The book starts at the end of the story and through the vignettes of the ups and downs of living with him and how a person’s past can follow them wherever they go. The story ends where it started. The love story between the couple who met late in life is dramatic and quite heated.

  Allow yourself 
  To illuminate the night 
  And shine like the stars

  Irradiations - Emotional and...

  John Gould Fletcher

  John Gould Fletcher was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on 3rd January 1886 to a socially prominent family.  
  He was educated at Phillips Academy, Andover before advancing to Harvard University which he attended from 1903 to 1907, before dropping out after his father's death. 
  As a young man Fletcher spent many years in England where he became part of the influential Imagist group of poets together with Amy Lowell and Ezra Pound.   
  His first marriage came from a resumed relationship with the now married Florence Emily ‘Daisy’ Arbuthnot. Her adultery with Fletcher was the grounds for her divorce from Malcolm Arbuthnot.  They married on 5th July 1916 but later divorced.  
  Fletcher first published in 1912, with ‘The Dominant City’ too much praise and admiration and followed this with other well-regarded volumes such as ‘Irradiations: Sand and Spray’, and ‘Goblins and Pagodas’. 
  In the late 1920s and 1930s Fletcher became increasingly active with a group of Southern writers and poets known as the Southern Agrarians. They published the classic ‘I'll Take My Stand: The South and the Agrarian Tradition’. 
  Although he was highly regarded as a poet he was not very prolific.  However, such was the undoubted quality that in 1939 he received the Pulitzer Prize for his work ‘Selected Poems’.  He was the first poet from the south to receive such an accolade.  Fletcher’s other passion and pursuit was as an authority on modern painting, a subject on which he also published. 
  A second marriage followed in 1936 to the children’s author, Charlie May Simon. They built ‘Johnswood’, a residence on the bluffs of the Arkansas River and travelled frequently to New York for shots of modern culture and intellectual stimulation as well as to the American West and South for the climate after Fletcher developed chronic arthritis. 
  In 1937 he wrote his autobiography, ‘Life is My Song’. 
  His developing passion for his roots and background resulted in the writing of a history of his State and published in 1947; ‘Arkansas’. 
  By now Fletcher was suffering from bouts of depression and on 10th May 1950, he committed suicide by drowning himself in a pond near his home in Little Rock, Arkansas.

  The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
  But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
  Between the Coasts of the United States lie the endless plains of the Mid-West.  Its vast landscapes have been home to some of its greatest wordsmiths who, with but the aid of 26 letters, have created and illuminated the thoughts and ambitions of a whole Nation.

  The Apothecary of Flight

  Jane Burn

  The Apothecary of Flight by Jane Burn is a heady flight into the art of poetry itself: its vital importance as a tool for expression; for understanding and translating the self; for articulating the sheer force and joy of poetry and the way, for a person with autism, it can hold, identify and celebrate both the smallest and weightiest of life's experiences and concepts.
  These unfettered and exquisite poems pulse with the details of both the wild and tame, the sacred and the humane – observing nature and animals with an artist's eye, capturing the ways in which place and time can hold the experiences of the body, memory and identity. This ongoing dialogue with poetry itself sets a visionary path towards discovery – the page as a place to root oneself, a place of deep creative freedom, self-permission, belonging and defiance. Ultimately, the form, presence and physicality of Burn's extraordinary poems move us with compassion towards the happiest solitude of words, and of love.

  Written during the profound global upheaval between 2019 and 2023, In Water Not Blood braids ancient traditions of nature-based spirituality, dreaming, song and prayer with the realities and anxieties of modern life. These poems are as much soft and spiritual as they are rage-filled and disillusioned.  A powerful account of the author's journey to reclaim her connection to her ancestors and to the Earth. In Water Not Blood is a celebration of the healing power of nature and art and is an urgent cry for collective transformation.
