This latest collection of poems by Anne Hartigan brings us daringly through the minefield avoided by less courageous writers who see Cliche written wherever Love appears. These poems are in the main about love, the fury, the pain, the passion and the loss that goes with it. Anne Hartigan's voice is distinctive. She speaks as a lover who has borne children and has seen their children born. In this collection she celebrates sensuousness, lusty, treacheous, messy and inescapably human. Like the best poets, she brings us to new awareness with many expected things, 'birds slicing the air', These are skilful and honest poems. They have their own particular music and move like the feet of a dancer, weaving in and out her themes of love failed, denied, lost, achieved. Few contemporary poets handle the themes of love and loss with such vigour and truthfulness. 149 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.) ., Salmon Pub, 1993, London: W.Heinemann, 1969. 1st edition.

Its about sex, honesty, sadness, falling in and out of love, firsts and lasts, awkward moments. Its my secrets and yours. Sometimes I run across a poem that makes me second guess my opinion on poetry. It could be a line in the poem that impresses me. Or a person in the poem that makes me wonder what hed be like in another situation. Or a relationship that makes me want to know if it worked out. Or a memory I have while reading the poem. For me, Piano Rats by Franki Elliot had all of the above. Shamontiel L. Vaughn, Chicago Tribune. The 44 pieces in Franki Elliotts Piano Rats are like the best kind of chance meetingsweird and unsettling, specific and transformative. They are Frank OHara meets Ellen Kennedy, first kiss meets fuck off, hell meets rainstorm, poetry meets prose, narrative meets lyric, trailer park meets city street. But they are also entirely themselves, places where you remember who you wanted to be. Kathleen Rooney, author of Oneiromance (an epithalamion), managing editor of Rose Metal Press. The book is a collection of deeply personal pieces, arranged as free verse poems, though Elliot calls them stories. And they do read as stories, the kind told around a kitchen tableor even, in the case of Nothing, a recounting of a story that happened while a story was being told around a kitchen table. Most of them detail a down-and-out cast with unbroken spirits, people who predict early deaths but live as if they dont believe it. And at the books core is a sense of loss, if not of a specific personas the dedication would indicatethen certainly of a sense of comfort. . . . Clocking in at a brief 70 pages, the poems, stories or prose poemspick your termfluctuate from sandpapery interactions between family members or lovers to dreamlike sequences in which linear narrative disappears. And theres a good deal of humor in there, too. Jonathan Messinger, books editor of Timeout Chicago. Piano Rats is an homage to being stuck between where youve been and where you still might go. Its just that you havent quite figured out how to escape where youve been and frankly you have know no idea what comes next. And it is this tension of stuckness in all its messy, druggy, sometimes hopeful, youthful confusion that lives here in these poems and explodes across these pages, all oozy and terribly electric. Ben Tanzer, author of Most Likely You Go Your Way and Ill Go Mine, 99 Problems, My Fathers House, and You Can Make Him Like You, among others. Franki Elliot exposes what most bury beneath layers of shallow conversations, bottles of alcohol, and innuendo. She will subtly make you love her and hate her in the matter of a few well placed lines. Jason Behrands, managing editor of Orange Alert Press. This item ships from multiple locations.

He has received three National Endowment for the Arts grants and is a former Guggenheim fellow. He lives in Atlanta.' - rear dust jacket flap. ' "The Cradle Place" is the new collection from Thomas Lux, a self-described "recovering surrealist" and winner of the Kingsley Tufts Award. These fifty-two poems bring to full life the "refreshing iconoclasms" Rita Dove so admired in Lux's earlier work. His voice is plainspoken but moody, humorous and edgy, and ever surprising. These are philosophical poems that ask questions about language and intention, about the sometimes untidy connections between the human and natural worlds. In the poem "Terminal Lake," Lux undermines notions of benign nature, finding dark currents beneath the surface: "it's a huge black coin, / it's as if the real lake is drained / and this lake is the drain: gaping, language- / less, suck- and sinkhole." In the ominous "Render, Render," the narrator asks us to consider a concentration of the essences of our lives: all that is physical, spiritual, remembered, and dreamed for, melded together to make the messy self we present to the world. Lux's voice is intelligent without being bookish, urgent and unrelentingly evocative. He has long been a strong advocate for the relevance of poetry in American culture. The Los Angeles Times praises Lux for his "compelling rhythms, his biting irony, and his steady devotion to a craft that often seems thankless." As Sven Birkerts noted, "Lux may be one of the poets on whom the future of the genre depends."' - front dust jacket flap., Houghton Mifflin Company, 2004, Riverhaven Books. Paperback. New.

