Download or read book A Glimpse From My Gallery written by Vageesha and published by Authors Tree Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘A Glimpse From My Gallery’ is a collection of some of the best 25 poetic compositions and is all about a myriad of complicated human emotions that people at times are able and at other times, unable to showcase to their loved ones. The name itself signifies its pertinence by offering a glimpse of the outside world from my ‘gallery’. Here, you (all my readers) will have a ride through my perception of profuse aspects of emotional jerks within a life. In my debut book, I have assorted copious conversational dialogues in a manner to let people have a vision of mine to take a look over a situation under the segment of ‘Matter That I Want To Convey’. This segment will conceivably be able to assist you to put yourself into my shoes. However, the exciting aspect of this book is that you’d probably not be able to check out astonishing rhyming words, but I can assure you that you will have a great time reading it. This book is undoubtedly very special and close to my heart due to many reasons. In the list of why it is so exceptional to me as it consists of innumerable compositions of mine that hold an extraordinary corner of my heart. It is the epitome of accurate balance between the bond and how people relate to a particular emotion that comes across their way. And of course! It’s my debut book and this is more than enough to celebrate good luck. Hoping from all of you, the love and feedback on how much you loved it and what you would like me to write on ahead. At the end of this note, all I would love to say to all of you is, just keep reading, keep loving, and keep showering your blessings over this book that has traveled a long journey so far.
Download or read book Half light written by Frank Bidart and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2017-08-15 with total page 736 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collected works of one of contemporary poetry’s most original voices Gathered together, the poems of Frank Bidart perform one of the most remarkable transmutations of the body into language in contemporary literature. His pages represent the human voice in all its extreme registers, whether it’s that of the child-murderer Herbert White, the obsessive anorexic Ellen West, the tormented genius Vaslav Nijinsky, or the poet’s own. And in that embodiment is a transgressive empathy, one that recognizes our wild appetites, the monsters, the misfits, the misunderstood among us and inside us. Few writers have so willingly ventured to the dark places of the human psyche and allowed themselves to be stripped bare on the page with such candor and vulnerability. Over the past half century, Bidart has done nothing less than invent a poetics commensurate with the chaos and appetites of our experience. Half-light encompasses all of Bidart’s previous books, and also includes a new collection, Thirst, in which the poet austerely surveys his life, laying it plain for us before venturing into something new and unknown. Here Bidart finds himself a “Creature coterminous with thirst,” still longing, still searching in himself, one of the “queers of the universe.” Visionary and revelatory, intimate and unguarded, Bidart’s Half-light: Collected Poems 1965-2017 are a radical confrontation with human nature, a conflict eternally renewed and reframed, restless line by restless line.
