Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sequel to Forever, for Now follows the second year of a romance between two middle-aged lovers, mixing erotic poems with those depicting memorable events they share (attending symphonies, going to the zoo, gardening, listening to jazz, traveling and sightseeing, celebrating holidays) as they journey from passion to the deepening, mellowing affection and intimacy of their new life together. Their growing love is highlighted by a gentle sensuousness, perhaps uncommon to many of us today, that is symbolized by the story's pervasive paper-whites, an exotically scented variety of narcissus, to which the pair devotedly tend.

Book Synopsis By Leaps and Bounds by : Louis Daniel Brodsky
Download or read book By Leaps and Bounds written by Louis Daniel Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. The second and third years of a child's life are filled with the extraordinary ordinary events that are steppingstone rites of passage: learning to walk and speak; reveling in play and mischief; enduring the travails of illness; growing familiar with the world beyond the house, where dogs, rabbits, and fireflies mesmerize curious eyes; taking part in adventures with mom and dad--vacations, holidays, visits to grandparents. In this second book of a five-volume series about his children, Louis Daniel Brodsky chronicles the progress of his daughter, as she grows by leaps and bounds, and the evolution of his family, which is soon to grow as well, with the birth of a second child.
Book Synopsis At Shore's Border by : Louis Daniel Brodsky
Download or read book At Shore's Border written by Louis Daniel Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2012-07-10 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Louis Daniel Brodsky's At Shore's Border: Poems of Lake Nebagamon offers a range of pleasures. Recalling Whitman in his effortless prose-like rhythms, Thoreau in his immersion in a single natural setting, and Emerson in his rapturous encounter with nature's mobile cast of creatures and settings, Brodsky joins company with earlier American romantics, yet speaks in his own inimitable voice. The self's encounter with nature is at once an inexhaustible American story and Brodsky's compellinig personal theme.
Download or read book Shadow War written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2013-07-16 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting on April 22, 2002, and concluding on June 16, 2002, Louis Daniel Brodsky's Shadow War, Volume Four traces the primary sources of terrorism that erupted in America on September 11: Israel, India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. These poems describe, in bold detail, the desperation of Palestinians and Israelis trying to survive what appears to be an intractable knot of hatred and retaliation. Suicide bombers, demonstrating the depths of radical depravity, are at the center of many of these pieces, as is the Israeli military, frustrated by its inability to deter them. The specter of nuclear war looms as well, in vivid poetic accounts of the political and religious tensions assailing India and Pakistan throughout their struggle to resolve the fate of Kashmir. Brodsky also examines the fledgling government of Afghanistan, as Hamid Karzai strives, with the help of the United States, to keep civil war from regaining control of his country.
Download or read book Pigskinizations written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Pigskinizations, L.D. Brodsky's seventh book of short fictions, a potpourri of functionally dysfunctional characters assembles itself for public inspection: a married man with a snoring problem, who finds complete bliss on his porch; a couple who've found separation to be the secret to the perfect marriage, and another, who prematurely celebrate the termination of their ant infestation; an apartment dweller who has a commuter train running through his bedroom; an evangelical peddler of insecticide and a traveling salesman purveying marital aids to a drug-addled poet; a college student with an arousing tattoo; an animal lover who revels in "walking" his pet boa constrictor; and two men who see themselves for what they really are -- an ape and a dinosaur. And through six of the stories, Brodsky's foul-mouthed, language-butchering auto-assembly-line worker survives the "K-Y2 viral," to "celebate Nude Year's Eve" and the "Stupor Bowl 34 x 2 +1" victory of his hometown "St. Louis Cardinal Rams."

Book Synopsis Eying Widening Horizons by : Louis Brodsky
Download or read book Eying Widening Horizons written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2013-06-27 with total page 87 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fifth and concluding volume of The Seasons of Youth, Louis Daniel Brodsky celebrates his girl's and boy's passage into teenage years, his daughter progressing from age eleven to sixteen and his son from seven to thirteen. Both parents relive their own youths, as their children experience the joys, adventures, and challenges of this formative time. Their son goes to summer camp -- his first trip away from home -- and joins a soccer team and the Cub Scouts. Their daughter begins taking interest in cultural events, by going to weekly dance classes and by occasionally attending the symphony, with her father. During this time, both son and daughter encounter the gravity of death, when they lose pets and, much more powerfully, their mother's brother, their beloved "Uncle Duck." Contrasting with their parents' comforting presence during these milestones is the subtly evolving prospect of divorce. All of these elements unfold before the children, as they eye widening horizons that beckon them to journey toward the adult world, where they'll soon take their places.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book's thirty-eight poems stitch Brodsky's "awareness of days passing" into a crazy-quilt whose patches are the beautifully detailed memories captured from his daily life at home in Farmington, Missouri, his business trips throughout the Midwest, and his vacations to Fort Lauderdale, with his wife.
