A poetry chapbook, Nineteen is the first installation of the Cigarettes and Ice Cream series.
The Land of the Free, the Home of the Brave. This illustrious phrase encapsulates the aspirations of America and its people. In this volume we feature 50 American poets beginning with the Colonist Anne Bradstreet in the 17th century, when American poetry was entirely rooted in its parental British forms. From here our classic poets take us through Centuries of history, through Independence and expansion Westward, across the cities and vast landscapes of their words. Along the journey we also meet the Imagists, the poets from the Harlem Renaissance by way of the Transcendentalists and the Fireside Poets. The giants of the poetic way loom large; Walt Whitman. Emily Dickinson, Edgar Allan Poe, Paul Laurence Dunbar and Edna St Vincent Millay. Our rambling poetic stroll gives voice to the nation’s hopes, its dreams, its failings, its musings. We cannot hope to define America but we do provide the many changing moods and flavours of the times as we discover the essence of its soul. 1 - Fifty Shades of September - An Introduction 2 - September by George Arnold 3 - September by Helen Hunt Jackson 4 - September 1st 1802 By William Wordsworth 5 - Lines Written Beneath an Elm in the Churchyard of Harrow-on-the-Hill September 2nd 1807 by Lord Byron 6 - Sonnet XXL, Sacred to the Memory of Edward Spedding Who Died September 3rd 1832 by Henry Alford 7 - An Indian Summer Day on the Prairie by Vachel Lindsay 8 - Lines Written on the 6th September by Thomas Gent 9 - Autumn in Sussex by Radclyffe Hall 10 - Autumn in Cornwall by Algernon Charles Swinburne 11 - Written in London September 1802 by William Wordsworth 12 - Autumn by Kahlil Gibran 13 - September by Carlos Wilcox 14 - A Calendar of Sonnets - September by Helen Hunt Jackson 15 - September by John Payne 16 - The Name of it is Autumn by Emily Dickinson 17 - September 1815 by William Wordsworth 18 - Autumn Song by Dante Gabriel Rosetti 19 - Autumn Dawn by Charles Sorley 20 - An Autumn Sunset by Edith Wharton 21 - A September Night by George Marion McClellan 22 - In Autumn Moonlight by Robert Seymour Bridges 23 - Indian Summer by Henry Van Dyke 24 - September 1819 by William Wordsworth 25 - The Autumn by Elizabeth Barrett Browning 26 - Autumn by Thomas Hood 27 - Elegy in April and September by Wilfred Owen 28 - September 1918 by Amy Lowell 29 - 21st September, 1870 by Charles Kingsley 30 - An Autumn Rain Scene by Thomas Hardy 31 - Sonnet.

Headlong Hall is the first novel by Thomas Love Peacock, published in 1815 (dated 1816). As in his later novel Crotchet Castle, Peacock assembles a group of eccentrics, each with a single monomaniacal obsession, and derives humor and social satire from their various interactions and conversations. The setting is the country estate of Squire Harry Headlong Ap-Rhaiader, Esq. in Wales.

"It was before the Idiot's marriage, and in the days when he was nothing more than a plain boarder in Mrs. Smithers-Pedagog's High-class Home for Single Gentlemen, that he put what the School-master termed his "alleged mind" on plans for the amelioration of the condition of the civilized." This humorous story by the editor of Puck magazine describes how the Idiot sets out to improve the lot of civilized man through his inventions - the lot of barbarian man already being well tended to by missionaries and other do-gooders.

It's the hot, humid, sticky summer of 1977. At a popular birdwatching spot jutting out into the North Sea at the mouth of the Tees, Martin, Jack, Michael and Carol are staring out into the future, their lives intertwined. A friendship, a marriage, a holiday, and a death - the gatherings and departures that make us human. Robert Holman's richly resonant play is an uplifting portrait of human hope and vulnerability. German Skerries was first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, and won the George Devine Award in the year that it is set. It was revived in 2016 at the Orange Tree Theatre, Richmond, in a co-production with the award-winning Up in Arms Theatre Company, followed by a tour around the UK.Show book
"The most amazing trips are made are within an open heart! Intimate and universal, Love Talks is more than a poetry collection. Fall upon a caveat. A cue. A call to action. Harshada Pathare's vast verses honor existence and its lifeblood: honest interconnection—art, as formed by melding separate souls. Prepare for a pilgrimage. The terminus: unknown. Along the way, you'll wander hallowed halls and navigate nature's raw splendor. Cozy cafés, spattered studios, and delicious dreamscapes await. Take a moonlit promenade beneath a pantheistic sky that glints with possibility. Discover—rediscover—what it means to truly feel . . . Surrender to the sacred spell of love — Like a messenger from gentler times, Harshada reminds readers to slow down, settle in, and drink of the sweetest enigmas. Dreamers, modern mavens, lovers — set aside a slate of time, and contemplate the timeless."Show book
