Sinopse

In "Poems by Isaac Rosenberg," the reader is invited into a profound exploration of the human condition, war, and the nature of existence, all articulated through Rosenberg's strikingly modernist style. His poetry reflects a unique confluence of expressionism and imagery, framing the harsh realities of World War I against a backdrop of deep philosophical inquiry. Themes of displacement, despair, and beauty resonate through intricate imagery and innovative forms, revealing the tension between the personal and the broader human experience in a time of chaos. Isaac Rosenberg was an artist-poet born into a Jewish family in London, whose diverse cultural background and early influences shaped his creative expression. His experiences as a soldier during the Great War deeply informed his work, as he faced the grotesque realities of trench warfare while reflecting on his Jewish identity and the struggle for meaning in a fragmented world. His tragic death in the war only amplified the poignant and prophetic voice present in his poetry. This collection is a vital read for those interested in modernist literature, war poetry, and the intersection of art and personal identity. Rosenberg's poignant verses challenge readers to confront the intense emotions of sorrow, beauty, and resilience, making it an essential addition to any literary canon.

    The Way of Passion draws on the poems of Jalalud-Din Rumi (1207-1273) to present a guide to the timeless truth and beauty of Rumi's words. Inspired by Rumi's voice and by his own startling ability to see into the innermost heart of life, Andrew Harvey urges us to change, to have faith, and to act through love to transform this time of apocalypse into the time of resurrection. The passion of his words shine with an intensity that can embrace and inspire us all. This recording features musical accompaniment created and performed by Steve Coughlin.

    Night Lunch is a shapeshifting sonnet sequence set in the cold waters off the North Coast of Labrador. Reflecting Chaulk’s own experience, the speaker—a young deckhand on a freight and passenger ferry servicing isolated communities—endures long irregular work hours, weather, icebergs, and loneliness, all the while navigating the taut intersections of race, labour, class, and masculinity. That Chaulk has Inuit family in and from Labrador makes this debut poetic journey a cultural coming-home for the young deckhand, as chronicled in supple, powerful verse.

I cannot leave my love behind, forever we are mates.
