Download or read book Island written by Charles O. Hartman and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. A masterful poet writing in his sixth collection, Hartman harnesses thenumber pi to find the form for its introductory longpoem; celebrates aGreek island's denizens, furnishings, and views in a series of concentrated and eccentric glimpses; writes in Greek and translates back to English; and boils the cumulative song down to a rich prose meditation on maps and the body's kinesthesis, wed in the knowledge that makes, however long or briefly, a home. "If poets are lucky to study everything, Hartman's wide-ranging and inventive mind is one of the luckiest writing. His poems are our good fortune"--Boston Book Review.
Download or read book Case Sensitive written by Kate Greenstreet and published by Ahsahta Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Greenstreet's highly original CASE SENSITIVE posits a female central character who writes chapbooks that become the sections in this book. "What happens in the book I want to read?" Greenstreet asked herself. "And how would it sound?" Everything the character is reading, remembering, and dreaming turns up in what she writes, duly referenced with notes. Using natural language charged with concision and precise syntax, Greenstreet has created a memorable and lasting first collection. "A poem intrigue of the highest order. Greenstreet has made a brilliant beginning with this first book"--Kathleen Fraser. "A beautiful dwelling of ideas. CASE SENSITIVE suggests that there need be no divide between the associative connections of poetry and the extended thinking of the essay. This is a book full of luminous footnotes, details, and attentive readings. CASE SENSITIVE strings together a series of moments to create something resonate, large, and inclusive"--Juliana Spahr.

Download or read book Realm Sixty four written by Kristi Maxwell and published by Ahsahta Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Taking its name from the literal field of the chessboard, Kristi Maxwell's first book explores the dynamics of engagement, both through and within language. These poems are interested in the strategies that interactions encompass -- interactions between words, between illusion and non-illusion, between idea and image, between speakers, between voices, and between reader and text. From the history of the chess-playing automaton known as The Turk to a series of flirtations cadged in the game's battlefield language, the subjects of Maxwell's poems are rarely what they seem to be. "Like the minimalist sculptors we have learned to admire without their theories mattering anymore, these poems have pure, ephemeral lines that suggest much thought about time and utterance, yet they float free without any need for explanation. This can happen partly because Maxwell has an inspired sense of the look of the page. If you wanted to blur on her words, you would still see beauty, harmony and space" -- Fanny Howe.

Written during the two years following the death of her husband, Miriam Sagan's THE WIDOW'S COAT paints landscapes of bleak astonishment that he is no longer alive, vivid images of his continued presence in the everyday experience of memory, and jumbled ranges of confusion and surprise as she finds herself once again in love with a childhood sweetheart. "When the worst befalls the best, sometimes amazed music occurs. Miriam Sagan eulogizes and exalts so that we're able to feel our own griefs while rejoicing that she has articulated loss so bravely and well"--Joan Logghe.
Download or read book Little Ease written by Aaron McCollough and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. McCollough's concerns with ethical living and the ethical treatment of others, especially strangers, permeate this third collection of his work. Named for the 4x4 cell in the Tower of London, LITTLE EASE takes the idea of imprisonment as something that can be elective, as marital fidelity, religious beliefs, and staying true to one's ethical system generally are. "The voice speaking from these poems is always that of a prisoner," McCollough says, "sometimes very happily so." "[McCollough] takes his palette from the social and religious upheavals of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries when the grip of a 'personal God' began to tighten. Aaron McCollough is a poet of prodigious powers, able to take the full of his poetic inheritance and to make essential poetry at the center of our own ferocious gyre"--Susan Wheeler.
Download or read book 67 Mixed Messages written by Edward Allen and published by Ahsahta Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Suzi, the dark lady of these sonnets, is the breathtakingly beautiful, hopelessly elusive love object for their writer, who recognizes well the absurdity of his feelings. A collection spiked with puns and literary references, 67 MIXED MESSAGES could best be described as a work of passionate playfulness, pained sexuality, and deadly serious jokes. Every line scans, every acrostic makes sense, and every joke is funny. "With breathtaking ease, Ed Allen takes on the whole tradition of the sonnet, from Shakespeare to Frost, and emerges a clear winner.... After finishing 67 MIXED MESSAGES, I found myself echoing Allen's constant refrain, 'I love you, Suzi, too.'"--R. S. Gwynn.

The future has preoccupations and it has trajectories. The book maps these conditions... Some possibilities will blossom as others collapse. The language of the future is more beautiful than we know"--from the inside flap.

Dan Beachy-Quick confirms the promise of his first book and greatly extends the range and scope of his writing with this brilliant fantasia on a theme by Herman Melville. This multi-layered poetic work engages with Melville's text as well as with myth and with the ideas of spiritual quest, the role of the writer, and the nature of language. Rewarding multiple readings and affording continual discoveries, SPELL is a major work for the new century by an assured and gifted poet. "Intelligent, compassionate, exquisite, Beachy-Quick's is a unique voice in contemporary poetry" Cole Swensen."
Download or read book Song of a Living Room written by Brigitte Byrd and published by Ahsahta Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Invoking theorists, philosophers, and such poets as John Berryman and Lyn Hejinian, the poems of Brigitte Byrd's third book ask the reader to follow a ribbon threaded among music, movies, poetics, and an unlinear sense of time. Its prose poems recount and deconstruct a relationship between two central characters experiencing this journey "Like an authentic vision. Like slipping into a Celtic knot. Like a new perception of space." "Brigitte Byrd writes dense, lovely, provocative poems. Their prose forms and often rational diction are an entrancing shell game showing and shifting and showing again the true passion and lyricism of her work. In this way, she illuminates the eternal struggle that our minds and our bodies and our hearts are always engaged in with each other and with themselves. SONG OF A LIVING ROOM is a splendid collection"--Robert Olen Butler.
