Download or read book The Book of More Delights written by Ross Gay and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From bestselling author of The Book of Delights and award-winning poet, a book of lyrical mini-essays celebrating the everyday that will inspire readers to rediscover the joys in the world around us. In Ross Gay’s new collection of small, daily wonders, again written over the course of a year, one of America’s most original voices continues his ongoing investigation of delight. For Gay, what delights us is what connects us, what gives us meaning, from the joy of hearing a nostalgic song blasting from a passing car to the pleasure of refusing the “nefarious” scannable QR code menus, from the tiny dog he fell hard for to his mother baking a dozen kinds of cookies for her grandchildren. As always, Gay revels in the natural world—sweet potatoes being harvested, a hummingbird carousing in the beebalm, a sunflower growing out of a wall around the cemetery, the shared bounty from a neighbor’s fig tree—and the trillion mysterious ways this glorious earth delights us. The Book of (More) Delights is a volume to savor and share.

Download or read book All Violet written by Rani Rivera and published by Dagger Editions. This book was released on 2017-09 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In All Violet, a young woman chronicles the experience of living on the margins, in spaces and places where body and mind are flayed by guilt, disappointments and betrayals. Her poems record the shattering trauma of struggling to survive through periods of doubt, fear, rage and pain, creating a narrative of disconnection, indignation, alienation and emptiness, the extremes of suffering and desperation. Employing lyrical free verse, Rani Rivera has skillfully employed the short line to pinpoint moments of acute perception. Unadorned, taut and precise cries of pain, loss and fury draw the reader deeper and deeper inside this in-your-face confrontation with a dark world of foreboding alleviated by flashes of mordant wit and grace under fire.

Download or read book Spring and All written by William Carlos Williams and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-08-03 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spring and All (1923) is a book of poems by William Carlos Williams. Predominately known as a poet, Williams frequently pushed the limits of prose style throughout his works, often comprised of a seamless blend of both forms of writing. In Spring and All, the closest thing to a manifesto he wrote, Williams addresses the nature of his modern poetics which not only pursues a particularly American idiom, but attempts to capture the relationship between language and the world it describes. Part essay, part poem, Spring and All is a landmark of American literature from a poet whose daring search for the outer limits of life both redefined and expanded the meaning of language itself. “There is a constant barrier between the reader and his consciousness of immediate contact with the world. If there is an ocean it is here.” In Spring and All, Williams identifies the incomprehensible nature of consciousness as the single most important subject of poetry. Accused of being “heartless” and “cruel,” of producing “positively repellant” works of art in order to “make fun of humanity,” Williams doesn’t so much defend himself as dig in his heels. His poetry is addressed “[t]o the imagination” itself; it seeks to break down the “the barrier between sense and the vaporous fringe which distracts the attention from its agonized approaches to the moment.” When he states that “so much depends / upon // a red wheel / barrow,” he refers to the need to understand the nature of language, which keeps us in touch with the world. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of William Carlos Williams’ Spring and All is a classic of American literature reimagined for modern readers.

Download or read book Inter religious Communication written by Margaret Chatterjee and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students of Religious Studies and all those concerned about the inter-communication of different religious communities in contemporary India will be challenged by this selection of Margaret Chatterjee's writings on central themes such as spirituality, religious language, the element of authority in religion, and whether there can be a consonance of religious insights between people belonging to very different cultures. In the light of the communal factor which was one of Gandhi's biggest challenges, the incisive chapter on Islam is of special interest, ranging over the Sufis, Abul Kalam Azad, A.A.A. Fyzee, Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Ubaydu'-lah Sindhi, and Sir Syed Ahmed Khan. Deeply religious as he was himself, and stressing the ethical core of religion as he did, Gandhi was reluctant to 'talk about' religion, except when pressed by close friends to do so. Taking off from some of her own academic work about religion, the author shows how Gandhi was at grips in a very practical way with problems which others had treated intellectually. She finds that Gandhi's involvement with political struggles speaks directly to our own condition in a profound and pointed manner, almost as if he were living at this hour.

Fueled by wry humor , this much-anticipated sequel to the children’s classic by Ian Fleming, creator of James Bond — fe aturing a contemporary family and a camper van with a mind of its own — is driven by best-selling, award-winning author Frank Cottrell Boyce and revved up by Joe Berger’s black-and-white illustrations.
Download or read book Whispers in the Wind written by Steve Cyphers and published by Hillcrest Publishing Group. This book was released on 2013-11-14 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Steve Cyphers' poems and short stories, written over the past fifteen or so years, explore the deeper meanings that lie within the "vast, hidden world" beneath the surface of everyday events, thoughts, and observations. His view is from the standpoint of a life well-lived in an effort to participate fully in each experience-whether painful, touching, profound, or silly. Whispers in the Wind ponders those occasions where the passion and purpose of our lives are revealed if we will only listen more carefully to our own inner voices and, perhaps, to the subtle whispers of those who have lived before. This collection is a joyful and appreciative celebration of the extraordinary alongside the ordinary. The author invites you to share his learnings, smile or laugh at the funny parts, and hopefully, find some pieces that you connect with and help you along your own journey under rocks, behind bushes, and within your heart.
