Sinossi

Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, composed by Lord Byron during the early 19th century, is an influential narrative poem that captures the essence of the Romantic era. The work follows the travels of the disenchanted aristocrat, Harold, who embarks on a spiritual quest across Europe, reflecting Byron'Äôs own life experiences and his profound sense of melancholy. The poem is distinguished by its rich imagery, lyrical beauty, and a deep exploration of themes such as love, loss, and the sublime. Byron's use of introspective narrative and vivid description not only illustrates the landscapes Harold traverses but also delves into the psychological turmoil that accompanies his search for meaning and identity amid a rapidly changing world. Lord Byron, an emblematic figure of the Romantic movement, was known for his tumultuous personal life and passionate worldview. His own experiences'Äîmarked by scandal, travel, and an undeniable sense of disillusionment'Äîgreatly informed the creation of Childe Harold's Pilgrimage. Byron's embrace of the Byronic hero resonates throughout the text, as he intertwines his own emotions with Harold'Äôs journey, showcasing his mastery of poetic form and his existential inquiries. Readers are invited to engage with Childe Harold's Pilgrimage not merely as a poem but as a profound exploration of the human spirit. This work is essential for anyone interested in Romantic literature, offering profound insights into personal and cultural dilemmas that are still relevant today. Byron's artful blend of personal reflection and historical context provides a compelling roadmap for those seeking to understand the complexities of both the individual and society.

    Matters Of Urgency (Biz)  
    A poem about the cut and thrust of the Business world.  
    How businesses in the boardroom deal with the aspects of promotion, and denigrate those who fail to  
    meet the grade. It mentions some of the tools used to sift out the doers from the  
    non-doers. The movers and shakers from the chaffs and fakers. 
    The boardroom is a tense place to be, when your egging for your promotion. 
    On the edge of your dreams in your business schemes.

    A Gateway Has Opened is a poetry collection by Hong Kong-based poet, LIAM BLACKFORD, containing 36 missives on truth and reality, anger and rage, complexity and change, and power as manifested in people, corporations, governments, borders and cultures. The poems inhabit a chaotic and psychedelic world where water flows into the sky, nightclubs have hundreds of floors and where banks and malls publish theories on knowledge and personhood. Therein, human society is fraught with harm and violence but also euphoric with the widening horizons of possibility. The collection is notable for its strict adherence to a unique poetic form (each poem has six stanzas, each stanza with six lines, and each line with six syllables), which in its red-eyed absoluteness suggests that the poems are giving voice to an alien, an angel or a machine. Though avant-garde and philosophical, the collection is highly reflective of the poet’s place and time, in which Hong Kong is at the epicentre of epochal political and cultural change. 
    “The poems ... ‘quiver with tension’ as the speaker straddles the liminal space between dreams and the mundane.” —Ryan Fenton. “In Blackford’s verse, one is in our world, with its political and environmental anxieties, with its affluence and parallel unease.”―Andrew S. Guthrie, Proverse Prize Finalist 2013. “... what bubbles beneath the surface is the courage to find astounding beauty and inspiration amidst confounding and cruelty, and hold them both.” —Jack Mayer, Winner of the Proverse Prize 2019. “...unique explorations of poetic form.”—Philip Mead, Emeritus Professor, University of Western Australia.  “Blackford’s worlds are jarring and harsh; psychedelic yet pungent with our reality. His strict form is muscular and fascinating. Gateway seethes with energy – I loved it.”―David West, Western Australia.

    …Today I discovered/what a group of butterflies is called./ Their name is Kaleidoscope,/” 
    begins the final nine-line stanza of Cat Russell’s “Kaleidoscope,” a poem sharing her book’s title. Its final three lines read, “…the everchanging pattern/ a perfect fusion of shifting compliments:/ the envy of artists, flowers, and clear-blue skies./” Russell’s delightfully accessible homage to butterflies is an ideal invitation into her poignant collection of 86 poems. They entice readers to savor every sip of them in a single sitting. 
    There is something for every palate: from the humor in “Cheapskate Midlife Crisis” and “F-Bombs,” to the understated predatory horror in “Servings,” to the anticipatory excitement of a thunderstorm in “Foretaste.” 
    Kaleidoscope showcases a writer whose talent is boundless! Cat Russell’s poetry is both beguiling and intellectually intoxicating. You’ll undoubtedly mark her collection a favorite.

    State of Ohio Beat Poet Laureate (2022-2024)

    The life and career of a Poet is often thought of as musing at a desk, or lying in a meadow, or on long journeys to find inspiration for their next masterwork.  But more often than not a poet was a part-time profession in subservient submission to their actual, salary-paying job.   
    In this volume we bring together those professionals whose skills are based on using words to achieve the ambitions, policies, desires and sleights of hand of their Governments and institutions.  This calculated logic and scheming enhances both diplomacy and their poetry.
