The Jason Silver poems were thereafter disregarded as meaningless twaddle, as were all of the Red LionsOCO other writingsOC Inspired by the Ern Malley affair, Sound and Bundy takes a new approach to the verse novel format. Presenting the works of four fictional poets in anthology form, it invites readers to draw together disparate accounts and to create their own conclusions as to what OC reallyOCO happened."

Download or read book Small Acts of Purpose written by E. A. Gleeson and published by Interactive Publications Pty Ltd. This book was released on 2017-09-06 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Minion Pro Semibold'} span.s1 {font: 12.0px 'Minion Pro'} In her third collection from Interactive Press, E. A. Gleeson casts her poetic eye as far afield as Belfast or as close to home as her own mortality. In an assured but always personal voice, she addresses the everyday, the exotic and even the taboo with immersive detail, challenging the reader to reflect on the elemental issues of modern existence. In these poems of witness and empathy, E. A. Gleeson gives voice to the suffering and enduring spirits of people across the world. Her voice is typically touching and profound, fused with a dry humour that celebrates the personal and the places that connect us. She is a master of the local and her poems zing like a bell rung. Her language is rich and playful, her imagery memorable and heart-felt. Here is a poet unafraid to ask the right questions. – Brendan Ryan Inquisitive, philosophical, with a sly sense of humour and splashes of sharp imagery, E. A. Gleeson’s main subject is her self, or should I say, “the self” in the world. This world that threatens and harms. This world that loves and delights. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Minion Pro'} p.p2 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Minion Pro'; min-height: 14.0px} p.p3 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px 'Minion Pro'; color: #2d2d2d} – Mike Ladd

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alfredson has many moods, many dictions, many themes. He at once glories in and laments the ephemeral, the only lasting quality in his world.

Download or read book Even Grimmer Tales written by Valerie Volk and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2012 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adult fairy tales – not for the faint-hearted, indeed! Valerie Volk has transported and adapted many of the classic Brothers Grimm tales into a modern context, demonstrating that the "real" can sometimes be more bizarre and horrific than the imaginary. With witty prose pieces to set the scene and Leszek Hermanowicz's clever drawings to enhance the mood, each poem becomes a tour de force, demonstrating how these tales still have relevance today. The Brothers would certainly approve!
Download or read book Preparations for Departure written by Nathanael O'Reilly and published by Apollo Books. This book was released on 2017 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joseph Brodsky, the Russian Nobel laureate, once remarked that memory and art have in common the 'ability to select, a taste for detail.' In the work of Nathanael O'Reilly, memory and art come together to bring us poems that remember what cannot-what must not-be forgotten, in rich and telling detail and with a taste for quiet but incisive irony.--Paul Kane ***Nathanael O'Reilly's poems sound the major themes of Australian poetry: landscape, displacement, yearning, and above all a critique of cultural narrowness. O'Reilly's plain-spoken diction is often laced with understated wit, but is given ballast by its principled grounding in lived experience.--Nicholas Birns ***The poems in this transnational, cosmopolitan collection traverse fourteen countries, from Australia, the poet's homeland, to the United States, his place of residence, making stops in ancestral homelands Ireland and England, and passing through continental Europe and the Middle East. O'Reilly's poetry continually crosses both visible and invisible borders, excavating landscapes and the local, belonging and unbelonging, cross-cultural exchanges, expatriation, globalisation, exile, identity, youth, loss, relationships, aging, and death. The speakers in the poems are often in motion or making preparations for departure, unwilling and unable to remain static, always eager to explore. (Series: UWAP Poetry) [Subject: Poetry]