Download or read book Dine-Rite written by Louis Daniel Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Have a seat at a table or booth in Louis Daniel Brodsky's DINE-RITE: BREAKFAST POEMS. Everyone's welcome. As Brodsky puts it, this suburban diner is an "Oasis to the white- and blue-collar and the collarless: / Contractors, carpenters, painters, and plumbers, / Insurance and sales reps, cab drivers, loafers, / Grass-roots politicians, divorce lawyers, retirees, / The entire cast of the human drama, / Under one home-cooking-spoken-here roof." And overlording this melting pot is its owner, a corpulent, self-anointed Baptist minister, whose unique brand of evangelism permeates Dine-Rite as thoroughly as the greasy, smoky air that wafts from the kitchen. If you're hungry for poetry that both satisfies and leaves you wanting more, then you've come to the right place. Dig in!
Book Synopsis Showdown with a Cactus by : Louis Brodsky
Download or read book Showdown with a Cactus written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2013-06-27 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While history may withhold its judgment of President George W. Bush, for several more years, Brodsky, in Showdown with a Cactus, sees no reason to wait. In 101 poems, he relentlessly questions the motives behind the foreign and domestic policies of our forty-third president, with special attention paid to the disastrous military excursion into Iraq. Bush's cabinet and advisors, also, are treated to Brodsky's sometimes scathing examination, as is the complacency of many American citizens, who, in the poem "Re: Election," are only too happy to ignore the state of the world: "Sing Hallelujah! George the Lord has risen!"
Book Synopsis Getting to Unknow the Neighbors by : Louis Daniel Brodsky
Download or read book Getting to Unknow the Neighbors written by Louis Daniel Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2012-06-26 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiction. GETTING TO UNKNOW THE NEIGHBORS is a collection of short fictions, by L. D. Brodsky, that presents the reader with one of the strangest casts of misfits in contemporary literature. Many of these characters dwell in an apartment building that seems to be located in a Kafkaesque twilight zone. GETTING TO UNKNOW THE NEIGHBORS is a true masterpiece of the bizarre.
Book Synopsis The World Waiting to Be by : Louis Brodsky
Download or read book The World Waiting to Be written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2012-10-09 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fifty-eight-poem collection, Brodsky examines the highs and lows authors experience as they practice their craft. Portraying everything from writer's block and the terror of the blank page to the overwhelming joy of finishing a work, The World Waiting To Be is both lamentation and love song to creative inspiration and the intersection of time and eternity, in the act of writing.
Book Synopsis At Dock's End by : Louis Daniel Brodsky
Download or read book At Dock's End written by Louis Daniel Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2012-05-07 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps the only thing as dear to Louis Daniel Brodsky as the beauty of the written word are his memories and experiences on the shores of Wisconsin's Lake Nebagamon, which the poet describes as "glory's hinterlands." The combination of his two passions is a wonderful example of the poetry of place--the kind of soul-forming and life-affirming locale that we all have somewhere in our lives. What the open road was to Whitman, the North Woods are to Brodsky.
Book Synopsis This Here's A Merica by : Louis Brodsky
Download or read book This Here's A Merica written by Louis Brodsky and published by Time Being Books. This book was released on 2013-07-23 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With This Here's a Merica, L. D. Brodsky reprises his auto-factory-assembly-line worker from south St. Louis, first introduced in Yellow Bricks and Catchin' the Drift o' the Draft. In one of the six pieces that bind the collection, this lovable redneck, who takes the English language all the way back to its murky origins, hosts a "Stupor Bowl Tailgate Key Party," in which he and his three buddies know the score of the game even before it starts and what trophies they'll win: the house keys and wives they swap for the night. We also join him on his extended "lunch break" from the car plant to a "sportin' bar" on the East Side, where Julie No-Name, between performances, indulges him in an "afternoon delight." Other characters jump from the pages as well, including a Vietnam vet, now a doorman, who finds himself transported back to the war whenever it rains, shooting wildly at passing cars with his umbrella as he escorts residents to and from their apartment building. In a postmodern examination of the writing process itself, Brodsky chronicles the rise of another intriguing individual -- a sous-chef who begins his career at a fowl facility, rendering chicken parts into words, and eventually becomes the toast of Manhattan for transforming gizzards into Petrarchan sonnets, necks into short stories. These unique protagonists, and the others in this volume's forty-two fast-paced fictions, lead the reader through a house of mirrors in which everyday reality is twisted in ways magically satirical and absurdly surreal. Their distorted reflections, which become strikingly familiar to us as we recognize our own afflictions and foibles in them, hover in the subconscious long after This Here's a Merica is closed.
