James Weldon Johnson, Georgia...

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. 
The United States may be far younger than many nations on Earth, yet its tumultuous history has reaped a harvest of poets and poetry of very fine calibre.  In this volume we explore the verse of the South-East.

Kevin Goes to Japan 2 - Stories...

Miwako Kiritani

"Kevin Goes to Japan 2 Stories for Japanese Learners JLPT N5 to N3" is the sequel of my first book as well as Japanese learning materials, "Kevin Goes to Japan 1". This one also comes with 495 sample reading comprehension questions of JLPT from N5 to N3. These questions are from the story, including what each character thinks/feels. You can understand deeply about the story via reading comprehension. For N3 level questions, the last reading comprehensions are more like articles explaining Japanese culture and languages. 
Besides, I used more complex words and expressions than in Kevin 1 as a Japanese light novel. You can enjoy love romance stories weaved by Kevin, Yumiko, Yukio, and Tomoko on Valentine's and White Day that is the original even related to Valentine's Day. Regardless of age, Japanese Valentine's Day is one of the most significant events of the year. Yukio and Kevin are pretty thrilled about whether they can get chocolate from Yumiko and Tomoko or not, but......? I hope you enjoy reading Kevin 2 as a bilingual love romance novel as well!

But & Though

Jake Hawkey

Read by the author, Jake Hawkey.In But & Though, Jake Hawkey scrutinizes the impact of parental addiction on families, its title a nod to the language of dependency, its circles of prevarication and excuse.Hawkey’s poems chart the loss of a father and the resilient love between siblings, and take an unflinching look at a parent–child relationship sometimes painfully inverted through alcoholism.Hawkey’s fresh perspective and playful style introduces a vital, authentic new voice in British poetry. It will appeal also to those interested in the wider literature of addiction and the complexities of urban working-class life in Britain. Hawkey approaches these subjects from highly original and personal angles, breathing life into his characters and settings. Ultimately, we come to know a young writer attempting to ‘detach with love’ as he strides forward into his own life.
