Symphony of 100 Poems

Fernando Kfer

Sinopse

Dear readers and poetry lovers, It is with great emotion and enthusiasm that I share with you my latest work, a deep dive into the universe of words and feelings. This book of poetry is an intimate journey through the nuances of life, where each verse is an echo of the heart, each stanza is a sigh of the soul. Symphony of 100 Poems Synopsis: In these pages, I sought to capture the ephemerality of love, the melancholy of longing, the bravery of hope and the mysteries that weave the web of existence. Each poem is a painting of emotions, an invitation to reflect on the wonders and challenges that permeate our journey. What to Expect: Feel free to explore the pages of this book like diving into an ocean of words. Each poem is a bridge between the tangible and the ephemeral, an attempt to express the indescribable beauty of human emotions. Dear readers, It is with immense gratitude and joy that I dedicate these words to you, who kindly embarked on this poetic journey with me. Creating this book was an experience of profound meaning, and it could not have been possible without the support and inspiration of so many incredible people. First of all, I would like to thank my family for their patience, unconditional love and constant encouragement. To the friendships that brightened my days with laughter, understanding and support, my sincere thanks. To those who shared their stories, feelings and experiences, you are the true essence of these poems. To the dedicated team who made this book a reality, from editors to designers, I thank you for transforming loose words into a tangible work. To the mentors who guided my literary path, my deepest gratitude. And, finally, to you, dear readers, for allowing these poems to touch your hearts. May this book be more than words on paper, but a meaningful echo in your lives. With all my love and gratitude, Fernando Kfer

There is No Place Without You -...

Maya Bernstein

Maya Bernstein's debut volume presents poems rigorously composed and delicately honed. It reveals the sensitive spirit and sharp mind of a mature speaker exploring the gaping space between the infinitude of the divine and the finite nature of human existence. 
Authentic and honest, spanning the secular and the sacred, these poems challenge and speak truth to our fears and joys, navigating the complex intimacy and distance we experience as humans striving to connect to ourselves, one another, and to the forces that act upon us in the world.

Rudyard Kipling - Chapter &...

Rudyard Kipling

Literature is a world of words and wonder, able to take us on almost unimaginable journeys from the wild and fantastic to the grind and minutiae of life.

An author’s ideas are his building blocks, his architecture of the mind, building a structure on which all else will rest; the narrative, the characters, the words - those few words that begin the adventure.

In this series we look at some of our leading classic authors across two genres: the short story and the poem. In this modern world there is an insatiable need to categorise and pigeon-hole everyone and everything. But ideas, these grains and saplings of the brain, need to roam, to explore and find their perfect literary use vehicle. Our authors are masters of many literary forms, perhaps known for one but themselves favouring another.

Story. Poems. Story. Within these boundaries come all manner of invention and cast of characters. And, of course, each author has their own way of revealing their own chapter and verse.

The Invisible World Is in...

Bruce Whiteman

The stunning conclusion to a 40-year poetic project
		 
In the tradition of earlier modernist long poems like Ezra Pound’s Cantos and bp Nichol’s The Martyrology, The Invisible World Is in Decline: Book IX is full of startling poetic music and imagery while addressing concerns to which every reader will respond: the life of the heart as well as life during COVID-19, love as well as death, philosophy as well as emotion. The poems are deeply responsive to what an epigraph from Virgil calls “vows and prayers,” i.e., those things that we desire and promise. Like previous books of Whiteman’s long poem, Book IX is largely in the form of the prose poem. But the book also contains a moving series of translations in traditional form of texts taken from songs by composers like Schubert and Beethoven, songs that are by turns tragic, meditative, lyrical, and touching. The concluding section focuses on an obsession that poets have had for 2,500 years: inspiration, in the form of the nine Muses. At the heart of this book is what Whiteman calls “the bright articulate world,” something visionary but accessible to every thoughtful reader.

I Married an Ex-Wise Guy

Selia Sunshine

The book is written in a series of memory lane vignettes depicting memories of Selia’s life with an ex-wise guy. 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. The depiction of how hospice helped Selia through her husband’s dying process was a dramatic life-learning situation.

Septet for the Luminous Ones

fahima ife

Continuing her search for a neotropical mythos, in this brilliant second collection poet fahima ife articulates various scenes of subduction. Spoken in quiet recognition and grounded in desire, Septet for the Luminous Ones imagines a lush soundscape textured in oblique spiritual fusion of the Taíno and Yoruba. Or, what it sounded like coming together for the first time, and what it sounds like ever after—breathless, diaspora calling. Similar to the incidents in Maroon Choreography, what resounds in these poems is an ecstatic love song of the Caribbean Americas, of the main lands and islands, shaped and reshaped as breathwork, ritual, communion, and fantasy. In essence, the collection speaks to raise the vibrational frequencies of all species on Earth through a sensual pulse of Black English.From Alchemical Sirensit flickers in balsamic appealmoist in the palms of our handsa psalm a lamp a sap in our lapsan aspplausible love song          after love poemswere last put on holdas in b l a ck a r tthe new black art is this —        find the lost soul and love it

Skyscraper Lullaby (NHB Modern...

James Fritz

A powerful drama about two parents trying to come to terms with the disappearance of their toddler, written and first performed as an audio drama for Audible Original.
As they recount the events surrounding the disappearance of their toddler – one with a tendency to bite – two parents cope with grief in vastly different ways. While the father wrestles with feelings of guilt, the mother is convinced she's spotted the boy in frightening TV news reports… though let's just say he looks nothing like the precocious little boy they remember from a decade ago.
James Fritz's Skyscraper Lullaby is a haunting examination of the ways we cope with tragedy, complicity, and remorse. It was first produced as an audio play for Audible Original in 2022.
