Summary

from the soul-soothing mind of rupi, comes another beautiful collection of poetry that only kaur can pen, the writer of the decennium (Poetry Writer's Guild of Literary Arts and Achievement).  
a vibrant, transcendent and heart-wrenching journey about growth and healing divided into four chapters; life, #metoo, crazy / beautiful, and tears on my pillow. each chapter serves a different purpose towards healing a different pain within us. #metoo takes readers through a journey of the most terrible moments in a woman’s life and finds the strength needed within to rise again, stronger than ever, reborn from the ashes like a phoenix. 
'they told her she needed to find a knight, when all she wanted was to find a sword.'

    Aiblins is a selection of new Scottish political poetry. The poems in this collection reflect the tumultuous, rapidly evolving nature of contemporary Scottish politics. They also stand as a testament to the deep engagements poets are making with the political landscape today, not only by reflecting on current events through their work but also by issuing provocations which reframe and challenge conventional assumptions.

    "The beautiful, elegant, hearbreakingly sad story of Lancelot, Guinevere and Arthur is Ediwn Arlington Robinson's subject in his 1920 novella in verse, ""Lancelot."" His focus throughout is is on one side of the triangle, that of Lancelot and Guinevere. As in his previous Arthurian poem, ""Merlin,"" he does not give us Malory's tales of jousts and tournaments; he sets his poem instead in the quiet moments of reflection, hope, anger, forgiveness, remorse and honesty that allow him to explore the meaning of this, one of literature's most enduring love stories, in the depths of the hearts and minds of his characters. Measured, elegiac, but always clear-eyed, he faces unflinchingly the agony of love that cannot be, and in so doing, breaks our hearts while satisfying our souls."

    In Dedra L. Stevenson’s first work of crime and courtroom drama, Desert Magnolia takes the reader along a turbulent journey with Daniella Pierce, a small town Southern gal who ended up living as a Muslim in Dubai, happy and fulfilled, or at least she thought. Daniella, upon hearing that her father has been murdered as a result of a hate crime, learns that her beloved cousin has been accused and will stand trial for his life. 
    Daniella comes back to her original home only to be immersed in a full blown Southern mystery, taking her on an emotional journey that proves to be not only therapeutic, but freeing for many skeletons, both real and supernatural. Armed with her quest for the truth and many stops for iced tea and good down home Southern cooking, Daniella doesn’t give up on her cousin, even though he has left a trail of broken hearts along the way. 
    As the two had grown up together, Daniella and Leo always felt like brother and sister, both enduring the home environment of the mighty Ross Pierce, the Second. Ross Pierce was a wealthy businessman and well respected among his peers, but becoming that powerful in a small Southern town means that you will develop enemies along the way. The question is, which one hated him enough to kill him in such a horrific way? 
    Daniella struggles to unravel the mystery in time to save her cousin, but also faces the racial tension that she left behind when she married an Arab and became a Muslim. With the help and support of a handful of her relatives and her dearest friends, Daniella takes the necessary steps to end the tension once and for all.

    The Poetry of Katharine Tynan

    Katherine Tynan was born on January 23rd 1859 into a large farming family in Clondalkin, County Dublin, and educated at a convent school in Drogheda.  In her early years she suffered from eye ulcers, which left her somewhat myopic.   
     
    She first began to have her poems published in 1878.  A great friend to Gerard Manley Hopkins and to WB Yeats (who it is rumoured proposed marriage but was rejected). With Yeats to encourage her, her poetry blossomed and she was equally supportive of his.  She married fellow writer and barrister Henry Albert Hinkson in 1898.  They moved to England where she bore and began to raise 5 children although two were to tragically die in infancy.  In 1912 they returned to Claremorris, County Mayo when her husband was appointed magistrate there from 1912 until 1919.  Sadly her husband died that year but Katherine continued to write.    
     
    Her output was prolific, some sources have her as the author of almost a 100 novels.  Here we concentrate on her poetry. Amongst the classics such as ‘The Wind That Shakes the Barley’ are numerous war poems.  She is now sometimes grouped amongst the War Poets of the First World War. Her experience was not direct but as a Mother with one son serving in France and another in Palestine, the emotions, fears and doubts are expressed in a beautiful heart-felt way.  
     
    Katharine died on April 2nd 1931 and she is buried at Kensal Green Cemetery in London.

    Kahlil Gibran’s aphorisms, stories, and poetry on a theme remain among some of those best known to Western readers. His views, however, extend beyond the most-quoted “greeting card” sayings to a wide realm of human emotions and relationships—passion, desire, idealized love, justice, friendship, and the challenges of dealing with strangers, neighbors, and enemies. This little book captures love and life in all of their complexities and nuances.This little volume includes over 90 selections from Gibran’s writings and is divided into four sections:Love’s InitiationThe Veils of LoveAll of Our RelationshipsA Love BeyondThis book, ideal for all gift-giving occasions, is informative, illuminating, and inspirational.Whom Do We Love?When I stood, a clear mirror before you,  you gazed into me and saw your image.  Then you said, “I love you.” But in truth you loved yourself in me.  Love is the veil between lover and lover.
