Download or read book Modest Gifts written by Norman Mailer and published by Random House. This book was released on 2015-08-19 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unexpected collection from Norman Mailer—a book of his selected poems and more than one hundred of his drawings, most of them never before published. Modest Gifts is full of what the author calls “casual pleasures”—witty, naughty, and surprisingly tender verse and art. Lust, seduction, betrayal, jealousy, and even the banality of cocktail party chatter are depicted with humor, affection, and, above all, honesty. Here is an aspect of Norman Mailer unknown to many: lighthearted, prankish, whimsical, and often gentle, playfully sketching the intimate urban world that surrounds us. Modest, funny, and true, each poem and drawing shows a new side of one of the greatest writers of our time.
Download or read book Sketches written by Ben Burroughs and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-02-22 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than seven decades have passed since Ben Burroughs' poetry first appeared in a Philadelphia newspaper. The impact of his talent-completely lacking as it is pretentiousness- has been so great that today his daily “SKETCHES” appears in sixty-eight newspapers and is followed my millions of readers throughout the world. How can one account for such a phenomenon? The explanation lies in the very nature of Burroughs' verse, for he is truly a poet of the people, a disciple of sincerity, one who can capture the magical moments that imbue us all with a deepened insight into life's mysteries. Through his warm. Perceptive understanding, the beauty and grandeur of daily living are reveled. This is not a poet who hides his meanings and demands we seek them out. Rather in words that are so eloquent in their simplicity and graceful in their flow, he presents to us “emotional recollected in tranquility.” Wordsworth tells us this is the true definition of poetry. What of a poet himself? What manner of a man is he? Humility is perhaps the dominant virtue characterizing Burroughs' creative efforts. Modest in the light of his success, he is appreciated that he has been blessed with the talent that enables him to erase some of the drabness that is common in daily living. No ivory tower recluse, he follows the tradition of art that draws its sustenance from the life as it is lived by the many.

Book excerpt: Caldecott Medalist Allen Say presents a stunning graphic novel chronicling his journey as an artist during WWII, when he apprenticed under Noro Shinpei, Japan's premier cartoonist DRAWING FROM MEMORY is Allen Say's own story of his path to becoming the renowned artist he is today. Shunned by his father, who didn't understand his son's artistic leanings, Allen was embraced by Noro Shinpei, Japan's leading cartoonist and the man he came to love as his "spiritual father." As WWII raged, Allen was further inspired to consider questions of his own heritage and the motivations of those around him. He worked hard in rigorous drawing classes, studied, trained--and ultimately came to understand who he really is. Part memoir, part graphic novel, part narrative history, DRAWING FROM MEMORY presents a complex look at the real-life relationship between a mentor and his student. With watercolor paintings, original cartoons, vintage photographs, and maps, Allen Say has created a book that will inspire the artist in all of us.
Download or read book Book of Sketches written by Jack Kerouac and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-04-04 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A luminous, intimate, and transcendental glimpse into the mind of Jack Kerouac, one of the most original voices of the twentieth century “Sketching . . . Everything activates in front of you in myriad profusion, you just have to purify your mind and let it pour the words and write with 100% personal honesty.” In 1951, it was suggested to Jack Kerouac by his friend Ed White that he “sketch in the streets like a painter but with words.” In August of the following year, Kerouac began writing down prose poem “sketches” in small notebooks that he kept in the breast pockets of his shirts. For two years he recorded travels, observations, and meditations on art and life as he moved across America and down to Mexico and back. The poems are often strung together so that over the course of several of them, a little story—or travelogue—appears, complete in itself. In 1957, Kerouac sat down with the fifteen handwritten sketch notebooks he had accumulated and typed them into a manuscript called Book of Sketches. Published for the first time, this work offers a detailed portrait of Kerouac at a key period of his literary career.
