Sinopse

In "Trees, and Other Poems," Joyce Kilmer presents a collection that weaves together themes of nature, spirituality, and human emotion with lyrical elegance. Kilmer's verse is characterized by its clarity and musicality, often employing traditional forms that echo the pastoral and romantic traditions of poetry. His most famous poem, "Trees," embodies a deep reverence for nature, emphasizing the beauty and majesty of the natural world as an extension of divine creation. The work stands out as a quintessential example of early 20th-century American poetry, reflecting the cultural shifts of its time while remaining rooted in the timeless appreciation for nature's splendor. Joyce Kilmer, an accomplished poet and journalist, drew on his rich experiences as a Catholic and a New Jersey native, both of which informed his worldview. His engagement with nature is evident throughout his work, shaped by his personal belief in the intrinsic value of the natural landscape. Kilmer's untimely death in World War I lent a poignant resonance to his poems, infusing them with a sense of urgency and a call to cherish beauty amidst the chaos of human existence. Readers who seek a meditative exploration of the natural world and a celebration of life itself will find in Kilmer's "Trees, and Other Poems" an enduring classic that speaks to the heart of humanity. This collection invites reflection on our relationship with nature, urging us to recognize beauty in simplicity and the sacredness of all living things.

    What do you do when you are a god – but powerless and unable to prevent one of your favourite species from their insatiable, accelerating death wish? Do you try to shout louder and more insistently, or instead reinvent yourself as a troubadour of romantic ruin? Such are the dilemmas posed by Rishi Dastidar in his third poetry collection Neptune's Projects, a reshaping of mythology for the climate crisis era which gives bold consideration to the stark choices we face.
    A post-apocalyptic jig and reel, these poems are compelling, deadpan yarns of the sea, full of both fury and fun. In Neptune's Projects the end of humanity is made wry, thrilling – and alive.
