Download or read book Unicorn written by Rosemary Hill and published by Profile Books. This book was released on 2015-11-05 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: a) The Unicorn As with the night-scented stock, the full splendour of the unicorn manifests itself most potently at twilight. Then the horn sprouts, swells, blooms in all its glory. SEE THE HORN (bend the tab, slit in slot marked 'x') Despite being one of the most influential - and best-loved - of the post-war English writers, Angela Carter remains little-known as a poet. In Unicorn, the critic and historian Rosemary Hill collects together her published verse from 1963-1971, a period in which Carter began to explore the themes that dominated her later work: magic, the reworking of myths and their darker sides, and the overturning of literary and social conventions. With imagery at times startling in its violence and disconcerting in its presentation of sexuality, Unicorn provides compelling insight into the formation of a remarkable imagination. In the essay that accompanies the poems the critic and historian Rosemary Hill considers them in the context of Carter's other work and as an aspect of the 1960s, the decade which as Carter put it 'wasn't like they say in the movies'.
Book Synopsis The Unicorn Poem & Flowers and Songs of Sorrow by : E. A. Mares
Download or read book The Unicorn Poem & Flowers and Songs of Sorrow written by E. A. Mares and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet, historian, and college professor, E. A. Mares is one of the true underground poets of the Chicano renaissance. His Unicorn Poem, first published in 1980, has been hailed as a Chicano epic. The present volume also comprises thirty-two poems of the last decade, including Flowers and Songs of Sorrow, a meditation on the inevitable reversal of the triumphs of conquest. Mares proposes not a myth of bloodletting, but one of survival in love and goodness. His is an image of the unity of all peoples who would side with nature against the spoilers of the earth. To avoid fixation on the enemy, he prefers to concentrate on his own people, but always through the lens of the writer whose real material is language.Bruce-Novoa

THE MEAN GAME--John Wall Barger's fourth book-length entry in what might be called, collectively, a savage comedy--bristles with allegories that explore human cruelty and suffering. Gathering narratives that feel both ancient and modern, Barger forges an apocalyptic vision without sacrificing poetry's underlying sense of joy, humour and revelation. Part comic book translated from a dead language, and part nightmare dreamscape, THE MEAN GAME is a must-read from one of Canada's most kinetic writers.

Book Synopsis New River Breakdown by : Terry L. Kennedy
Download or read book New River Breakdown written by Terry L. Kennedy and published by Unicorn Press (Nc). This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Not only is Terry Kennedy's NEW RIVER BREAKDOWN a stellar volume of prose poems, but it's also a canny primer on that genre--a many-headed, oft-misunderstood hybrid. His querulous, introspective speaker resists his own breakdown by breaking down his universe into parcels of incremental wonder in which 'fear and love [are] one and the same.' The result is poem after poem of fabulous imagery and infinite possibility. We recognize in these tableaux the worlds we inhabit and long for at once--articulated so memorably in 'What Love Comes To': 'One small thing I still love about you is how little of you I actually know...' Kennedy expertly explores the prose poem's accommodating elasticity, beautifully marrying the discursive brunt of the best prose and the impressionistic language verse thrives on."--Joseph Bathanti, Poet Laureate of North Carolina "Beautiful and moving, Terry Kennedy's second poetry collection describes an elusive and haunting narrative of loss, love, and recovery. His prose poems bring us so close to the narrator that we share in our bones his predicament of wanting to go forward while fearing what may be ahead. 'It's neither the end nor the beginning of all we hope for, ' he discovers. Lyricism and considered thought are here, and lines that strike sparks from these passionate poems."--Kelly Cherry, author of The Life and Death of Poetry "The bright, swiftly kinetic surfaces of Terry Kennedy's poems whisper as they pass a wistful but passionate love story. He has an Impressionist's purpose and deftness of touch. I think of Renoir, of the etudes of Debussy. Yet his strophes stand firmly on their ground and are as strong as the seasons they portray. His every image bears the nuances of a remembrance. NEW RIVER BREAKDOWN is a rare treasure."--Fred Chappell, winner of the Bollingen Prize for Poetry, author of Ancestors and Others Poetry. Hybrid Genre.
