Book Synopsis Ping Pong Poems by : Susan Campbell and Christine Irving
Download or read book Ping Pong Poems written by Susan Campbell and Christine Irving and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2019-06-19 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Ping Pong Poems, Christine Irving and Susan Campbell create a living conversation that explores the poets' backgrounds and wide-ranging interests. In contrast to the acrimony and recriminations that seem to pervade our world, these friends exchange ideas clothed in striking metaphors-like friends meeting over coffee-one topic connecting cognitively to the next subject and then round again. In this collection, each poem acts as an inspiration for the next poem so that each is both follower and leader in a continuing round of mutual exploration. As the process unwinds and develops interplay, natural affinities are revealed, sometimes spiraling in surprising ways to reach the same ends from two very different directions.Ping Pong signals a willingness to play with words and to participate in our inner lives and with the world-and with each other! That's the heart of writing, isn't it, a tenet that we must keep alive and urgent, or else, as Marvin Bell writes in Segues, "all fall down." Dialoging has proved to be more than just a way to hone my craft. I am enchanted with the unexpected ways these dialogs move us through time and space. The intimacy inherent in the conscious and unconscious revelation of our authentic selves touches me deeply. I am grateful for Susan's faithful responses and the amazing breadth of her knowledge, which continues to expand and enrich my understanding of our amazing world. We live a fair distance from one another and rarely find time for a face to face leisurely conversation. Dialog allows us to cultivate friendship in a new way. The longer I live, the more I enjoy having friends with whom to share a deep appreciation for the workings of nature and the miraculous ever-unfolding mystery of creation. Such friends are precious beyond rubies. Susan is no exception.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Letter From the Editor, 2012Dear Reader,Thank you for picking up this magazine. Inside you will find a world of wonders. If you are like most people you will flick through and look at the art first. We are proud to feature gallery prints from iconic photographer Kim Weston. The art editor and I met Kim a few years ago at the Henry Miller Library over dinner, and have been trying to get his beautiful photographs in our magazine ever since. It is thanks to the dogged tenacity of River Tabor that we are able to feature work by an astounding member of the Weston dynasty.Tim Youd did an entire art exhibit based on a passage out of Henry Miller's Tropic of Capricorn. We have a poem by Big Sur visitor and raconteur Richard Brautigan. This poem seems to embody the internal landscape of the author. We are fortunate to have so many talented people in the planisphere that is the Henry Miller Memorial library, and are happy to have so many West Coast writers and artists featured in this issue. The Library is an amazing cultural venue, a local's hang out, a bookstore, a concert venue, and a film theatre, but it is also a fragile watershed. Our commitment to keeping this delicate ecosystem in check is part of why this year we have launched into our capital fundraising campaign, in an effort to retrofit Emil White's little cabin into a place that hosts such acts as Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth.I met Thurston on a damp afternoon at the library. I am not an interviewer per say, but I do love listening to people's stories. Thurston Moore and I talked about poetry and art under a persimmon tree, the interview featured herein is the fruit...The East Coast is always well represented since half of our editors live in Brooklyn, which I like to call the poetry capital of the U.S. of A. We have the wondrous poets Leah Umansky, J. Hope Stein, Joanna Penn Cooper and Angela Wong featuredEnjoy!Maria Garcia Teutsch

Book Synopsis Twenty Poems That Could Save America and Other Essays by : Tony Hoagland
Download or read book Twenty Poems That Could Save America and Other Essays written by Tony Hoagland and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fearless, wide-ranging book on the state of poetry and American literary culture by Tony Hoagland, the author of What Narcissism Means to Me Live American poetry is absent from our public schools. The teaching of poetry languishes, and that region of youthful neurological terrain capable of being ignited only by poetry is largely dark, unpopulated, and silent, like a classroom whose shades are drawn. This is more than a shame, for poetry is our common treasure-house, and we need its vitality, its respect for the subconscious, its willingness to entertain ambiguity, its plaintive truth-telling, and its imaginative exhibitions of linguistic freedom, which confront the general culture's more grotesque manipulations. We need the emotional training sessions poetry conducts us through. We need its previews of coming attractions: heartbreak, survival, failure, endurance, understanding, more heartbreak. —from "Twenty Poems That Could Save America" Twenty Poems That Could Save America presents insightful essays on the craft of poetry and a bold conversation about the role of poetry in contemporary culture. Essays on the "vertigo" effects of new poetry give way to appraisals of Robert Bly, Sharon Olds, and Dean Young. At the heart of this book is an honesty and curiosity about the ways poetry can influence America at both the private and public levels. Tony Hoagland is already one of this country's most provocative poets, and this book confirms his role as a restless and perceptive literary and cultural critic.
Book Synopsis Ping-Pong Diplomacy by : Nicholas Griffin
Download or read book Ping-Pong Diplomacy written by Nicholas Griffin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2014-01-07 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Combining the insight of Franklin Foer’s How Soccer Explains the World and the intrigue of Ben Affleck’s Argo, Ping Pong Diplomacy traces the story of how an aristocratic British spy used the game of table tennis to propel a Communist strategy that changed the shape of the world. THE SPRING OF 1971 heralded the greatest geopolitical realignment in a generation. After twenty-two years of antagonism, China and the United States suddenly moved toward a détente—achieved not by politicians but by Ping-Pong players. The Western press delighted in the absurdity of the moment and branded it “Ping-Pong Diplomacy.” But for the Chinese, Ping-Pong was always political, a strategic cog in Mao Zedong’s foreign policy. Nicholas Griffin proves that the organized game, from its first breath, was tied to Communism thanks to its founder, Ivor Montagu, son of a wealthy English baron and spy for the Soviet Union. Ping-Pong Diplomacy traces a crucial intersection of sports and society. Griffin tells the strange and tragic story of how the game was manipulated at the highest levels; how the Chinese government helped cover up the death of 36 million peasants by holding the World Table Tennis Championships during the Great Famine; how championship players were driven to their deaths during the Cultural Revolution; and, finally, how the survivors were reconvened in 1971 and ordered to reach out to their American counterparts. Through a cast of eccentric characters, from spies to hippies and Ping-Pong-obsessed generals to atom-bomb survivors, Griffin explores how a neglected sport was used to help realign the balance of worldwide power.
