Beschreibung

In "Poetic Sketches," Thomas Gent offers a splendid array of lyrical pieces that capture the essence of early 18th-century sensibilities. The collection is characterized by its intricate rhyme schemes and vivid imagery, reflecting the influences of the Romantic movement while situating itself within the burgeoning tradition of English poetry. Gent's work elegantly navigates themes of nature, identity, and the human condition, articulating a sense of introspection and cultural reflection that resonates with contemporary audiences. Each sketch serves as a microcosm of emotional depth, inviting readers into a world marked by both beauty and melancholy. Thomas Gent, an accomplished poet from Yorkshire, was significantly influenced by the socio-political landscape of his time. His experiences as a printer and book publisher shaped his appreciation for the written word, furthering his resolve to convey profound ideas through poetry. Gent's connections within literary circles and his exposure to a diverse range of works reflect his commitment to the craft, ultimately culminating in this poignant collection that exemplifies the intersection of art and personal narrative. "Poetic Sketches" is highly recommended for readers seeking an enriching exploration of emotional landscapes and stylistic beauty. It serves not only as a testament to Gent's literary prowess but also as an invitation to reflect on the enduring power of poetry in revealing the human experience. This collection deserves a cherished place on the shelves of anyone who appreciates the intricacies of language and the art of reflection.

    The debut offering from one of the 20th century's most celebrated and renowned humorists, "Enough Rope" was an instant best-seller when it was released in 1926 and made Dorothy Parker a household name.  The poems in this collection range from the satiric to the sentimental; wickedly clever and yet elegantly and expertly constructed. Parker's mastery of the turn of phrase or the cynical or sardonic final line instantly grabbed the reading public's attention and propelled Parker into the national spotlight, which she would not relinquish for the rest of her life.  Dorothy Parker - social commentator, political reformer and legendary wit - has enjoyed a special place in American culture for almost a century and "Enough Rope" is an early example of Parker's unique and wry commentary on modern life. It is presented here in its original and unabridged format.

    Gather it from memory.
    
    Let it touch the earth.
    In Touch the Earth, Drew Jackson continues the project he began in God Speaks Through Wombs, reflecting on the Gospel of Luke through poetry. Touch the Earth picks up in chapter nine and continues through the end of Luke's Gospel. Part protest poetry, part biblical commentary, Jackson presents the gospel story in all its liberative power. Here the gospel is the "fresh words / that speak of / things impossible."
    From the feeding of the multitude ("The best hosts always provide / take home containers") to the resurrection of Jesus ("the belly of mother Earth / is, indeed, a womb . . . the humus of life is where we become fully human"), this collection helps us hear the hum of deliverance—against all hope—that's been in the gospel all along.
