  Theodore Huebner Roethke (May 25, 1908 to August 1, 1963), born in Saginaw, Michigan, is regarded as one of America's most accomplished and influential poets, having won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1954 for his book The Waking, and the annual National Book Award for Poetry on two occasions. His work is characterized by a willingness to engage deeply with a multifaceted introspection, and his style was overtly rhythmic, with a skillful use of natural imagery. In this recording, Roethke discusses poetry and writing, and reads many of his most famous poems: In A Dark Time, The Waking, My Papa's Waltz, Cuttings, The Sloth, Light Listened, Dolor, Elegy For Jane, A Rouse For Stevens, The Pets, The Adamant, Once More The Round, The Happy Three.

  Erica Hesketh's debut collection In the Lily Room tells a story of early motherhood. It examines a new mother's journey through mental illness, her relationships with her body, her baby and other people, and the often surreal landscape of mothering, against a backdrop of a changing and uncertain world.
  A dreamlike birth sequence full of eels, foxes and floodwater empties onto a London postnatal ward, where reality sets in. Rudderless and anxious, the new mother writes notes to herself, joins support groups and tries medication. She climbs into myth and prayer, nightmare and song, criss-crossing her neighbourhood with a pram, until she starts to feel better. Hesketh's poems speak of the many things motherhood can mean, the structures it is made to fit inside. Clear-eyed and full of hard-won love, this a story of one of the most common experiences there is, told in a dazzlingly original way.

  Poems of This Century and Poems...

  In this volume a young woman grows through and beyond erotic love to reach the love known as agape. 
  Poems of This Century is a book that rises from the human to explore the divine. Reflecting the joy of youth and the wisdom of age, shaped by the pain of the human condition, this poetry takes the reader on a journey of hope. 
  This book, in parts only too human and scattered with wry and humorous observations, is nevertheless an attempt to describe that intensified experience of the mystical called by others, the cloud of unknowing, the heat of love, the lightness of being, ecstasy, the peak experience. . .

  Pain Songs, Daniel Sluman's fourth poetry collection, is written through the personal experience of chronic pain, examining the ways the body and the world interact and intersect. Tender and often sensual, we encounter the internal weather systems and shifting states of the bodily self, challenging conventional ideas of wellness and illness.
  Reflecting on love, family, and relationships, the poems explore intimacy, fertility, pregnancy, and what the repercussions are of living inside a body that feels like 'an alarm that rings and rings'. Sluman's poetry, with its immense lyric clarity, brings the human song of the self alive by witnessing its pains and pleasures intimately.

  I am a Methodist and I count myself very fortunate to be so encouraged and uplifted by our wonderful ministers. I am also both lucky and deeply grateful that I am still able to comfortably travel on buses, trains, and in cars, to fly on planes, and to walk with the aid of my crutches.
  
  Old! Who, Me? God bless you all.
