Download or read book The Unusual Odyssey of an Octogenarian written by Paul Sutcliffe and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005-09 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Odyssey of an Octogenarian is certainly different. From 1920, when at age 5, my first disastrous adventure occurred until the present time, I have experienced moment after moment of unexpected surprises, of traumatic panics, of impossible coincidences and finally of idiotic decisions I made which some how have always turned into very happy memories. I know that most books are written for monetary profit. At ninety years of age, and with out any close relatives, my writing for profit is kind of ridiculous. Of the two other choices, I hope this effort will be construed as a labor of love rather than as an ego trip. In any event I have arranged for any possible royalties to be donated to Bakersfield and other American worth while endeavors. So please read and enjoy! In any event I have arranged for any possible royalties to be set aside and donated directly to the Katrina-Rita disaster fund.

Download or read book Experimentalism in Wordsworth s Later Poetry written by Tim Fulford and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Experimentalism in Wordsworth's Later Poetry Tim Fulford provides detailed readings of a range of little-known, late and difficult poems which together present an alternative Wordsworth to the one we are used to. This newly-revealed Wordsworth continued experimenting with form, genre and style as his career progressed so as to ponder the challenging experiences presented by later life. Fulford invites the reader to engage, through Wordsworth's poetry, with such broadly-felt concerns as quarantine, isolation, mental illness and bereavement. Focused yet broad in chronological scope, this study also considers the literature of Wordsworth's old age in relation to his earlier work. Tim Fulford is the author of many books and articles on the literature and history of the Romantic Period (1780-1840), and is the editor of The New Cambridge Companion to Coleridge (2022). His monograph Wordsworth's Poetry 1815-45 (2019) won the Robert Penn Warren/Cleanth Brooks Award for Literary Scholarship 2020. His edition The Collected Letters of Sir Humphry Davy (co-edited with Sharon Ruston) (2020) won an honourable mention in the MLA biennial Morton N. Cohen Award For A Distinguished Edition Of Letters"--

Download or read book The Back Chamber written by Donald Hall and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The former US poet laureate has crafted poems full of “unexpected insights, charms, droll observations, self-mockery, and well-earned wisdom” (Rain Taxi). In The Back Chamber, Donald Hall illuminates the evocative, iconic objects of deep memory—a cowbell, a white stone perfectly round, a three-legged milking stool—that serve to foreground the rich meditations on time and mortality that run through this remarkable collection. While Hall’s devoted readers will recognize many of his long-standing preoccupations—baseball, the family farm, love, sex, and friendship—what will strike them as new is the fierce, pitiless poignancy he reveals as his own life’s end comes into view. The Back Chamber is far from being death-haunted, but rather is lively, irreverent, erotic, hilarious, ironic, and sly—full of the life-affirming energy that has made Donald Hall one of America’s most popular and enduring poets. “For the reader boiling in triple-digit SoCal heat at the end of the summer, Donald Hall’s The Back Chamber: Poems arrives like a sudden cloudburst and shower of cooling rain . . . A former U.S. poet laureate, Hall has always had this elemental power—to vividly evoke his particular New England climate and geography so that it can’t be mistaken for any other—but what is more unexpected in this new collection of poems, his 16th, is passion.” —Los Angeles Times “The former U.S. poet laureate reaches his 20th book in unmistakably honest form, aggressively plain and unfailingly open about sex, old age, suicide, recovery, the friendship of poets, the business of poetry, dogs, New Hampshire, and baseball.” —Publishers Weekly
