Sinopsis

Charlotte Brontë became famous for her novels, but she also wrote poetry under the pen name Currer Bell, writing her first known poem at the age of 13. Many of her poems were published in collaboration with her sisters and concerned the fictional world of Glass Town, an imaginary world she created with her siblings in their youth. Charlotte further developed this concept and her later poems concerned the imaginary world of Angria, often concerning Byronic heroes. While she was unhappy working as a teacher Charlotte took out her sorrows in poetry, writing a series of spiritual and personal poems, drawing a sharp contrast between her miserable life as a teacher and the vivid imaginary worlds she and her siblings had created.

    'If your path is to walk through hell, walk as if you own the place.''It's a Twin Flame story and a message from the heart!'This story will take you on a journey to sacred sites in Peru, to the volcano Pele on Hawaii, to the Indian Reservation Standing Rock in North Dakota, to the rolling hills of Ireland, to stone circles in Denmark, and to the mountains and fjords of Norway. Most of all, it will take you on a journey from the head to the heart. And so, the book is dedicated to Our Ancestors.This is the story of Anna Veronica, who as a grown-up woman becomes interested in her family history, and goes searching for her grandmother's story and what happened to her as a young woman when her little brother died so young. Just when Anna Veronica thought her life was going well, she meets her twin flame and from this point on her life will never be the same again. Slowly but surely Anna Veronica's life falls apart and more than once she is on her knees praying desperately for help to be released from stress and pain. Anna Veronica is the sequel to the novel 'Olava' but can be read independently. She is named Anna after her own grandmother, Olava's mother, and Veronica after the medicine woman that Olava met when she was young.www.annelenebleken.dk

    Poetry. A form of words that seems so elegantly simple in one verse and so cleverly complex in another.  Each poet has a particular style, an individual and unique way with words and yet each of us seems to recognise the path and destination of where the verses lead, even if sometimes the full comprehension may be a little beyond us. 
     
    Through the centuries every culture has produced verse to symbolize and to describe everything from everyday life, natural wonders, the human condition and even in its more hubristic moments, the crushing triumph of an enemy. 
     
    In the volumes of this series we take a look through the prism of individual regions of the United States through the centuries and decades. 
     
    The United States may be many things: the world’s policeman, a bully, a shameless purveyor of mass market culture but it also, in its better moments, a standard bearer for truth, transparency, equality and the more positive qualities of democracy. 
     
    Little wonder that’s its poets are rightly acknowledged as wonders of their art.  Leading lights in the fight against slavery and for equality, even if the rest of the Nation is finding it problematic to catch up.   
     
    In this volume we have collected verse from poets born in one of the most famous cities in the World: New York. Within its five boroughs are a small universe of wonder and magic, a kaleidoscope of almost everything the planet has to offer.  In past times New York was a gateway to a new land and a new future whatever the misery and tragedy of your former life.  Of course, this golden vision was not attained by everyone.  But our local poets, including such luminaries as Emma Lazarus, Herman Melville, Edith Wharton, Alice Duer Miller, and Alan Seeger bring vision and truth to this unrivalled city and its hallowed status in the world of verse.

    Winner of the Max Ritvo Poetry Prize, Jackson Holbert’s Winter Stranger is a solemn record of addiction and the divided affections we hold for the landscapes that shape us.In the cold, seminal countryside of eastern Washington, a boy puts a bullet through his skull in a high school parking lot. An uncle crushes oxycodone into “a thousand red granules.” Hawks wheel above a dark, indifferent river. “I left that town / forever,” Holbert writes, but its bruises appear everywhere, in dreams of violent men and small stars, the ghosts of friends and pills. These poems incite a complex emotional discourse on what it means to leave—if it’s ever actually possible, or if our roots only grow longer to accommodate the distance.Punctuated by recollections of loved ones consumed by their addictions, Winter Stranger also questions the capricious nature of memory, and poetry’s power to tame it. “I can make it all sound so beautiful. / You’ll barely notice that underneath / this poem there is a body / decaying into the American ground.” Meanwhile, the precious realities vanish—“your hair, your ears, your hands.”—leaving behind “the fucked up / trees,” the “long, cold river.” In verse both bleak and wishful, Holbert strikes a fine balance between his poetic sensibilities and the endemic cynicism of modern life.“It is clear now that there are no ends,” Holbert writes, “Just winters.” Though his poems bloom from hills heavy with springtime snow, his voice cuts through the cold, rich with dearly familiar longings: to not be alone, to honor our origins, to survive them.

    The debut offering from one of the 20th century's most celebrated and renowned humorists, "Enough Rope" was an instant best-seller when it was released in 1926 and made Dorothy Parker a household name.  The poems in this collection range from the satiric to the sentimental; wickedly clever and yet elegantly and expertly constructed. Parker's mastery of the turn of phrase or the cynical or sardonic final line instantly grabbed the reading public's attention and propelled Parker into the national spotlight, which she would not relinquish for the rest of her life.  Dorothy Parker - social commentator, political reformer and legendary wit - has enjoyed a special place in American culture for almost a century and "Enough Rope" is an early example of Parker's unique and wry commentary on modern life. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.
