Book excerpt: "You want to what?" Barb regards her husband with incredulity at the prospect of paddling down the entire length of the mighty Mississippi River in their recently completed tandem kayak. Paddle for a Purpose sweeps the reader into a journey of faith and personal discovery, as Barb and Gene feel called to volunteer with charity organizations in quaint river towns along one of the most scenic and powerful river systems in America. Against a backdrop of picturesque settings and the river's changing moods, exciting and often humorous accounts of adventure and mishap intermingle with inspiring stories of healing, renewal, beauty, compassion and trust in God.

Download or read book Mistress Mississippi written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the concluding volume of Louis Daniel Brodsky's narrative trilogy about a Northerner's personal odyssey in Faulkner's Mississippi, the hypocrisy and bigotry of small-town Oxford, with its commercialization of Faulkner, exacerbate the main character's disillusion, a malaise that ultimately leads to his moral and spiritual degradation. Louis D. Brodsky always works in improbable and daring ways. The narrator of this striking monologue . . . metaphorically transforms the State of Mississippi into "Mistress Mississippi," the image incarnate of his illusions and delusions of desire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The book is composed of 62 poems selected from several of Ewa Lipska's books in which the figure Ms. Schubert appears. Ms. Schubert, a modern European everywoman, is the addressee in poems that read like brief, intimate communiqués between a man and a woman whose relationship over time interweaves a shared secret life with the historical domain of wars, extremist governments, shifting economies, languages (Polish, German, English), and technologies. Ms. Schubert, as recipient of these cryptic postcards, represents the poet's subtle call to her readers as we navigate our own historical moment-balancing sociopolitical action with the authentic love that can endure only between and among individuals"--

Download or read book Americorona written by Philip C. Kolin and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-08-12 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems in Americorona track the history of COVID-19 in the US from late 2019 to early 2021—how the pandemic affects America medically, economically, spiritually, and psychologically. There are three types of poems in seven sections in Americorona. Leading each section are poems about other historical pandemics (cholera, Black Death, polio, Irish Potato Famine, Pharaoh’s plagues, etc.) that foreshadow or parallel the tragic events ushered in by COVID-19. The majority of poems, however, are about COVID-19 tragedies—how the pandemic started, how it impacts children and minorities, how it resulted in hunger and increased discrimination, how it brings out naysayers, how the medical community is dealing with the pandemic. Interspersed among COVID-19 and historical poems are experimental ones on such topics as the “memory of breathing” or the “exhaustion of monotony” during the pandemic.

Book excerpt: Playful but ominous, 10 Mississippi reads like a game of hide-and-seek set in America's rising floodwaters of text and technology. Fluid, lively, and referential, 10 Mississippi samples language from many cultural tributaries, performing sequels of celebrated twentieth-century poems, darkly riffing on advertising slogans, tongue twisters, formulaic news reports, and everyone's favorite twenty-six-letter sentence, "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." Like the proverbial river that is never the same twice, Healey's poems channel the constant transformation of the modern world and embrace the human drama in all its absurd variety.

Book excerpt: The poems in Catherine Pierce's new Danger Days celebrate our planet while also bearing witness to its collapse. In poems steeped deep in the 21st century, Pierce weaves superblooms and Legos, gun violence and ghosts, glaciers and contaminant masks, urging us to look closely at both the horror and beauty of our world. As Pierce writes in "Planet," "I'm trying to see this place even as I'm walking through it."

This book was released on 2016-11-24 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "...the Mississippi Crying" is a collection of poems and stories of healing written as responses to racial injustices dealt with in the Black community. Starting in 2005 with the response to Hurricane Katrina and ending with looking at our future as a Black community, this book examines the emotions, responses, and conversations that occurred after each incident within the Black community. Often times we are bombarded with issues of oppression in the United States and seldom take the time to work through the emotions or to work through the pain. Black bodies have been targeted for years and now that it has been exposed to public scrutiny we must take care of ourselves. This book is designed as a tool for healing through words. Mental health issues are real. Mental health issues need to be addressed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Katrina is poet Natasha Trethewey’s very personal profile of her natal Mississippi Gulf Coast and of the people there whose lives were forever changed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. Trethewey’s attempt to understand and document the damage to Gulfport started as a series of lectures at the University of Virginia that were subsequently published as essays in the Virginia Quarterly Review. For Beyond Katrina, Trethewey expanded this work into a narrative that incorporates personal letters, poems, and photographs, offering a moving meditation on the love she holds for her childhood home. In this new edition, Trethewey looks back on the ten years that have passed since Katrina in a new epilogue, outlining progress that has been made and the challenges that still exist.

Book excerpt: "Nezhukumatathil’s poems contain elegant twists of a very sharp knife. She writes about the natural world and how we live in it, filling each poem, each page with a true sense of wonder." —Roxane Gay “Cultural strands are woven into the DNA of her strange, lush... poems. Aphorisms...from another dimension.” —The New York Times “With unparalleled ease, she’s able to weave each intriguing detail into a nuanced, thought-provoking poem that also reads like a startling modern-day fable.” —The Poetry Foundation “How wonderful to watch a writer who was already among the best young poets get even better!” —Terrance Hayes With inquisitive flair, Aimee Nezhukumatathil creates a thorough registry of the earth’s wonderful and terrible magic. In her fourth collection of poetry, she studies forms of love as diverse and abundant as the ocean itself. She brings to life a father penguin, a C-section scar, and the Niagara Falls with a powerful force of reverence for life and living things. With an encyclopedic range of subjects and unmatched sincerity, Oceanic speaks to each reader as a cooperative part of the earth, an extraordinary neighborhood to which we all belong. From “Starfish and Coffee”: And that’s how you feel after tumbling like sea stars on the ocean floor over each other. A night where it doesn’t matter which are arms or which are legs or what radiates and how— only your centers stuck together. Aimee Nezhukumatathil is the author of four collections of poetry. Recipient of a National Endowment for the Arts fellowship and the prestigious Eric Hoffer Grand Prize, Nezhukumatathil teaches creative writing and environmental literature in the MFA program at the University of Mississippi.
