Book excerpt: My book, Ysmaels Poems, is about adult experiences, family, myself, spirituality, fun, death, life, and going for excursions. It is based on my life and how I see the world. Through each of my varied topics, I learned a lot about life each day. I am learning more from my worldexternal and internal. It is a book on Judaism through my poems, Judeo-Spanish, communing with my ancestors, and appreciating a sunny Southern California day. I am very gregarious, intense, and alive with my poems.

Download or read book The Deed written by Carole Simmons Oles and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 1991-10 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Carole Simmons Oles’s fourth collection of poetry, small events of everyday life throw open a door to meditations on the absence of a husband, on the separation from children, and on the sustenance gained from friendship and the sorrow its loss. Each poem has an ambitious range, sure in its leap from subject to subject. “In Time, with Holsteins,” for example, carries us from close observations on the daily life of cows to facts about Indian rites of penance and purification to worry about a friend’s diagnosis of breast cancer. Even as the poems take their strength from the personal, they are informed by a global concern, the poet’s belief in a network of trust and obligation. “The Radioactive Ball” reflects this concern: I caught it and screamed for water. Someone carried a pail, I plunged my hands in. The water boiled. I wore violet gloves beaded with glass. How can I pick the pail up. Where should I set it. How to turn doorknobs and enter rooms and not lift my child Is it too late to cut them off. Where will I bury them. If I burn them, who will breathe the air of their burning. Throw them into the ozone. Ship them to Mars, these death hands. No pockets will have them. In The Deed, Oles’s strong female voice is dedicated to the exploration of loss tempered by the particulars of pleasure this world offers. In the generous embrace of its vision, this collection will appeal to a wide readership.

Book Synopsis The Two Yvonnes by : Jessica Greenbaum
Download or read book The Two Yvonnes written by Jessica Greenbaum and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-30 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second collection from a Brooklyn poet whose work many readers will know from the New Yorker. Jessica Greenbaum's narrative poems, in which objects and metaphor share highest honors, attempt revelation through close observation of the everyday. Written in "plain American that cats and dogs can read," as Marianne Moore phrased it, these contemporary lyrics bring forward the challenges of Wisława Szymborska, the reportage of Yehuda Amichai, and the formal forays of Marilyn Hacker. The book asks at heart: how does life present itself to us, and how do we create value from our delights and losses? Riding on Kenneth Koch's instruction to "find one true feeling and hang on," The Two Yvonnes overtakes the present with candor, meditation, and the classic aspiration to shape lyric into a lasting force. Moving from 1960s Long Island, to 1980s Houston, to today's Brooklyn, the poems range in subject from the pages of the Talmud to a squirrel trapped in a kitchen. One tells the story of young lovers "warmed by the rays / Their pelvic bones sent over the horizon of their belts," while another describes the Bronx Zoo in winter, where the giraffes pad about "like nurses walking quietly / outside a sick room." Another poem defines the speaker via a "packing slip" of her parts--"brown eyes, brown hair, from hirsute tribes in Poland and Russia." The title poem, in which the speaker and friends stumble through a series of flawed memories about each other, unearths the human vulnerabilities that shape so much of the collection. From The Two Yvonnes: WHEN MY DAUGHTER GOT SICK Her cries impersonated all the world; The fountain's bubbling speech was just a trick But still I turned and looked, as she implored, Or leaned toward muffled noises through the bricks: Just radio, whose waves might be her wav- ering, whose pitch might be her quavering, I turned toward, where, the sirens might be "Save Me," "Help me," "Mommy, Mommy"—everything She, too, had said, since sloughing off the world. She took to bed, and now her voice stays fused To air like outlines of a bygone girl; The streets, the lake, the room—just places bruised Without her form, the way your sheets still hold Rough echoes of the risen sleeper, cold.
Download or read book Unmanly Grief written by Jess Williard and published by Miller Williams Poetry Prize. This book was released on 2019-03-27 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist, 2019 Miller Williams Poetry Prize "Poems that lead us to striking insights and strange destinations." --Billy Collins The men who recur as characters throughout Jess Williard's Unmanly Grief perform their masculinity in a variety of ways: boxing, theater, brotherhood, labor, and familial and romantic love. Marked by a sharp nostalgia, Williard's poems move from Wisconsin to New York City and back, tracing the geographic movement of the speaker and his family: a teenage sister who disappears and returns, changed irrevocably; an older brother dismantled in adulthood; an ever-sacrificing father. Woven through the musculature of this varied and exciting collection, music appears as readily in dexterous formal verse as in lean, scrappy storytelling. What results is a crooning celebration of struggle and tenderness in this world, "where to be small and furious is enough."

