Beschreibung

The Talisman, Gerry Eugene’s second volume of selected poems, takes us once more to the forests and mountains of the West and to the plains and fields of the Midwest. Against this backdrop, we encounter images and situations that will long resonate in our minds.
 
The poems are a portal to a world of horses, childhood, cats, trout streams, friends, family, grief, planting and harvest, fear and courage, addiction and triumph, love and passion, wild nights, growing up and growing old.
 
Eugene’s poems celebrate the particularity of image and the musicality of language. The pieces in this book span fifty years, and Eugene presents his vision in traditional and nontraditional forms and styles.
Verfügbar seit: 12.02.2024.
Drucklänge: 92 Seiten.

    The Snow Globe is Jenny Pagdin's powerful, sensitive and stark debut collection. Written from first-hand experience, under the glass dome of postpartum psychosis, her poetry depicts a fearsome, glittering inner storm of severe mental illness during new motherhood, moving through illness, through snow flurry and sunshine, to a place of recovery and love.
    Threaded through this book are illuminating and courageous poems that settle and unsettle in equal measure. They cluster moth-like around spiritual and mythical figures, unravelling and remaking themselves with needlework and yarn, threaded along shorelines and under starry night skies. Jenny Pagdin's skilful and attentive use of a variety of forms reflects multiple and jarring realities – with poems dancing their own chaotic, fragmented and strange glinting beauty towards resolution.

    Inspired by the mountains, forests, animals, and people of Appalachia, If Lost is Clint Bowman's exhilarating debut about how these elements collide and struggle to co-exist in an ever-changing landscape. Bowman's poems are a guide through this beautiful, brutal, and often misunderstood world where threats to the region come from all sides. Invasive species strangle the trees around corrupt churches and failing convenience stores, while truckers cry in parking lots and deer contemplate death along the highway. In If Lost, Bowman demonstrates how everyone and everything is lost in some way, but that it's possible to find a way out. 
      
    Praise for If Lost  
    “You can feel the thickness in the air, the smells, and the overgrown nature of it all. A poetry deeply connected to the place from which it comes.” 
    —Keith Zarriello, musician and lead singer of The Shivers 
      
    “In this astounding collection, truckers cry, milkweed and honeysuckle overtake, poinsettias wilt in winter frost, and bear hunters haunt the stories of our conscience...” 
    —Garrett Ashley, author of Periphylla, and Other Deep Ocean Attractions 
      
    “If Lost offers us a starkly honest and rarely seen western North Carolina, with all its diverse species in bitter harmony… We cannot know what the future holds for this delicate region and its people, but these poems will keep you warm and light your way.” 
    —Leah Hampton, author of F*ckface and Other Stories 
      
    “…Bowman encompasses the complexity and beauty of what it means to be from the American South, capturing the quiet, sometimes bleak magic that encompasses his world.”  
    —Thomas Dollbaum, musician
