Beschreibung

Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell presents a fascinating tapestry of themes ranging from the sublime to the intimate, reflecting the complex literary landscape of the 19th century. This anthology marks an important period where women's voices, though often veiled by male pseudonyms, began to penetrate the traditionally male-dominated sphere of poetry. The collection embodies a rich array of styles, from the introspective and melancholic to the emotionally evocative and nature-infused, offering pieces that stand out for their nuanced exploration of solitude, love, and the human spirit. The diversity within the pages creates an intricate mosaic of sentiments uniquely crafted by the Brontë siblings, without any one piece overshadowing another. The contributing authors, Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë, while adopting pseudonyms—Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell—collectively enrich the anthology with their distinct perspectives rooted in the cultural and literary currents of their time. Influenced by Romanticism and the burgeoning Victorian ideals, their works collectively echo a resilience and exploration that challenges the societal norms of their era. They represent an era of transformation, their voices resonating with movements that sought to articulate female consciousness and individuality amid an evolving literary tradition. This anthology is a compelling invitation to explore the multiplicity of perspectives unified by the Brontës' genius. Readers are encouraged to immerse themselves in this poetic dialogue, which underscores the educational value and profound insights of their collective oeuvre. For anyone seeking an expansive view of historical, emotional, and literary depth, Poems by Currer, Ellis, and Acton Bell is a scholarly treasure that facilitates meaningful explorations into the human condition, demonstrating the remarkable convergence of their artistic talents.

    Caught between a loving husband and a man from her past, one woman chooses an unconventional way to explore her personal "road not taken". Love is not Pie is a personal exploration navigating the world of consensual non-monogamy and polyamory. This collection of poems - erotic, yearning, sweet and angry - was written by Lazaruk to and about her two beloved men over the course of several years. Collected here for the first time, the original poems are woven together with new pieces that provide context for how the story unfolded. In this expressive work of poetry, Lazaruk explores attachment, fear, love, lust, grief and the push-pull between what she knows is right and how she justifies her actions. Love is Not Pie will resonate with readers who have flirted with relationships outside the norm of Western marital conventions, as well as those who are interested in peering behind the curtain of what most of us show the world about our private lives. Narrated here by the author, she and her producer Paul Tedeschini, collaborated to create the sensual aural world of Love is Not Pie, setting the various scenes through the skillful use of sound design to add a unique ambience and feel to these tiny little gems. We hope you enjoy the audio experience. Please note it is best realized with headphones, both for the sound quality as well as for keeping the NSFW nature of this work on the DL while listening. Have fun!

    Pink Moon is part anthem of decolonization, part oracle of the times. Earthy, magical, and steeped in ancestral connection, Roshan James fuses her lived experience as a Tibetan-Indian born in Scarborough, Ontario, with a tangible connection to nature, humanity, and realms of consciousness. Growing up in the South Asian diaspora, but feeling disconnected from her cultural roots, James makes peace with the tension between her self-identities through poetry.
    		 
    With lyrical ease and simplicity, James resonates off the page, holding the reader in a space, almost trance-like, of quiet confidence. Infused with street-style and deep contemplation, ancient tones and child-like questioning, this collection is a journey through abstract expression. Pink Moon sits at an intersection of timely themes: anti-oppression, melanated lived experience, climate action, social justice, and personal spirituality. The collection will be of interest for discussion in academia, literary circles, and among people who are passionate about art, mindfulness, meditation, holistic health, and nature.