Yet, we still find ourselves with minutes here and there, brief periods of time when we can be alone to pause, to wonder, and to consider. These are the times for the short story, the poem, the essay. In this collection Vaughn Keller takes us in many different directions. Some of the short stories have a Noir feel to them. The scenes are current, intense, and raise moral questions. From the streets of New York to Anytown, U. S. A. , these are real people encountering intense moments of life. Similarly, the essays take on significant issues and are infused within a questioning sensibility, a wondering about the moral compasses that guide us in the midst of rhetorical screaming that refuses to admit to the messiness of life. From the communication between physician and patient to the failure of the Pro-choice movement to offer a logical argument, Keller doesnt shy away from the controversial or the politically incorrect. By contrast, the poems are personal. Some are unabashed love poems, comfortable in the lyrical tradition of poems through the ages. Keller is a New Englander, sensitive to the changes in seasons and the metaphors that they insist upon. This item ships from multiple locations.

There are quite enough unpleasant things in life without the need for us to manufacture more. The imagination of a child, full of fantasy creatures, and heroic kids, is a world set apart. Taking children on an adventure artistically through fairy tales, picture books, and book jackets is something I especially enjoy. I love listening to folk tales and telling stories, and my artwork mirrors that love. I specialize in my ability to instill human qualities in my animal characters, and my rich use of watercolor.

Breast cancer runs rampant in her family; both her mother and her thirty-two-year old sister died of the disease and another sister has been diagnosed with its late stages. Her father also fell victim to cancer, this time pancreatic. The poems in Browns stunning first book pivot around the mechanisms we use in facing loss and fear-whether those confrontations are as wrenching as a bone marrow transplant or as confused as a brief love. In lyric verses with a driving narrative force, the poet depicts loved ones coping with illness, sometimes achieving recovery, and reshaping a family. From his hospital bed a father relates the color of his pain-killers, the in-and-out narcotic conversations of the doomed. A woman recalls Baltimore, where her sister received treatment, as a city of doctors, messy brain scans, slick cobblestoned lanes thick with Christmas. She returns to the spot where her sisters cremated remains were scattered, relishing the secrets of ashes, the clean wash of lake water like all the nights we sat with the little waves lapping. An unusually intimate collection, Year of Morphines is both a heartbreaking portrait of the process of death and encouraging evidence of lifes perserverance. This item ships from multiple locations.

État d'usage: très bon etat 299 pp.Théologien, poète et dominicain québécois, Edmond Robillard (Hyacinthe-Marie en religion) fut un grand spécialiste du christianisme primitif. Né en 1917 à St-Paul-l'Ermite (aujourd'hui Le Gardeur), ordonné prêtre en 1941, il obtint, en 1947, son doctorat en théologie, ayant pour sujet « La Trinité dans les âmes saintes selon Thomas d'Aquin ». De 1955 à 1983, il enseigna la théologie à l'Université de Montréal, et se fit l'ardent défenseur des traditions catholique et gréco-latine dans les débats sur l'éducation et la laïcisation qui marquèrent la société québécoise. Son ouvrage le plus important, Nos racines chrétiennes dans l'histoire d'Israël et du monde méditerranéen, témoigne de sa profonde connaissance des fondements théologiques et historiques du christianisme. Robillard est aussi l'auteur d'études pénétrantes sur le dogme de la rédemption, sur le suicide et sur la réincarnation, et de poèmes aux accents tragiques ou romantiques, réunis dans le recueil Du temps que le goglu chantait. Il a traduit en français deux oeuvres majeures du cardinal John Henry Newman, L'idée d'université et Les conférences sur la doctrine de la justification, et a collaboré à plusieurs périodiques, dont la Revue Dominicaine et la Revue biblique. Il est membre de la Société des Écrivains et de l'Académie des Lettres du Québec. Il vient de publier deux livres: Théisme et athéisme, un essai sur la déchristianisation de l'Occident, et L'Homme - Jésus Messie, une réflexion théologique sur le mystère de l'Incarnation.., Editions Fidas, 1985, MOTES. Paperback. New. Paperback. 92 pages. Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 0.2in.With engaging frankness shooting through unexpectedly at times to keep this Psalm-related collection from falling too far into seriousness, poet Charles A. Swanson provides a healthy take on religion that is diverse, human and sometimes even messy. AFTER THE GARDEN: SELECTED RESPONSES TO THE PSALMS holds poems that are rich in imagery, deep in metaphor and populated with vivid characters . . . a preacher mourning his torched church, a longing farmwife endlessly grading tobacco, a boy who hides behind the stove when he knows hes been naughty, a mother who stains her dress helping her father-in-law gather from his garden. There is humor, too, bringing essential and startling variety to this collection. AFTER THE GARDEN journeys into the heart, the head, the groin of the individual before his maker. These poems, like the Psalms themselves, are full of questions: Where is God in pain, in loss, in drought, in family history This is a book neither of paraphrases nor of praises, though a sense of thanksgiving breathes throughout. This is not a book of easy answers to tough questions. It is a search within the journey, a search through which the person seeking God can find his or her own struggle mirrored in the lines of these modern poems. (www.

