Download or read book Sisyphus In The City and Other Poems written by T.D. Richards and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-11 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In these poems, T.D. Richards imaginatively and unflinchingly examines the oddness of old age- “a rutabaga/ ripening inside us/ unnoticed till winter/ when knuckles sprout knobs/ and lips turn purple, skin/the color of mud.” As the poet presents strikingly original images of old age, he also offers insights related to coming to terms with it. Like Camus’ hero, who creates his life meaning through the task of rolling a boulder uphill, the speaker in Sisyphus in the City finds value in digging up and arranging the touchstones of his life. A snatch of song, two cardinals on the feeder, a grandmother’s potbelly stove, the scent of Shalimar and Old Spice - this and more become “treasure unearthed for one last look.” Shari Wagner, Indiana Poet Laureate, author of “The Harmonist at Nightfall” The pure art of metaphor- “stirring of stone soup” and “rutabaga ripening inside of us”- is evident throughout. But what best demonstrates Richards’s curious eye are the everyday things, like the “earthy scent” that “issues from the unwashed hollow of our arms” and the trash man, “lifting garbage cans like prized trophies won at the Olympics.” And who would not want to be in the car when Fats Domino grabs the wheel heading home from the 1950s prom? John Bowman, published poet and author of “This Could Be the House I Die In” In “Sisyphus in the City,” T. D. Richards’ poems move beyond a dialectic between life’s hardships and its joys, imploring readers to discover the sweetness of life amidst the bitter, and thus we find the characters in his poems humming, dancing, drinking, and celebrating, all while living within the harsh realities of the world. The strength of Richards’ poems are in their message but also in their language. Sensory details create visceral poems that allow readers to feel the worlds and characters he creates. “…..the scent of Shalimar/ and Old Spice blend on the dance floor/ ablaze with the heat of bodies/..” By complementing language with message, Richards leaves readers feeling they’ve traversed life itself, not always easy, yet certainly worth celebrating. Kyle D. Craig, published poet and author of “Invisible Tea.”

Book excerpt: In this stunning collection of new poems, Mary Oliver returns to the imagery that has defined her life’s work, describing with wonder both the everyday and the unaffected beauty of nature.

Whether considering a bird’s nest, the seeming patience of oak trees, or the artworks of Franz Marc, Oliver reminds us of the transformative power of attention and how much can be contained within the smallest moments. At its heart, Blue Horses asks what it means to truly belong to this world, to live in it attuned to all its changes. Humorous, gentle, and always honest, Oliver is a visionary of the natural world.

Download or read book The Native American Renaissance written by Alan R. Velie and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The outpouring of Native American literature that followed the publication of N. Scott Momaday’s Pulitzer Prize–winning House Made of Dawn in 1968 continues unabated. Fiction and poetry, autobiography and discursive writing from such writers as James Welch, Gerald Vizenor, and Leslie Marmon Silko constitute what critic Kenneth Lincoln in 1983 termed the Native American Renaissance. This collection of essays takes the measure of that efflorescence. The contributors scrutinize writers from Momaday to Sherman Alexie, analyzing works by Native women, First Nations Canadian writers, postmodernists, and such theorists as Robert Warrior, Jace Weaver, and Craig Womack. Weaver’s own examination of the development of Native literary criticism since 1968 focuses on Native American literary nationalism. Alan R. Velie turns to the achievement of Momaday to examine the ways Native novelists have influenced one another. Post-renaissance and postmodern writers are discussed in company with newer writers such as Gordon Henry, Jr., and D. L. Birchfield. Critical essays discuss the poetry of Simon Ortiz, Kimberly Blaeser, Diane Glancy, Luci Tapahonso, and Ray A. Young Bear, as well as the life writings of Janet Campbell Hale, Carter Revard, and Jim Barnes. An essay on Native drama examines the work of Hanay Geiogamah, the Native American Theater Ensemble, and Spider Woman Theatre. In the volume’s concluding essay, Kenneth Lincoln reflects on the history of the Native American Renaissance up to and beyond his seminal work, and discusses Native literature’s legacy and future. The essays collected here underscore the vitality of Native American literature and the need for debate on theory and ideology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unbinding chronicles a woman’s experience of finding her way through and out of a twenty-year marriage rooted in domestic violence, as well as her continued unbinding from trauma. The abuse she survives is particularly insidious due to the fact that she is married to a pastor, and thus it includes not just emotional, psychological, physical, and sexual abuse, but also spiritual abuse.
