Download or read book Broad Meadow Bird written by Brad Vogel and published by . This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Broad Meadow Bird is American poet Brad Vogel's first formal book of poetry - and a window into fifteen years of his creative output. At times visceral and flinty, at times ethereal and playful, Vogel's poetry reflects him as he comes into his own across multiple states, nations and states of mind. The sturdiness of the poet's native Wisconsin, the uniqueness of his adopted post-Katrina New Orleans and the bustle of his current home of New York City shine through in poem after poem. Five sections comprise the book, each illustrating a different facet of poetry as a means of survival in the face of modern life: "Love Songs from the Closet," focused on unrequited love and relationships; "Zen," which crystallizes moments and memories in time; "Surviving the Salt Mines," a series on persisting in the face of adversity; "Feathers," featuring short poems; and "Crazy Talk," which lets the written word and imagination run wild. With a wide range of styles and forms, Vogel presents a grand tableau - all while maintaining the strong, notable undercurrent of a distinct poetic voice. As he writes in the poem "A Defense of Love," seemingly summing up his relationship to his poems: "They are me and I am glad; love shall findeth a way."

Download or read book Hannah Whitman Heyde written by Hannah Whitman Heyde [1823-1908] and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-10 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The correspondence of Hannah Whitman Heyde (1823-1908), younger sister of poet Walt Whitman, provides a rare glimpse into the life of a nineteenth-century woman. Married to well-known Vermont landscape artist Charles Louis Heyde (1820-1892), Hannah documented in letters to her mother, Louisa Van Velsor Whitman (1795-1873), and other family members, her lived experience of ongoing physical and emotional abuse at the hands of her husband. Hannah has long been characterized in biographical and scholarly studies of Whitman’s family as a neurotic and a hypochondriac—a narrative promulgated by Heyde himself—but Walt Whitman carefully preserved his sister’s letters, telling his literary biographer that his intention was to document her plight. Hannah’s complete letters, gathered here for the first time and painstakingly edited and annotated by Maire Mullins, provide an important counternarrative, allowing readers insight into the life of a real nineteenth-century woman, sister, and wife to famous men, who endured and eventually survived domestic violence.

Download or read book Live Oak with Moss written by Walt Whitman and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Reading this book, what becomes eminently clear is that Selznick is laying the groundwork for GLBTQIA+ literary history . . . as it pertains to Whitman.” —School Library Journal As he was turning forty, Walt Whitman wrote twelve poems in a small handmade book he entitled “Live Oak, With Moss.” The poems were intensely private reflections on his attraction to and affection for other men. They were also Whitman’s most adventurous explorations of the theme of same-sex love, composed decades before the word “homosexual” came into use. This revolutionary, extraordinarily beautiful and passionate cluster of poems was never published by Whitman and has remained unknown to the general public—until now. New York Times–bestselling and Caldecott Award–winning illustrator Brian Selznick offers a provocative visual narrative of “Live Oak, With Moss,” and Whitman scholar Karen Karbiener reconstructs the story of the poetic cluster’s creation and destruction. Walt Whitman’s reassembled, reinterpreted Live Oak, With Moss serves as a source of inspiration and a cause for celebration. “In harmony, the art, the poems, and [Karbiener’s] analysis all honor while illuminating Whitman’s work and make it more accessible to contemporary readers.” —Publishers Weekly
