Book excerpt: "We've tamed too much of our world, too much of our mind, too much of our soul. Doug Thorpe helps us understand what Thoreau really meant when he said that in wildness is the preservation of the world." --Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature "Doug Thorpe has thought deeply-as he has trekked deeply-into the terra incognita where lies the intersection of the phenomenal and the supposed pre-phenomenal, understanding that language itself is the surest tool whereby the pilgrim might discover those traces joining what is visible and what is not, a disposition more likely than most for apprehending revelation." --Scott Cairns, author of Short Trip to the Edge; Where Earth Meets Heaven-A Pilgrimage "Throughout Rapture of the Deep Doug Thorpe pursues, and is pursued by, one question: 'What will we do with the wild truth?' [...] Thorpe's quest-narrative is further enhanced by the authentic and insightful way in which he interweaves the writers he loves, including Dante and Wordsworth, Jung, Pullman and LeGuin. I feel personally grateful as a reader, writer, teacher and householder for this illuminating book." --John Elder

Download or read book Nine Lessons From The Dark written by Adam Thorpe and published by Random House. This book was released on 2013-01-31 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adam Thorpe's fourth collection continues his engagement with history: the living continuum that connects us with our near and distant past, nourishing and illuminating our present. Here are traces left of presence: Indian scratchings on rock, the nail-marks of destroyed frescoes, spoken fragments of war memories - petroglyphs that function as both memorials and re-awakenings, traceable with the finger of the imagination. And here, too, are images of the stilled, the stopped life: a snowed-up village, the paralysed victim of motor-neurone disease, a soft drink fermented in an old village cafe. From this rueful equilibrium of mid-life, Thorpe circles his own personal history, allowing regret and anticipation their Janus-like say. These are erudite, generous poems, formally versatile yet rich in startlingly original observation and a natural lyric grace. Performing his unique archaeology on lives lived, Adam Thorpe once again displays the range of his imagination and the depth of his humanity.

Download or read book Forever More written by Robert Thorpe and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this selection of Robert Thorpe's poetry, he uses thought-provoking and heartwarming imagery to mirror his profound connections to his faith in God, his Texas home, his country, and the relationships he's experienced throughout his life. From "This Valued and Rare Treat," a romantic ode to the poet's first true love to "Slow Is its Ride," a jaunty tribute to a respected member of the police force, each poem in Forever More, Soul & Spiritual is a touching composition woven from the threads of one man's common, yet meaningful life. Whether boisterously proclaiming the assets of an old-fashioned Texan barbecue, or painting a sober portrayal of the death of a beloved soul mate, each verse offers up a beautiful scene that will strike an emotional chord with any reader. With compelling imagery and unforgettable emotion, Forever More, Soul & Spiritual takes the reader on a deep journey into the heart of one ordinary man from a small town in Texas. "Preserve and seek your dreams, as I have with my writings, for if they are noble and of God, they will be fulfilled," Thorpe writes. Sometimes somber, never dreary, Thorpe has painted a poetic landscape that portrays a life rich in spirituality, hopefulness, and love.

Download or read book Shifts written by Adam Thorpe and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his first collection of short stories, Adam Thorpe, acclaimed poet and novelist, explores the lives of his characters through the work they do: the jobs that empower or enslave, define or destroy them. Whether it is a dustman or a craftsman, on an English production line or deep in the forests of Africa, work is seen as a means of social classification, an engine of prejudice or compassion or as an arena where bullying and subservience have some kind of legitimacy. Do we choose the job or does the job choose us, Adam Thorpe asks: does the job become us or do we become the job? Using the framework of occupation, its mundane tedium, its strictures and releases, we are shown the unquenchable vitality of the human spirit: its continual capacity for a life beyond. Told with vivid energy and a poet's delight in language, Shifts confirms Adam Thorpe as one of the most talented writers of his generation.
