In his highly anticipated second collection, Chen Chen continues his investigation of family, both blood and chosen, examining what one inherits and what one invents, as a queer Asian American living through an era of Trump, mass shootings, and the COVID-19 pandemic. Always at work in the wrecked heart of this new collection is a switchboard operator, picking up and connecting calls. Raucous 2 a.m. prank calls. Whispered-in-a-classroom emergency calls. And sometimes, its pages record the dropping of a call, a failure or refusal to pick up. With irrepressible humor and play, these anarchic poems celebrate life, despite all that would crush aliveness. Hybrid in form and set in New England, West Texas, and a landlocked province of China, among other places, Your Emergency Contact Has Experienced an Emergency refuses neat categorizations and pat answers. Instead, the book offers an insatiable curiosity about how it is we keep finding ways to hold onto one another.Voir livre
Dr. Liz’ Pocket Book of Poems is subtitled a companion to Dr. Liz’ Life Launch series, which includes her Amazon #1, multi-international, best-selling memoir: Life Launch! Surviving the Storms of Physical and Sexual Abuse, Book One, and soon to be published Life Launch! Book 2: A New Dawn of Healing and Recovery. In Dr. Liz’ Pocketbook of Poems, Book 3, she shares with her reader her entire body of poetry that she has written since she was 12 years old. The majority of these works were written as an outlet to self-soothe during her own teen and young adult years that Dr. Liz recounted in her best-selling memoir: living in abusive environments; navigating the tragic, accidental death of her older, only brother and other family and friends’ suicides; and her own struggles with drug and alcohol abuse. Indeed, in this book she shares through rhyme and prose her struggle to make sense of these traumatic experiences, and further, how they fuel her desire to help others (YOU) find hope, healing and a renewed passion for your lives and know that you are not alone in your journey. This is Book Three of a 3-book series. Life Launch! Book Two (coming soon) will reveal the struggles Dr. Liz overcame during the 2nd half of her life: the suicide of her husband, the death of her father, abusive relationships, and being engaged at one time to a man who later became the Butcher of Brooklyn. 15% OF THE PROCEEDS FROM THIS BOOK WILL BE DONATED TO CHARITIES THAT SUPPORT MENTAL HEALTH (through the author’s own BJD Memorial Rainbow of Hope Charitable Foundation for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention that she established in memory of her husband, as well as too many friends and family members, who died by suicide or other tragic means).Voir livre
Jerusalem Delivered by Torquato Tasso is one of the greatest epic poems of the Italian Renaissance, combining heroic adventure, romance, and spiritual devotion within a grand historical narrative. First published in 1581, this celebrated work recounts the dramatic events of the First Crusade, portraying the struggle for the holy city of Jerusalem through a rich tapestry of warriors, lovers, sorcerers, and legendary heroes. The poem centers on the Christian army led by the noble commander Godfrey of Bouillon, who is determined to capture Jerusalem and bring the long campaign to victory. As the crusaders march toward their goal, they face powerful enemies, internal conflicts, and supernatural forces that threaten to divide and weaken their cause. Among the many unforgettable characters is Rinaldo, a brave and passionate knight whose strength and courage make him one of the greatest champions of the crusading forces. His journey becomes one of the poem's most dramatic threads, particularly when he is enchanted by the beautiful sorceress Armida, who seeks to lure him away from his mission. Their complex relationship blends romance, magic, and emotional conflict, adding depth and tension to the epic narrative. Throughout the poem, Tasso masterfully intertwines numerous stories of love, rivalry, bravery, and sacrifice. Knights battle on the field of war, heroes confront enchanted forests and magical spells, and noble warriors struggle between duty and personal desire. These adventures unfold against the backdrop of the crusaders' ultimate goal—the liberation of Jerusalem. Tasso's poetry combines the grandeur of classical epics with the emotional richness of Renaissance literature. His vivid imagery, dramatic scenes, and lyrical language create a world filled with heroic courage, spiritual struggle, and imaginative wonder. The poem explores themes such as faith, honor, temptation, redemption, and the tension between passion and duty. Beyond its thrilling battles and romantic episodes, Jerusalem Delivered reflects the cultural and religious ideals of its time, portraying the crusading campaign as both a historical conflict and a spiritual quest. At the same time, the poem reveals the human emotions and inner struggles that shape the destinies of its characters. Magnificent in scope and rich in storytelling, Jerusalem Delivered stands as one of the great achievements of Renaissance epic poetry. Torquato Tasso's masterpiece continues to captivate readers with its heroic vision, poetic beauty, and timeless exploration of courage, faith, and love.Voir livre
