Book The Veil  and Other Poems

Download or read book The Veil and Other Poems written by Walter De la Mare and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-10-28 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Walter De la Mare's collection of poems, 'The Veil, and Other Poems,' readers are invited into a hauntingly ethereal world where the boundaries between the living and the supernatural blur. De la Mare's lyrical and atmospheric writing style creates a sense of mystery and unease, drawing readers into the dark recesses of the human psyche. The poems in this collection explore themes of death, the afterlife, and the unknown, challenging readers to confront their deepest fears and desires. De la Mare's use of symbolism and imagery adds depth and complexity to his work, inviting readers to interpret the poems on multiple levels. 'The Veil, and Other Poems' is a masterful example of modernist poetry, showcasing De la Mare's talent for creating evocative and thought-provoking verse. Walter De la Mare, a British poet and novelist, was known for his fascination with the supernatural and the macabre. His own experiences with the unknown likely inspired the themes present in 'The Veil, and Other Poems,' as he delves into the shadows that lurk just beyond our perceptions. De la Mare's unique perspective and poetic vision set him apart as a key figure in the modernist literary movement. I highly recommend 'The Veil, and Other Poems' to readers who appreciate poetry that challenges conventions and delves into the darker aspects of the human experience. De la Mare's skillful use of language and imagery creates a mesmerizing and unforgettable reading experience that will linger in the mind long after the final page is turned.

Book excerpt: A few weeks after her father's death, linguist and educator, Lisa Smartt, heard his voice asking that she transcribe poems from beyond the veil for his beloved, Susan, wife of of 54 years. Was it truly the spirit of her father or merely her imagination? Lisa is not sure, but the poems inspired by his voice are beautiful, so she gathered them together into this collection in celebration and memory of his life and love. Those who read the poems agree that they have a vision about them, as if from a perspective much greater than ours and offer an expanded appreciation of all we are. Rafael Gonzalez, Poet Laureate of Berkeley, Ca, writes, "And whose poems are they? Lisa's? Her father Morton's from beyond the threshold? It matters not. What matters are the poems themselves, celebrations of life and of love, lyrical, tender and passionate..."

Book House of Lords and Commons

    Book Details:
  • Author : Ishion Hutchinson
  • Publisher : Farrar, Straus and Giroux
  • Release : 2016-09-20
  • ISBN : 0374714541
  • Pages : 97 pages

Download or read book House of Lords and Commons written by Ishion Hutchinson and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2016-09-20 with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning collection that traverses the borders of culture and time, from the 2011 winner of the PEN/Joyce Osterweil Award In House of Lords and Commons, the revelatory and vital new collection of poems from the winner of the 2013 Whiting Writers’ Award in poetry, Ishion Hutchinson returns to the difficult beauty of the Jamaican landscape with remarkable lyric precision. Here, the poet holds his world in full focus but at an astonishing angle: from the violence of the seventeenth-century English Civil War as refracted through a mythic sea wanderer, right down to the dark interior of love. These poems arrange the contemporary continuum of home and abroad into a wonderment of cracked narrative sequences and tumultuous personae. With ears tuned to the vernacular, the collection vividly binds us to what is terrifying about happiness, loss, and the lure of the sea. House of Lords and Commons testifies to the particular courage it takes to wade unsettled, uncertain, and unfettered in the wake of our shared human experience.

  • Author : Javier Zamora
  • Publisher : Copper Canyon Press
  • Release : 2018-05-01
  • ISBN : 1619321777
  • Pages : 118 pages

Download or read book Unaccompanied written by Javier Zamora and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestselling Author of Solito "Every line resonates with a wind that crosses oceans."—Jamaal May "Zamora's work is real life turned into myth and myth made real life." —Glappitnova Javier Zamora was nine years old when he traveled unaccompanied 4,000 miles, across multiple borders, from El Salvador to the United States to be reunited with his parents. This dramatic and hope-filled poetry debut humanizes the highly charged and polarizing rhetoric of border-crossing; assesses borderland politics, race, and immigration on a profoundly personal level; and simultaneously remembers and imagines a birth country that's been left behind. Through an unflinching gaze, plainspoken diction, and a combination of Spanish and English, Unaccompanied crosses rugged terrain where families are lost and reunited, coyotes lead migrants astray, and "the thin white man let us drink from a hose / while pointing his shotgun." From "Let Me Try Again": He knew we weren't Mexican. He must've remembered his family coming over the border, or the border coming over them, because he drove us to the border and told us next time, rest at least five days, don't trust anyone calling themselves coyotes, bring more tortillas, sardines, Alhambra. He knew we would try again. And again—like everyone does. Javier Zamora was born in El Salvador and immigrated to the United States at the age of nine. He earned a BA at UC-Berkeley, an MFA at New York University, and is a 2016–2018 Wallace Stegner Fellow at Stanford University.
