Beschreibung

"Yanks: A.E.F. Verse" serves as a poignant anthology capturing the collective voice of American soldiers during World War I, blending personal reflections with emerging modernist styles. This compilation features a diverse range of poems that reflect the raw emotions, camaraderie, and brutal realities of the battlefield. The verses are characterized by their vivid imagery and authentic expressions of fear, hope, and resilience, framed within the broader context of the Great War, which reshaped not only the landscape of Europe but also the psyche of an entire generation. The anthology is a product of various authors, many of whom were soldiers themselves or closely acquainted with the war's toll on humanity. Their experiences in the American Expeditionary Forces (A.E.F.) influenced their creative expressions, often serving as a cathartic outlet for processing trauma and loss. The collection reflects the era's literary movements, positioning itself between traditional verse and the avant-garde, encapsulating the voices of a time when poetry answered the call of urgent historical events. "Yanks: A.E.F. Verse" is an essential read for those seeking to understand the intersection of art and war. Its emotional depth and historical significance offer invaluable insights into the human condition amidst conflict, making it a critical addition for both scholars of war literature and general readers alike.

    Interracial families are more common than ever, yet their unique stories often remain untold. This transparent poetry collection offers a deeply personal glimpse into my journey—growing up in a predominantly single-race family, navigating the intricacies of interracial relationships, and raising biracial children. Through honest and unfiltered reflections, I delve into the joys, challenges, and struggles in building an interracial family, while also celebrating the love, cultural connection and sense of belonging that makes this journey meaningful. 
    What makes this audiobook truly special is the contribution of my daughter, Summer Renee Crowell, who courageously shares her perspective being a biracial child in a beautifully written chapter. There are a few collaborative poems woven throughout the collection adding even more depth and richness to this exploration of love and realities we experienced together. 
    Take a moment to step into our world. Listen, and discover our journey through diversity, resilience, and the beauty of growing together as one.

    Inspired by the question of her cartwheeling five-year-old niece, “Emmy, What Color is Goodness?,” this poem was written to help readers find goodness in the most unexpected places.First-time author EMILY MORRISON offers a vision of kindness, acceptance, and understanding in unsettled times within this beautiful poem, featuring the delightful illustrations of accomplished artist PAM MCDONNELL. The book is a discovery of the infinite colors of goodness and all the places where it can be found. In its exploration, the tale takes the reader through all the colors of the rainbow, delving inside brown boxes and ribboned packages, in dark grey spaces, and even deep inside all of us. Goodness is found while dancing wildly, singing joyfully and in quiet spaces with almost no color. Morrison hopes to transport readers to a world where poetry tells a powerful story that relates to audiences of all ages. She believes lyrical poetry has the power to inspire emotions that can create change. What Color Is Goodness? explores friendships, vulnerability, mindfulness, gratitude, acceptance, and community, lessons that connect all generations.