Book Synopsis American Melancholy by : Joyce Carol Oates
Download or read book American Melancholy written by Joyce Carol Oates and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-02-09 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new collection of poetry from an American literary legend, her first in twenty-five years Joyce Carol Oates is one of our most insightful observers of the human heart and mind, and, with her acute social consciousness, one of the most insistent and inspired witnesses of a shared American history. Oates is perhaps best known for her prodigious output of novels and short stories, many of which have become contemporary classics. However, Oates has also always been a faithful writer of poetry. American Melancholy showcases some of her finest work of the last few decades. Covering subjects big and small, and written in an immediate and engaging style, this collection touches on both the personal and political. Loss, love, and memory are investigated, along with the upheavals of our modern age, the reality of our current predicaments, and the ravages of poverty, racism, and social unrest. Oates skillfully writes characters ranging from a former doctor at a Chinese People’s Liberation Army hospital to Little Albert, a six-month-old infant who took part in a famous study that revealed evidence of classical conditioning in human beings.

Book Synopsis With a Moon in Transit by : Jacqueline Osherow
Download or read book With a Moon in Transit written by Jacqueline Osherow and published by Grove/Atlantic, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A collection that is down-to-earth and sparkling in its self-deprecating wit . . . Osherow’s poems cast a magical light on whatever she beholds.” —Library Journal In With a Moon in Transit, Jacqueline Osherow has given us her most accomplished poetry to date. Integrating the strengths of her earlier work—humor, honesty, artifice, testimony—into compelling poems of great vigor and charm, she combines the often antithetical impulses of lyric and narrative verse. The result is an aesthetic largely her own, one that permits Osherow to treat emotionally charged events and elaborate ideas with remarkable control. Osherow’s observations are by turns gossipy, grand, sober, and hilarious. She sustains a disarming tone and manages to assimilate elements of both high and popular culture without apparent strain. While firmly rooted in the Hebrew Bible, her verse is also informed by authors as various as Dante and Dickinson. Yet for all that these poems are alive to the literary past, they remain sensitive to the rhythms of conversation and the tones of everyday speech. Osherow’s poems are composed with great clarity and rigor, but they never cease to sound casually spoken. “Marked by an inimitable anecdotal expansiveness and uncompromising control, Jacqueline Osherow’s poems are among the most ambitious being written.” —Mark Strand, Pulitzer Prize–winning poet “Abundant in whimsy, philosophical speculation, and earthly affections, Jacqueline Osherow’s poems inhabit their forms with insouciance and wit . . . Whether in mourning or celebration, hers is a voice of dazzling confidence, and humane and generous wisdom.” —Rosanna Warren, author of So Forth: Poems

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In They Are Sleeping, Joanna Klink tests the limits of solitude, setting her poems in places where our grip on “self” is loosened and blurred--caves, coastlines, rooms in cities. As her poems lead us through these sometimes beautiful, sometimes appalling internal landscapes, characters like the Hanged Man and the Lady of Situations reappear, often locked in misunderstanding but compelling us toward a more fragile and expansive sense of self.

Download or read book Roze & Blud written by Jayson Iwen and published by Miller Williams Poetry Prize. This book was released on 2020 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In a book-length series of persona poems, Jayson Iwen examines the intimate thoughts and feelings of Americans whose lives have been predominantly ignored by contemporary mainstream culture. Through the eyes of a teenage girl growing up in a trailer park and a retired veteran sharing an apartment with an Afghan refugee, Iwen reveals the everyday heartbreak and beauty experienced by people living at the periphery of the nation's consciousness. Roze and Blud is gritty, gut-wrenching, gorgeous, and ultimately transcendent. It is a Spoon River Anthology for the 21st Century, a Waste Land for the heartland. Roze and Blud is a virtuoso performance, the kind of book that fundamentally transforms the way you see the world after you have experienced it... because you don't read it, you experience it. In addition to winning the Miller Williams Poetry Prize, Roze and Blud was a finalist for the National Poetry Series and the Green Rose Prize, as well as a semi-finalist for the Wheeler Prize and the Brittingham and Felix Pollak Prizes"--