The result is poetry that bristles with raw heart, startling imagery, and a nurturing and wild love for language.

Well reader, carefully mark these poems. They are filled with surprises in form and phrasing and in their recognition of messy humanity. They are honest and subtly noble.

At a time when I had no job, very little money and lived at my parents home because mine was in foreclosure. The book began this way because while I was losing so many things I realized I was gaining something too. I started to have a lot of free time. I filled some of the time with mind numbing activities; TV, video games, and the internet. Then, I said to myself, what you are doing is killing time, but its not constructive. How can I use this free time to make forward progress in this messy, confusing life What I came up with was WRITE! So, I did, and the result are the pages you are about to read. The title is the question I chose to ponder. WHO AM I That is a big question. It will take more than these pages of short stories and poems here to answer but this is a good start for me. Writing is a risk, because you expose and open yourself up for people to see. People comment on what you write; they love it, hate it, they dont understand, or they understand it completely. It hits both ends of the spectrum. But, by letting people read what you write, you gain insight and knowledge, and hopefully they do also. Knowledge and insight equals forward progress, and forward progress equals positive change which is good for everyone. This item ships from multiple locations.

She holds the mirror of reflection up to us as we see what we have overlooked as she expresses her innermost feelings on love, faith, life, artful living, mortality and self-actualization as daughter, wife, mother, friend, artist and independent woman. As the years pass, she chooses to leave behind the messy, burned parts, the disappointments, the unloved parts, the betrayals, and instead embraces the strength, hope and joy that brings peace and purpose to the very essence of the self. Diana Lathrop-Bouchard, Rise Member, Rivier College In her fifth full-length collection, Martha Deborah Hall explores the gifts and vagaries of aging in a voice that is both arresting and as clear as a vinegar-scrubbed window through which she shows us slices of the human condition with poignancy, humor, and a hard-earned gravitas. An astute observer of contemporary life both inside and out she offers poems that sparkle with fresh imagery, well-placed turns of phrase, and a deftly-crafted music that never loses the clean edge of ordinary speech. From her compelling free verse to her dazzling use of traditional forms, she asks the vital question of the later stage of life: As we achieve our sunset and head toward silver dust what will be our testimony and answers it in kind. A must-read! Kate Gleason, author of Measuring the Dark (selected by Phillis Levin as the winner of the First Book Award at Zone 3 Press) and director of Writers Submit, an editing and literary submitting service In Heading Toward Silver Dust, the fifth expose in the life of Martha Deborah Hall, she travels through middle age and beyond, staring down the questions we are afraid to ask. Reflecting upon regrets, angry seas, poignant memories, she resolves to continue along the uncharted road, pondering, Whose engine will my leftover car keys start With a zest for life, humorous insight, and tangled emotions, Hall steers down the path of the human experience, with tender hands and the grace of a seasoned poet. Jane Gilman, author of Sunset, and Renewal, has accompanied Hall, on much of her journey, as the co-facilitator of Poets Unbound.

