Book Synopsis My Mother, My Daughter, My Sister, My Self by : Faith Ruth Patricia Collins
Download or read book My Mother, My Daughter, My Sister, My Self written by Faith Ruth Patricia Collins and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-17 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four women of three generations wrote, and stored for years, the heartspeak of their lives. This poetry tells of their joys, loves, families, nature, and choices each made. The voices are distinctly personal and reflect their sense of place, age and personality. From Washington D. C. to New York, from Kentucky to south Texas, their thoughts are turned to verses. The writing timespan is broad, stretching from the late 1930's to yesterday. The poems evoke the time period of their creation - the depression, World War II, Cold War, Vietnam War, Six Day War, Gulf War. Each poet found a different form in which to speak of longing, desire, acceptance and fulfillment. The women's lives were as varied as a quilt, traveling as far as Asia and Africa, all spending time in Europe, and sometimes it was the dusty plain of south Texas. Their means of a livelihood, which heavily influenced their time to pursue their writing, barely touches the poetry. The book opens with the work of Faith Collins, My Mother, Alien Soul. She writes with the finely tuned voice of the literarily honed pen. Ever the lover of words, her subjects are her relationship with God, her loves, her isolation. Her longings, in her 'never quite comfortable' life, and her sense of humor, are spun out in the memorable shaping of her thoughts into verse. The second voice is Laura McCarty, My Daughter. The sharply chiseled and raw tools put to hand in Love and Dirt display the division of age and place. Her voice is new and entirely her own, slicing through alibi and pretense, evasion and rationalization. Her widely traveled life and many adventures are played out for the reader in verses that take them along for the wild ride. The quiet, insistent verses of Penny Ingle Bagby, My Sister, in Encounters, tracks her long life's walk across almost all of Texas. She paints a landscape sometimes barren, sometimes lush. The ups and downs of living find their way out of her heart and into the poems she has carefully crafted. At times her demand that her thoughts conform to certain styles are evident in her sonnets and villanelles but she also slides into free verse. The last section is My Self, Murmurs by Patricia Ruth. The haunting of past and place, as her life moves across the decades, works its way along the threads of her mind and unravels as verse, poems which resonate with those who labor, who lose, who love, who leave. She affirms that the necessities and yearnings of emotion are essential and universal. Inside this hefty volume these women weave a story familiar to most women of the past century. It casts a mirror to the reader who holds it up and nods - yes, these are the feelings I have pondered, the realities I have endured, the wounds I have sustained. Only the tiniest portion of this collection found its way into the public domain before the publishing of this book. When it did it received grateful appreciation from others in the form of awards.
Download or read book A Nod to My Father written by John Lee and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: POETRY ONCE WRITTEN IN QUIET SOLITUDE and then shared between three generations is now offered together in this first collection of poems. In A Nod to My Father, a father, son, and grandsonwith obvious differences in style and depthshow uncanny similarities in subject and vision. What ties these writers together, besides relation, are their reflections on our modern times. Influenced by his early research of Longfellow and Whitman, grandfather John McKinleys poetry centers on the irony and absurdity of the human ego and our place in the natural world. Lee, Johns son, prefers to write within the syllabic style of haiku.. Adam, Johns grandson and Lees son, cites Mary Oliver and Robinson Jeffers as his poetic influences. He enjoys the latitude of free verse but also the discipline of writing in cinquains and haiku to express his social discourse. A Nod to My Father demonstrates that although poetic styles may differ between fathers and sons, what they seek to imbibe and digest rarely does.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gene Pool (Or else, perhaps, Something in the Water) Every family has its own peculiarities, its funny little, off-beat traditions or characteristic features--oh yes, she's got the Haberman eyes--. This family happens to write poetry. It must be something in the genes, or else in the water! During the American Civil War, an ancestor wrote home from a Southern Prison elegant poetic lines about the struggle and agony there. His granddaughter, Daisy Wollangk wrote witty lines which her family and friends treasured, but which were never distributed to the general public. Katy Haberman, daughter of Daisy, started writing poetry while still a child and continues to this day, and her daughter, Jillian Haberman is already a published author as well as a poet--it's a "family thing".

Book Synopsis Poetry of Three Generations by : Leonard Milgraum
Download or read book Poetry of Three Generations written by Leonard Milgraum and published by Michael Milgraum. This book was released on 2013-03-01 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Words have magic, words create," so says Michael Milgraum in his foreword to this delightful and enriching exploration of the work of three generations of poets. Within these pages one can sense a family tradition of wisdom, deep spirituality and the craft of elegant and clear expression. Leonard Milgraum, the first generation, uses lyrical poetry as a platform to teach, inspire and help us remember the richness of life. His work flows off the page, like a song to the heart. Michael Milgraum, the second generation, is a psychotherapist who, in his poetry, presents an integration of psychological and spiritual growth. He speaks, in an authentic and uncompromising voice, about the challenges, struggles and striving of those who both long for and fear opening their hearts to others and God. Rena Milgraum, the third generation, brings, in her offerings, a combination of innocence and celebration. Her poetry implores us to pause long enough to connect with the miracle and artistry of a tree, freshly fallen snow or a newborn baby. The book's poetry is divided into sections: Parents and Children, The Art of Living, Nature, and Connection and Disconnection. Within each section the three generations are intermingled, making the book read like a lively conversation between the poets. The book has an additional treat-A Parable About Rhythm, Music, Words and Spirit. In essence, this parable explores how fractured man can find wholeness...and holiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cook Chronicles Three Generations of Poets is a tribute not only to our history and one of the oldest art forms known to man; it is a collective tribute to poets who bring blank pieces of paper to life by way of their pen. "The Source," William John Cook Jr., an honored WWII Vet, the first entry in this legacy provides priceless contribution to this piece with his never before seen works, dating back over six decades. His wisdom on life, serving time in the war and his take on our future is nothing less then thought provoking, inspiring and candid."The Vessel," the second entry by William's first grandchild, Marie Antionette, adds a sassy twist to the compilation while riding the fence of melancholy and morality. The anthology then comes full circle by concluding with the fresh input of William's first great-grandson, Day'Quan Jabree' whose segment is accordingly titled, "The Future." This young writer allows readers to witness the struggles of an evolving youth, as they reach to obtain balance in today's world of conflict and uncertainty. The Cook Chronicles provides readers with insight from a variety of angles and a balance for all generations, past, present and future. A classic addition to any library! "The Cook Chronicles Three Generation of Poets, can only be described as nourishment for the soul; a loving tribute to a man whose own soul should have been diminished by war and discrimination, yet flourished instead. William J. Cook 'Cookie' Jr. penned a legacy decades ago; prose which resonates over sixty years later. Though he has passed on, his words and his talent lives on through his granddaughter and great-grandson. And because of Marie Antoinette's desire to share her grandfather's legacy, we are the richer for it." Author L.M. Romagnoli
Book Synopsis Nation, power and dissidence in third generation Nigerian poetry in English by : E. Egya
Download or read book Nation, power and dissidence in third generation Nigerian poetry in English written by E. Egya and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2019-04-12 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nation, Power and Dissidence in Third Generation Nigerian Poetry in English is a theoretical and analytical survey of the poetry that emerged in Nigeria in the 1980s. Hurt into poetry, the poets collectively raise aesthetics of resistance that dramatises the nationalist imagination bridging the gap between poetry and politics in Nigeria. The emerging generation of poetic voices raises an outcry against the repressive military regimes of the 1980s and 1990s. Ingrained in the tradition of protest literature in Africa, the third-generation poetry is presented here as part of the cultural struggles that unseat military despotism and envisage a democratic society.
