Download or read book Hartley Field Large Print 16pt written by Connie Wanek and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The poems in Hartley Field are by turns witty and amusing, lyrical and moving. But always they are clear and -direct. Wanek writes clever, closely observed poems on subjects as diverse as ''Butter'' and ''the Hammer,'' work which is in the tradition of Francis Ponge and Pablo Neruda. These are often humorous and are enormous fun to read. Similarly, a number of poems focus upon children's games and activities (''Checkers'' and ''Jump Rope,'' among others), and explore them physically and psychologically. What is most remarkable about this collection is the consistent originality of the imagery and elegance of language. In the poem ''Late September,'' we find ''a plumed of smoke hand-feeding the wind.'' The object poem ''lemon'' observes that the fruit has ''bumpers on both ends like a Volks wagon.'' A racoon advancing into a dark yard is described as ''a creature both manly and womanly/capable of force or seduction.'' Here is the first stanza of the elegiac ''After Us.'' Rain is falling through the roof. And all that prospered under the sun the books that opened in the morning and closed at night, and all day turned their pages to the light. . . . Joyce Sutphen says of Wanek, ''Nothing about what she says or sees is routine...(Hartley Field) is a book of revelations; in poem after poem, some ordinary object or event is split open with such keen tenderness that the heart is caught off guard.'' Connie Wanek was born in 1952 and lives in Duluth, Minnesota. She is the author of Bonfire, published in 1997 by New Rivers Press. Her poems have appeared in The Atlantic Monthly, Poetry, The Virginia Quarterly, Country Journal, and many other publications. She has been awarded fellowship support from the Arrowhead Regional Arts Council and The Jerome Foundation.

Download or read book Marsden Hartley written by Townsend Ludington and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A penetrating biography.... Ludington offers a psychological portrait of an intense, contradictory, scornful, but gentle man who transcended his nineteenth-century roots in Lewiston, Maine, to view Europe as his home and to make a distinctive contribution to modernism."--Kirkus Reviews"Drawing on Hartley's letters and other writings as well as on the correspondence and reminiscences of the artist's friends, Ludington traces the restless career of the painter.... [Hartley] had troubled friendships with some of the most important artists and writers of his day--Gertrude Stein, William Carlos Williams, Fairfield Porter, Eugene O'Neill, Georgia O'Keeffe, and others. His relationship with Alfred Stieglitz, who supported him financially and exhibited his work, ... runs like a leitmotif through the book, and indicates Hartley's character--demanding, touchy, often ungrateful but also compelling.... This frank and unsentimental account of a life of contradictions and paradoxes returns one to the artist's paintings with a fresh eye."--Publishers Weekly"Marsden Hartley (1877-1943) had a virtually unique role as a modernist painter. He was notable not only for his powerful canvases but for his poetry and essays. Townsend Ludington's astute portrait of the artist focuses upon his cosmopolitan sensibility in a generation melding modern art with an American tradition of mystical idealism.... Ludington views Hartley as an essential American artist embarked on a spiritual odyssey."--Robert Taylor, Boston Globe
