This collection of poems celebrates the quiet, every day moments of love and how the recognition of this deep, abiding calmness can be the heart's biggest flourish of all.

Download or read book Flower Flash written by Lewis Miller and published by The Monacelli Press, LLC. This book was released on 2021-11-02 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Lewis Miller, the celebrated floral designer and "Flower Bandit" himself, an intimate and joyous behind-the-scenes look at his signature Flower Flashes as they introduced bright moments of natural beauty into the city when they were needed most. Before dawn one morning in October 2016, renowned New York-based floral designer Lewis Miller stealthily arranged hundreds of brightly colored dahlias, carnations, and mums into a psychedelic halo around the John Lennon memorial in Central Park. The spontaneous floral installation was Miller's gift to the city—an effort to spark joy during a difficult time. Nearly five years and more than ninety Flower Flashes later, these elaborate flower bombs—bursts of jubilant blooms in trash cans, over bus canopies, on construction sites and traffic medians—have brought moments of delight and wonder to countless New Yorkers and flower lovers everywhere, and earned Miller a following of dedicated fans and the nickname the "Flower Bandit." After New York City entered lockdown, Miller doubled down, creating Flower Flashes outside hospitals to express gratitude to frontline health workers and throughout the city to raise spirits. This gorgeous and poignant visual diary traces the phenomenon from the first, spontaneous Flower Flash to the even more profound installations of the pandemic through a kaleidoscopic collage of photos documenting the Flower Flashes, behind-the-scenes snapshots, Miller's inspiration material, fan contributions, and more.

Download or read book A Love to Behold written by Wendy Stross and published by Dagmar Miura. This book was released on 2024-10-12 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a brief intense romance, Archie ghosts Anne—forty-three years later, Archie returns to tell Anne, that she is the love of his life. He’s dead. And then, he simply moves into Anne’s life, a world in which she is already struggling, feeling despair. Archie explains that he and Anne are twin flames, two halves of the same soul, and that with his death, their soul contract that spanned hundreds of lifetimes is complete, with one exception. They had promised to write their love story. What love story?! They had dated a mere three months. This is the story of Anne and Archie as they come together, recall their deep love for each other, and forge a ground-breaking relationship that bridges the veil and is in two worlds, one that allows them to recall, reflect, and write their love story, the one in the past, and the one that continues. Sounds easy? Well, no, there’s no map yet. Scattered throughout this narrative are letters, dreams, excerpts from Anne’s Irish journal, and snippets of conversation from the couple’s personal journals. They serve two purposes: to ground this love and relationship in Anne’s life, her world, her journey through grief to self-love; and to offer a first-hand glimpse of the love, the humour, the magic, as Anne and Archie venture forth into unchartered territory and discover for themselves how truly profound their connection is, in both worlds. For those who have loved and lost, A Love to Behold opens the door to unexplored possibilities of love and connection that transcend the bounds of space and time. That transcend death. That it is possible to keep loving at all levels, and have that love transformed and transformative.

Download or read book Love written by I. Dilman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-13 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is concerned with questions about love: questions about its many forms, strands and aspects, and the relation in which they stand to each other. It is concerned with the way different aspects of sexual love conflict with each other, with the way self-regard and self-interest can corrupt love, and with spiritual love and its difficulties. It seeks the views of some writers who have suggested some distinctive solutions to the existential problems that love poses in the face of its obstacles: Plato, Proust, Sartre, Freud, D.H. Lawrence, Erich Fromm, C.S. Lewis, Kierkegaard, Simone Weil and Kahlil Gibran.
Download or read book Queering Translation Translating the Queer written by Brian James Baer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-22 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking work is the first full book-length publication to critically engage in the emerging field of research on the queer aspects of translation and interpreting studies. The volume presents a variety of theoretical and disciplinary perspectives through fifteen contributions from both established and up-and-coming scholars in the field to demonstrate the interconnectedness between translation and queer aspects of sex, gender, and identity. The book begins with the editors’ introduction to the state of the field, providing an overview of both current and developing lines of research, and builds on this foundation to look at this research more closely, grouped around three different sections: Queer Theorizing of Translation; Case Studies of Queer Translations and Translators; and Queer Activism and Translation. This interdisciplinary approach seeks to not only shed light on this promising field of research but also to promote cross fertilization between these disciplines towards further exploring the intersections between queer studies and translation studies, making this volume key reading for students and scholars interested in translation studies, queer studies, politics, and activism, and gender and sexuality studies.
