Book excerpt: Poetry. Environmental Studies. Pamela Hughes' MEADOWLAND TAKE MY HAND is both an elegy for the continued loss of the land and an exploration of the toxic and playful. Along the track of this eco-adventure, from mountainous landfills and industrial wastelands to the low key beauty of mudflats, the swaying green give of the wetlands along a backdrop of Manhattan's fixed silver horizon, readers will discover the "order of the odor" and "the dank inside of adventure." Narrative and lyric poetry mark the way through the Meadowlands, where loss and hope abide.

Download or read book Meadowlands written by Louise Gluck and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature In an astonishing book-length sequence, Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Louise Gluck interweaves the dissolution of a contemporary marriage with the story of The Odyssey. Here is Penelope stubbornly weaving, elevating the act of waiting into an act of will; here, too, is a worldly Circe, a divided Odysseus, and a shrewd adolescent Telemachus. Through these classical figures, Meadowlands explores such timeless themes as the endless negotiation of family life, the cruelty that intimacy enables, and the frustrating trivia of the everyday. Gluck discovers in contemporary life the same quandary that lies at the heart of The Odyssey: the "unanswerable/affliction of the human heart: how to divide/the world's beauty into acceptable/and unacceptable loves."
Download or read book The Meadowlands written by Robert Sullivan and published by Anchor. This book was released on 1999-07-20 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine a grungy north Jersey version of John McPhee's classic The Pine Barrens and you'll get some idea of the idiosyncratic, fact-filled, and highly original work that is Robert Sullivan's The Meadowlands. Just five miles west of New York City, this vilified, half-developed, half-untamed, much dumped-on, and sometimes odiferous tract of swampland is home to rare birds and missing bodies, tranquil marshes and a major sports arena, burning garbage dumps and corporate headquarters, the remains of the original Penn Station--and maybe, just ,maybe, of the late Jimmy Hoffa. Robert Sullivan proves himself to be this fragile yet amazingly resilient region's perfect expolorer, historian, archaeologist, and comic bard.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's hard to believe, but it has been ten years for The Red Wheelbarrow, the Rutherford, NJ anthology that has done so much to boost the poetry of the tri-state region and create a nexus of poetic energy around the birthplace of famed poet Dr. William Carlos Williams. This is our biggest and best book to date, bursting with poetry, prose and artwork and epitomizing Williams' beliefs that a poem is a machine made of words and the epic is the local fully realized.Since Williams was a baby doctor we often get asked if we were delivered by Dr. Williams. Our answer? Not yet, but we're getting there!

Download or read book Evil Water And Other Stories written by Ian Watson and published by Gateway. This book was released on 2011-09-29 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his fourth short-story collection, Watson again demonstrates the extraordinary scope of his imagination. The title story has ancient witchcraft meeting complacent modern suburbia in a tale of spine-chilling horror, while 'When the Timegate Failed' casts an unexpected light in the dangers of space travel and man's powers of self-delusion. Alien matters of a different kind crop up in 'Windows', in which mysterious artefacts found on Mars prove to be something of a problem for their chic human owners. Evil Water is a highly inventive collection which is a delight to read.
