  A Sand Book is a poetry collection in twelve parts, a travel guide that migrates from wildfires to hurricanes, tweety bird to the president, lust to aridity, desertification to prophecy, and mother to daughter. It explores the negative space of what is happening to language and to consciousness in our strange and desperate times. From Hurricane Sandy to the murder of Sandra Bland to the massacre at Sandy Hook, from the sand in the gizzards of birds to the desertified mountains of Haiti, from Attar's "Conference of the Birds" to Chaucer's "Parliament of Fowls" to Twitter, A Sand Book is about change and quantification, the relationship between catastrophe and cultural transmission. It moves among houses of worship and grocery stores, flitters between geological upheaval and the weird weather of the Internet. In her long-awaited follow-up to Mercury, Reines has written her most ambitious work to date, but also her most visceral and satisfying.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  He’s seen it all. Until now. 
  Detective Darrius Blue has walked the shadowy streets of New York City for over a decade, chasing justice through blood-stained alleyways and broken dreams. But when a high-profile murder rattles the city’s elite and clues lead to a powerful web of corruption, Darrius finds himself caught in a case that threatens everything he stands for—and everyone he loves. 
  With his sharp instincts, relentless grit, and a past that never quite lets go, Darrius digs deep into a mystery that grows darker at every turn. Each answer raises more questions. Each ally could be an enemy. And the closer he gets to the truth, the more dangerous the game becomes. 
  As the line between justice and vengeance blurs, Darrius must decide how far he's willing to go. Because in a city where secrets kill, some truths are better left buried.

  Meeting of Minds - Volume IX

  By " assembling" some of the most fascinating figures in world history, Meeting of Minds provided a groundbreaking opportunity for audiences to be exposed to ideas by way of a medium not normally known for its intellectual vigor. Portrayed by actors, panelists engage in stimulating round-table discussions that were conducted like any other talk show but featured prominent influencers from bygone generations— not just philosophers and politicians, but poets, playwrights, and presidents. From activists and artists to international leaders— both famous and infamous— these conversations are unfailingly witty, thought-provoking, and genuinely entertaining.
  An innovative series, Meeting of Minds remains one of the most delightful ways of gaining historical perspective ever devised, and these original soundtrack recordings capture the intellectual and spirited debates of the episodes hosted by Steve Allen.
  This installment breaks the pattern of other episodes by featuring playwright William Shakespeare surrounded not by other illustrious historical figures, but with the fruits of his own imagination. Following a brief discussion of his early life, Shakespeare is joined by the Dark Lady of the Sonnets, Hamlet, Romeo, Othello, and the Ghost of Hamlet's Father. Expounding on the theme of love, the most enigmatic and compelling of Shakespeare's characters challenge each other and their mutual creator to resolve long-standing controversies about their identities and inner conflicts.

  Rhapsody of Strings under the...

  Fragmented into sixteen excerpts, stories or scenes, this brief work by León focuses on the breakup or a couple of unnamed lovers without explicit gender, swept away by the gale of passion and desire, with the moon as their sole spectator and accomplice, and the presence of a cat that serves as witness to the impulses of a love that is hopelessly undone in the misunderstanding of bodies scorched by the fire of the sexes, The work is a heartbroken cry of a lonely, proud individual, overpowered by his own ego in the face of the loss and abandonment of the one who filled his days. And in the other end, silence, and emptiness as the only response.The whole book is imbued with a deeply moving sentimental tone that strikers with the force of a desperate ritornello.

  Reversing Entropy

  From the pen of beloved poet Luci Shaw comes a new collection that celebrates inspired creativity as an antidote to chaos.
  The poet' s own words best describe the heart of this pinnacle collection of new work by beloved writer Luci Shaw:
  Entropy: A measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system, its lack of order or predictability, resulting in a gradual decline into disorder.
  Our universe, and the systems within it, constantly shift from their created states of order towards disorder, or chaos. The second law of thermodynamics asserts that entropy, or disorder, always increases with time. Creative human activities such as art, architecture, music, story or film are human efforts to halt and reverse this loss of meaning. Thus, smaller systems, like individual poems, become highly ordered as they receive energy from outside themselves, from the poet. They reverse entropy because they are moving from a state of disorder (all the random ideas, words and phrases available to the writer) into an orderly form designed by the writer to create meaningful images and concepts in the reader' s mind (which is where the word " imag-ination" comes from.) This transfer of images, concepts and ideas into the mind of a reader is the task of poetry and the calling of the poet. Just as a composer of music gathers rhythms, notes, melodies, or harmony, organizing them into fugues or sonatas or concertos, so poets work and write to discover ways of arranging their responses to the world in words that introduce meaning and beauty in the mind of the reader.
  Which is what I' ve been trying to do for most of my life.