Lawrence: Being Alive: Selected Poems Edited with an introduction by Margaret Elvy D. H. Lawrences strident and idiosyncratic evocations of sex, touch, Spring, flowers, nature, love, black suns, fish and other glories are gathered here in this new selection. British Poets Series. Bibliography and notes. www. crmoon. com D. H. Lawrences poetry is far less known than his fiction. It is often loose, rather than fluid, and unstructured rather than free verse, and messy rather than well-defined. It is a poetry, as Lawrence stresses, of the moment, a poetry in the process of becoming, constantly dissolving. In the Foreword to his book Pansies, he wrote of that breathless transience, embodied for him in the life of a flower: the breath of the moment, and one eternal moment easily contradicting the next eternal moment. Only dont nail the pansy down. You wont keep it any better if you do. In the introduction to the American edition of New Poems, Lawrence wrote: Let me feel the mud and the heavens in my lotus. Let me feel the heavy, silting, sucking mud, the spinning of sky winds. Let me feel them both in purest contact, the nakedness of sucking weight, nakedly passing radiance. Give me nothing fixed, set, static. Dont give me the infinite or the eternal: nothing of infinity, nothing of eternity. Give me the still, white seething, the incandescence and the coldness of the incarnate moment: the moment, the quick of all change and haste and opposition: the moment, the immediate present, the Now. The immediate moment is not a drop of water running downstream. It is the source and issue, the bubbling up of the stream. Here, in this instant moment, up bubbles the stream of time, out of the wells of futurity, flowing on to the oceans of the past. The source, the issue, the creative quick. There is poetry of this immediate present, instant poetry, as well as poetry of the infinite past and the infinite future. The seething poetry of the incarnate Now is supreme, beyond even the everlasting of the before and after. Lawrences typical poetry occurs in poems such as Sicilian Cyclamens, Snake and Snap-Dragon, longish, loose poems with a lot space that allow Lawrence to explore his subject. Lawrence covers a surprisingly wide range of subjects in his poesie - far wider than, say, Robert Graves or Thomas Hardy or John Keats. Among poets, there is no one quite like him. Like every poet, he has his pet notions, and keeps hacking away at them: the river of blood of the Sons and Lovers era, the democracy of touch from Lady Chatterleys Lover, the Christological machismo of The Plumed Serpent lyrics, the hatred of labour, the love of all things Mediterranean, and the primacy of the body.

He looks to life issues within and without as he explores the paths we take and those we avoid, the fluctuating line between our dreams and realities, and the balancing act required to remain grounded as we grow. Hirschs poems are a welcome and wise distillation of lifes confusions and messy challenges. Said of his first book, Stares to Other Places, and of Roots and Paths: Hirschs two impressive first volumes of poetry-Stares to Other Places and Roots and Paths-are a delight to the heart as well as to the mind. With direct, accessible and splendidly crafted language, Hirsch gives voice to the everyday challenges of remaining worthy of the gift of life with all its ups and downs. I intend to keep both volumes handy for repeated, inspirational readings. Hirschs words will help his readers unlock their own minds and souls to their deepest hopes, fears, pain and pleasure. His readers will be grateful to him for sharing his special gifts of expression. Robert A. Cohn, Editor in ChiefPublisher, St. Louis Jewish Light This item ships from multiple locations.

The characters in the poems have names that are personality traits and the poems are parables containing moral lessons derived from the names. In this way, the ethical teachings come across clearly as the stories and characters unfold. My hope is that the subject matter creates a dialogue between parents and childrenteachers and students about the underlying message. In that sense, I hope the book is also a childrens book for adults and that it reminds us all of the importance of the moral imperative. The writing style pays homage to Shel Silverstein one of the most gifted poets at bridging the gap between young and old . . . and finding the little adults in children . . . and the little children in adults.

Rooted in real and imagined landscapes, the poems in this volume explore memory, art and language, asking above all what it is to be human. This new collection finds her adopting voices - human and animal, colloquial and historical - in her search for a proper viewing distance where lifes messy fragments fuse together, enabling us to understand our position - and negotiate our survival - in a troubling world where our tracks once told us where we were but which now seems, at times, no more than a shudder on the horizon.

A collection of power and humor in earthy eroticism, invoking both the fever and hope in wakeful dreams. A bold work of the elegiac past and the visceral present converging in provocative imagery. There is often an undercurrent of longing in Chase's poems--the longing of hunger, of sex, of unfinished business with the dead. Central to the collection is the title poem, a spiraling nightmare that explores the messy and terrifying commingling of religion, death and history's unpardonable sins.. Signed By Author.

Dimensions: 9.0in. x 6.0in. x 0.9in.I grew up in a loud house with a lot to say, finding much of it left behind for paper and music to find, she says about these scraps that were never intended to be poetry until she discovered thats what they were. Set to the sounds of TVs and telephones, constant interruptions and messy choices, Jonis voice captures the human struggle beneath zooming-by, ever-shifting American joy. Her lens moves through the various spheres of life, tearing things apart in a gentle, welcome way. Earthy, but not pseudo spiritual; grounded, but not heavy with brain-thick molasses, she is a wise every-day sister who genuinely celebrates the conquering of despair with a coke and a cookie from the 711 down the street. Her first contribution of this kind, this journey told in a handful of pieces-which she calls sisters to her songs-is part of the story behind her life. But the poetry is for you. For you to walk down the pathways she has marked, to experience the freedom in your own body to enjoy new truths. Its a glance through a window where youll find the moments of your day. And learn something about what you see. This item ships from multiple locations. Your book may arrive from Roseburg,OR, La Vergne,TN., iUniverse, Inc., RareBooksClub. Paperback. New.
