Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evanston Poets In all the world there is no place quite like Evanston. It has sometimes been called a New England town, set down in the West, but while it has the classic atmosphere of the best of the centers of the East, it has more. The broad, free liberty of the West obtains, and united with the culture of the East makes for a splendid intellectual freedom. Every form of art has its prophet here and none in a greater degree than that wooed by the weavers of melody. Among them all there may not be one who sings for all time, but there are many whose graceful lines will live long to inspire and charm the lovers of true and tender verse. It has been a delight to gather these songsof my talented townsmen and give them per manent form. This IS but a poor monu ment to their work, and yet one, I venture, that will be proudly treasured by all who joy in things that make life worth living. William C. Levere. February 12, 1903.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Evanstonians: A Paper Read Before the Evanston Historical Society, February 7th, 1916 On the eastern boundary the winds and waves of Old Lake Michigan-then known as the Lake of the Illinois, blew and rolled as in these modern days. The calm summer sea and the glory of the sunrise, meaning then as much to the Red Man as these days to the White, and probably sometimes more, for a calm sea afforded navigation with a canoe and the Sun was the emblem of the Great Spirit. Sand dunes and scrub oak groves lined the shores from the Chicago Creek to the site of modern Davis Street in Evanston, and from there northward to Little Fort, now Waukegan, were the high bluffs ever changing their align ment with the march of time and the roar of the waves, and there was the great forest as in recent days, presenting a shore line of such beauty and interest, especially in autumn, as to cause repeated comment and description by the early writers. From Little Fort to the Land of the Wisconsins, again sand dunes and the low country with its adjacent bluffs and ravines as one sees it today; rich then as now, as experts tell us, in a greater variety of trees. Wild ﬂowers and shrubs than any other one locality of the known world. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The instant New York Times bestseller featured on NPR's Weekend Edition with Scott Simon! B. J. Novak (bestselling author of The Book With No Pictures) described this groundbreaking poetry collection as "Smart and sweet, wild and wicked, brilliantly funny--it's everything a book for kids should be." Lauded by critics as a worthy heir to such greats as Silverstein, Seuss, Nash and Lear, Harris's hilarious debut molds wit and wordplay, nonsense and oxymoron, and visual and verbal sleight-of-hand in masterful ways that make you look at the world in a whole new wonderfully upside-down way. With enthusiastic endorsements from bestselling luminaries such as Lemony Snicket, Judith Viorst, Andrea Beaty, and many others, this entirely unique collection offers a surprise around every corner. Adding to the fun: Lane Smith, bestselling creator of beloved hits like It's a Book and The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales, has spectacularly illustrated this extraordinary collection with nearly one hundred pieces of appropriately absurd art. It's a mischievous match made in heaven! "Ridiculous, nonsensical, peculiar, outrageous, possibly deranged--and utterly, totally, absolutely delicious. Read it! Immediately!" --Judith Viorst, bestselling author of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edwin Paxton Hood, Poet and Preacher: A Memorial Dxvin paxton hood was born in Half Moon Street, Piccadilly, October 24, 1820, and was the son of a naval officer who had served, through all the Nelson victories, in the old Tememire. He entered life in the same year as Baldwin Brown (whom he closely resembled in several notable respects), and closed it, or, shall we say, emerged into its fuller and completer development, just a year after his life-long friend; a singular coincidence in the closing hours of the two men being that both were suddenly summoned to their rest just as they were making their final preparations for the summer holiday, and the goal of both being Switzerland.

A little book of verses, the manuscript of another, a one-act play in verse, a few short stories, two novels written in collabo ration, some translations from the French, done for money that is all that was left by a man who was undoubtedly a man of genius, not a great poet, but a poet, one of the very few writers of our generation to whom that name can be applied in its most intimate sense. People will complain, probably, in his verses, of what will seem to them the factitious melancholy, the factitious idealism, and (peeping through at a few rare moments) the.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Poetical Works of Edward Rowland Sill The first attempt to gather Mr. Sill's poems into a sin gle volume was made in 1902, when Messrs. Hough ton, Miﬂlin and Company issued a limited edition, combining the three small volumes previously pub lished by them, and adding a few pieces never before collected. The compiler of that edition, Mr. William Belmont Parker, has also edited the present House/yold Edition, and has here arranged all the poems as nearly as possible in their chronological order. This new and more satisfactory grouping has prevented his making full use of the group titles that have become familiar to Mr. Sill's readers, but he has retained them as far as the conditions permit. The kind cooperation of Mrs. Sill, and Of other surviving friends of the poet, has also made it possible to enlarge the collection materially, so that it contains all of his poetical writ ings that it is thought desirable to preserve.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reginald Gibbons collects here a lifetime s worth of thoughts on composing and translating poetry. Not a manifesto or a general theory of the lyric, rather, the book explores how a poem thinks: that is, what results from the circumstances of a poet s native language, choice of words and topics, the mentality that the poet shares with other writers, and the range of poetic possibilities (and limitations) in a given language. Through exemplary case studies taken from his own experience in writing poetry, as well as in translating poetry from languages ranging from Sophocles s and Pindar s ancient Greek to their contemporary French, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish successors, Gibbons traces the curious persistence of classical modes and images into the twenty-first century. He shows how the very language used in composing a poem, be it ancient Greek, Renaissance English, or contemporary Russian, both limits and enables how a poet thinks and what the poet can say. Even in describing difficult poetic concepts and operations, Gibbons writes in a clear, companionable style, entirely accessible not just to practicing poets, but also to general readers interested in poetry, and to writers of various stripes interested in the way our native language can often circumscribe what and how we think poetically, and affect how we compose poetry and prose. This book joins other titles by this award-winning writer on the Press s list."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The graphic novel is the most exciting literary format to emerge in the past thirty years. Among its more inspired uses has been the superlative adaptation of literary classics. Unlike the comic book abridgments aimed at young readers of an earlier era, today's graphic novel adaptations are created for an adult audience, and capture the subtleties of sophisticated written works. This first ever collection of essays focusing on graphic novel adaptations of various literary classics demonstrates how graphic narrative offers new ways of understanding the classics, including the works of Homer, Poe, Flaubert, Conrad and Kafka, among many others.
