Sinopsis

In "Some Poems," Walter Scott masterfully intertwines narrative and lyricism, presenting a collection that reflects his profound engagement with Scottish history and folklore. The poems vary in tone and style, ranging from the romantic to the heroic, embodying the early 19th-century Romantic movement's preoccupations with nature, emotion, and the nation's past. Scott'Äôs adept use of Scottish dialect and vivid imagery transports readers to a realm where history and legend coalesce, offering not just entertainment but also a reflection on cultural identity. Walter Scott, often heralded as the father of the historical novel, was profoundly influenced by his Scottish heritage, his legal background, and his experiences in the turbulent sociopolitical landscape of his time. His dedication to preserving and celebrating Scottish culture is evident throughout this collection, which draws on themes of nationalism and nostalgia'Äîelements likely nurtured by his own journey through the complexities of identity during the early 19th century. "Some Poems" is a seminal work for any reader interested in Romantic literature or the rich tapestry of Scottish culture. Scott'Äôs ability to evoke powerful emotions while grounding his narratives in historical context makes this collection indispensable for both literary enthusiasts and scholars alike. Dive into these poetic realms to discover the allure of Scotland's heritage through the eyes of one of its most celebrated sons.

    In this bilingual poetry collection, Roberto Germán, shares writing across 20 years of his life. The poems tell stories of love, relationships, race, identity, and everyday living.

As he explores what it's like to be a young man growing into his identity, the readers are invited into a rarely explored point of view with this level of imagery and sensorial writing: life through the young adult eyes of a Black Dominican-American, son of immigrants."Blue Ink Tears is a work of emotional beauty, historical awe, and nostalgic reminiscence.

    Love is a Dog From Hell

    A classic in the Bukowski poetry canon, Love Is a Dog from Hell is a raw, lyrical, exploration of the exigencies, heartbreaks, and limits of love. 
    A book that captures the Dirty Old Man of American letters at his fiercest and most vulnerable, on a subject that hits home with all of us. Charles Bukowski was a man of intense emotions, someone an editor once called a “passionate madman.” Alternating between tough and gentle, sensitive and gritty, Bukowski lays bare the myriad facets of love—its selfishness and its narcissism, its randomness, its mystery and its misery, and, ultimately, its true joyfulness, endurance, and redemptive power. 
    ""there is a loneliness in this world so great 
    that you can see it in the slow movement of 
    the hands of a clock.""

    There was a time when I was falling, 
    My enemies surrounded me. 
    I was wounded and weary. 
    I felt so weak unable to fight anymore. 
    My eyes were dark and, 
    my strength was almost gone. 
    I prayed and cried out to God; I felt forsaken. 
    I was hurt and felt abandoned. 
    Then I reminded myself of his words 
    that he will never leave me. 
    I cried with my whole heart, 
    He heard me and save me from my enemies.

    Enjoy this captivating journey into the life and poetry of Robert Frost, as his dear friend and farmhand, Carl Burell, shares stories about Rob with the people of Derry, New Hampshire at the Derry Centennial Celebration of 1927. 
    This fictional reenactment provides an enlightening and entertaining look inside the early years of Robert Frost through the eyes of his childhood friend, farming mentor and hired hand. Carl’s intimate view provides a unique perspective on Frost’s life as a novice farmer among the people of Derry, whom Frost freely appropriated in much of his poetry. As he reflects, Carl muses on his own appearance in some of Frost’s poems, and the manner in which the poet transformed his experiences on a hardscrabble New England farm into revered, monetized literature. Along the way, Carl also reads many of his favorite Frost poems, masterfully capturing the transcendent power of these enduring masterpieces in his native voice. 
    For lovers of poetry, Frost enthusiasts, teachers and students, The Rob I Knew is a unique and absorbing way to explore and appreciate one of our great American poets. 
    Eric Copenhaver, author and performer of this compelling audiobook, is a displaced New Hampshire native and lifelong Frost devotee—who is delighted to be channeling the colorful Carl Burell.
