  Tripas - Poems

  WINNER OF THE 2024 PULITZER PRIZE IN POETRYFinalist for the 2023 National Book Award for PoetryWith Tripas, Brandon Som follows up his award-winning debut with a book of poems built out of a multicultural, multigenerational childhood home, in which he celebrates his Chicana grandmother, who worked nights on the assembly line at Motorola, and his Chinese American father and grandparents, who ran the family corner store. Enacting a cómo se dice poetics, a dialogic poem-making that inventively listens to heritage languages and transcribes family memory, Som participates in a practice of mem(oir), placing each poem's ear toward a confluence of history, labor, and languages, while also enacting a kind of "telephone" between cultures. Invested in the circuitry and circuitous routes of migration and labor, Som's lyricism weaves together the narratives of his transnational communities, bringing to light what is overshadowed in the reckless transit of global capitalism and imagining a world otherwise―one attuned to the echo in the hecho, the oracle in the órale.

  In this song-like collection of 50 short poems inspired by rural Prince Edward Island, Canada, Roderick MacDonald elevates the commonplace and simple in entertaining and thoughtful verse. 
  Through his poetry MacDonald invites the listener to accompany him on a gentle walk through the changing seasons on his beloved island. His words evoke the beach: sand under foot, lapping waves, and spectacular sunsets anointing old, abandoned lighthouses. He celebrates the harvests of both land and ocean. With him we tread red-dirt roads past fields of barley and tiny fishing harbours. We feel the island’s rhythms and glimpse its treasures: soaring eagles, shimmering lakes, and crackling campfires at end of the day…. 
  Listen now and be transported!

  This book is the last volume of "Kevin Goes to Japan."　Now Yukio, Tomoko, and Yumiko have arrived in London. How could Yumiko talk to Kevin with her honest feeling toward him? 
  1. London After 17 Years  
  2. Yukio's Yukio's Nostalgic Memories  
  3. It Is Like a Moth Flying into the Flame?  
  4. Mature Woman  
  5. Are You a Hetare?  
  6. Jumping Off the Stage in Kiyomizu Temple  
  7. Eternal Love  
  8. The True Identity of Tomoko the Yandere  
  9. Already Being a Domineering Husband?  
  135 JLPT sample questions and word lists come with the story. 
  This reading level is almost N1 level because the story goes towards an end, and I wanted to focus on more plots and how the characters feel. Also, the setting is in the UK, which makes word lists longer. Reading my book does not mean that you will be able to speak Japanese fluently, but I believe you will have improved your reading comprehension skills because I made it progressively more difficult from 1 to 4. 
  The paperback versions will be released soon to check the word lists and practice sample questions for some of you. 
  I hope you keep learning Japanese through the bilingual novel entitled "Parasite Man," a story about Yukio and Tomoko. (Kevin and Yumiko will be there, but not soon.) Five of Yukio's colleagues weave love stories where they want to be loved. Can they find true love? The first volume will be released in August/September 2022. 
  Thank you again, and good luck studying Japanese and reading bilingual novels.

  My Grandfather's God

  In My Grandfather's God, David Somerfleck invites readers into a poetic journey through the vast landscape of human experience—where love and loss, spirituality and skepticism, pain and transcendence intersect. 
  Each poem is a revelation—sometimes tender, sometimes unflinching—exploring how belief, memory, and identity shape our understanding of self and the cosmos. Within these pages, the divine is questioned, confronted, and occasionally found in the quiet corners of everyday life. 
  Themes range from the generational weight of faith and family to the scars left by abuse, the solace of love, the ache of loss, and the elusive beauty of truth. These poems move between the intimate and the infinite, where personal wounds echo against the backdrop of cosmic thought and hard-won wisdom. 
  My Grandfather's God is at once deeply personal and universally resonant—a collection for anyone who has wrestled with the unseen, questioned what they were taught, or sought meaning amid both deception and revelation.
