Sinopsis

This collection of experimental, interactive, and erasure pieces explores belonging in its many forms and formats. Readers are invited to reimagine what it means to be and to belong.
 
With poems in quiz, fill-in-the blank, list, and Mad Lib-esque format, readers are prompted to revisit and reimagine preconceived notions of belonging in both inside and outside spaces. Boundaries are tested. Expiration is embraced. From erasures to nontraditional walks across traditional pages, the pieces play with both content and form. Explore travels and tales of red converse laces, queries on currency & hurricanes of human form.
 
If you enjoy poetry like puzzles, and are curious about new visions of belonging, you’ll love this collection. Erase prior notions of what it means to belong. Read the collection inside. Fill in its blanks outside.
Disponible desde: 18/03/2022.

    The Poetry of Wind and Rain -...

    When the wind blows and the rain lashes our emotions can become dulled and our thoughts depressed but sometimes these swirling conditions can excite and invigorate.  Whether we shut the door physically or delight in watching nature's displays, we cannot ignore the weather. It’s the natural topic of conversation for the British.  Summer breezes and spring showers can elevate our senses bringing a thump to the heart, a grin to the face and an abandon to immerse yourself in nature's ever changing wonders. 
    For poets these elemental forces that signal change can often inspire.  Muses summon themselves and through brain, heart and pen a myriad of expressions are revealed to a poet and capture his thoughts and views upon these transitory natural forms. Within this volume, poets such as Keats, Emily Dickinson, Algernon Charles Swinburne and Amy Lowell speak of wind and rain to storm and hurricane. 
    This volume comes to you from Portable Poetry, a specialized imprint from Deadtree Publishing.  Our range is large and growing and covers single poets, themes, and many compilations.

    Secrets have a way of being found out. 
    Uncovering the hidden secrets of her literary heroes was the last thing Jane expected when she began her PhD research on T.S. Eliot and Ezra Pound. But as she delves deeper into the prestigious universities and dusty manuscript libraries, she discovers a shocking truth: her own family may have been involved in a scandalous affair with another titan of American Modernism, William Carlos Williams. 
    Guided by her unwavering intuition and the support of a few exceptional mentors, Jane's quest for the truth takes her on a journey spanning continents and decades, navigating the treacherous waters of academic politics along the way. But as she unearths the buried secrets of her ancestors, she realizes that sometimes, the truth we seek lies hidden within the very words that have shaped our world. 
    For fans of historical fiction and literary mysteries, The Roots That Clutch is a hauntingly true story that will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
