Download or read book The Bitten World written by José A. Alcántara and published by . This book was released on 2022-01-15 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I love the clarity and directness of these poems, the precision of both vision and language here, where perception and imagination are inseparable, where a deep intelligence and cutting wit are met always, and always unexpectedly, by magic. José Alcántara pays deep attention to the 'ordinary,' to the physical, especially to the natural world, which attention is the truest love. And while each poem is a true lyric, a whole song in itself, the cumulative effect is greater, a quiet symphony of the senses and the spirit."--Cecilia Woloch "With a mathematician's passion for accuracy, José Alcántara meditates on the difficult equations of our deepest concerns. The balance between love and indifference, faith and cynicism, self and other are revealed in images which range from the commonplace to the absurd. In one poem, Virgil leads the poet to the banks of a burning river where he finds Emmett Till's eyeball. In another, the little potbelly and tiny bald head of an American general cannot be reconciled with the large horrors he inflicted in Iraq. In these poems, we follow the poet out of the circle of light and into the blood of our final becoming: 'To love the world is to be a small fish / swallowing a large one.'"--Michael Simms "José Alcántara is a powerhouse of imagination and expression. The poet finds the absolute shining, spinning heart of every moment and reveals the wonder, truth, and humor within. In 'Book Review,' an afternoon reading on the porch with a puppy chewing on a pig's ear becomes a vivid celebration of meaning. In "Straw Man," the narrator takes a familiar fallacy and sprints at the speed of sound into a wildly wicked disquisition on the proper gifts to such a scarecrow for birthday and Christmas presents. Alcántara never misses an opportunity to be funny or profound and usually melds both in every word, image, and line. After every poem, I find myself looking skyward just to savor the light."--Eric Paul Shaffer Poetry.
Download or read book A Walk in the Woods written by Bill Bryson and published by Anchor Canada. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God only knows what possessed Bill Bryson, a reluctant adventurer if ever there was one, to undertake a gruelling hike along the world's longest continuous footpath—The Appalachian Trail. The 2,000-plus-mile trail winds through 14 states, stretching along the east coast of the United States, from Georgia to Maine. It snakes through some of the wildest and most spectacular landscapes in North America, as well as through some of its most poverty-stricken and primitive backwoods areas. With his offbeat sensibility, his eye for the absurd, and his laugh-out-loud sense of humour, Bryson recounts his confrontations with nature at its most uncompromising over his five-month journey. An instant classic, riotously funny, A Walk in the Woods will add a whole new audience to the legions of Bill Bryson fans.

Download or read book Grandma Gatewood s Walk written by Ben Montgomery and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2014-04-01 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2014 National Outdoor Book Awards for History/Biography Emma Gatewood told her family she was going on a walk and left her small Ohio hometown with a change of clothes and less than two hundred dollars. The next anybody heard from her, this genteel, farm-reared, 67-year-old great-grandmother had walked 800 miles along the 2,050-mile Appalachian Trail. And in September 1955, having survived a rattlesnake strike, two hurricanes, and a run-in with gangsters from Harlem, she stood atop Maine's Mount Katahdin. There she sang the first verse of "America, the Beautiful" and proclaimed, "I said I'll do it, and I've done it." Grandma Gatewood, as the reporters called her, became the first woman to hike the entire Appalachian Trail alone, as well as the first person—man or woman—to walk it twice and three times. Gatewood became a hiking celebrity and appeared on TV and in the pages of Sports Illustrated. The public attention she brought to the little-known footpath was unprecedented. Her vocal criticism of the lousy, difficult stretches led to bolstered maintenance, and very likely saved the trail from extinction. Author Ben Montgomery was given unprecedented access to Gatewood's own diaries, trail journals, and correspondence, and interviewed surviving family members and those she met along her hike, all to answer the question so many asked: Why did she do it? The story of Grandma Gatewood will inspire readers of all ages by illustrating the full power of human spirit and determination. Even those who know of Gatewood don't know the full story—a story of triumph from pain, rebellion from brutality, hope from suffering.
