Download or read book Drinking with Bukowski written by Daniel Weizmann and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 20th century's greatest poet was a guy from L.A. called Hank, who talked straight, drank hard, faced truth, and exposed beauty and vulnerability like no other in his place and time. Drinking with Bukowski is a celebration of that utterly original voice featuring contributions from everyone from the women who loved him to the Hollywood cognoscenti who courted him, from writers who admired him and actors who tried to emulate him to the barflies, strippers, gangsters, poets, crazies, and dreamers who knew him: Raymond Carver, Wanda Coleman, Harold Norse, Michael C. Ford, and Paul Vangelisti pay homage and recount the Dionysian days of L.A. poetry; record producer Harvey Robert Kubernik and journalist Barry Miles remember capturing Buk on vinyl for the first time; novelist Steve Abee remembers the early days of L.A.'s underground newspapers - Open City and the L.A. Free Press - Bukowski's early stomping grounds.

Download or read book A Nail the Evening Hangs On written by Monica Sok and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2020-03-31 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her debut collection, Monica Sok uses poetry to reshape a family’s memory about the Khmer Rouge regime—memory that is both real and imagined—according to a child of refugees. Driven by myth-making and fables, the poems examine the inheritance of the genocide and the profound struggles of searing grief and PTSD. Though the landscape of Cambodia is always present, it is the liminal space, the in-betweenness of diaspora, in which younger generations must reconcile their history and create new rituals. A Nail the Evening Hangs On seeks to reclaim the Cambodian narrative with tenderness and an imagination that moves towards wholeness and possibility.

Download or read book 1921 A Poetic Recollection written by Dr K K N Kurup and published by Yuvatha Book House. This book was released on 2020-11-04 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first collection of poetry exclusively on the topic of Malabar Rebellion, 1921 by an eminent scholar and expert historian Dr KKN Kurup is a masterfully poeticised chronicle of a much misrepresented chapter in the history of Independence struggles in India. In this metrically composed book of history, the poet takes the reader for a carefully guided tread into the most manipulated and misinterpreted images, exposing their true form and emphasising their true significance. 1921, through its thirty four different poetic portrayals, takes a bold stance tracing some of the individual personalities and incidents for their true self. Nearly a century after, the book forces us to take a new look at the Malabar Rebellion and its subtle communitarian dimensions. It adds a new perspective to the unceasing debate on the Rebellion with its essential thrust on different personalities and villages associated with the Rebellion.

Download or read book Soundless Roar written by Ava Kadishson Schieber and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2002-05-15 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Soundless Roar introduces a distinctive new voice to Holocaust literature. Ava Kadishson Schieber, author, poet, and artist, spent her teenage years hiding from the Nazis on a Serbian farm. Her cultured speech and city-bred body language could have betrayed her, so she was forced into near isolation. Schieber began drawing while in hiding, and she continues to express herself today with the same urgency. The drawings and writings in Soundless Roar are the culmination of many years of artistry. In her work, she shares her memories of loved ones killed in the Holocaust: they are "friendly ghosts" that will always be a part of her. Schieber's drawings, paintings, poetry, and prose are all intimate reflections of one another. Her experience forged the unusual sense of time that shapes Schieber's stories. In her preface, Phyllis Lassner writes: "The timetable of Ava's stories often consists of circles within circles, of patterns of an intertwined past, the past present of hiding, and the present looking back at those distinctly separate but inseparable pasts."
