared anxieties and sorrows at the passing of those we love. The collection as a whole is deeply comforting, being shot through with both human warmth and heavenly hope. Indeed, Lansdown’s farewells anticipate reunion, when at last our mortality is overwhelmed by immortality.

Book Synopsis America: The Farewell Tour by : Chris Hedges
Download or read book America: The Farewell Tour written by Chris Hedges and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-08-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chris Hedges’s profound and unsettling examination of America in crisis is “an exceedingly…provocative book, certain to arouse controversy, but offering a point of view that needs to be heard” (Booklist), about how bitter hopelessness and malaise have resulted in a culture of sadism and hate. America, says Pulitzer Prize–winning reporter Chris Hedges, is convulsed by an array of pathologies that have arisen out of profound hopelessness, a bitter despair, and a civil society that has ceased to function. The opioid crisis; the retreat into gambling to cope with economic distress; the pornification of culture; the rise of magical thinking; the celebration of sadism, hate, and plagues of suicides are the physical manifestations of a society that is being ravaged by corporate pillage and a failed democracy. As our society unravels, we also face global upheaval caused by catastrophic climate change. All these ills presage a frightening reconfiguration of the nation and the planet. Donald Trump rode this disenchantment to power. In his “forceful and direct” (Publishers Weekly) America: The Farewell Tour, Hedges argues that neither political party, now captured by corporate power, addresses the systemic problem. Until our corporate coup d’état is reversed these diseases will grow and ravage the country. “With sharply observed detail, Hedges writes a requiem for the American dream” (Kirkus Reviews) and seeks to jolt us out of our complacency while there is still time.
Book Synopsis Duke Ellington's Nutcracker Suite by : Anna Harwell Celenza

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's a challenge to transform the "Nutcracker Suite's" romantic orchestra into jumpin' jazz melodies, but that's exactly what Duke Ellington and his collaborator, Billy Strayhorn, did. Ellington's band memebers were not so sure that a classical ballet could become a cool-cat jazz number. But Duke and Billy, inspired by their travels and by musical styles past and present, infused the composition with Vegas glitz, Hollywood glamour, and even a little New York jazz.
Download or read book Let's Call It Home written by Luke Harvey and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2024-08-27 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let’s Call It Home is a slow search for wholeness in the fragmented landscape of language, place, family, and faith. These poems offer themselves as touchstones on the dizzying pilgrimage of ascent and descent towards rooted ground, that place we both hail from and are forever approaching, the home we both know intimately and perennially hunger for. And here, on this road, if the conclusions are provisional and the destination—as seen from this end of things—shifting, the hope compelling us out the door is as certain as the ache that sings us homeward and the unshakable sense of a steadying hand at our backs.
