Download or read book Ontological Necessities written by Priscila Uppal and published by Exile Editions, Ltd.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written with the verve of the uninhibited artist but with a clarity of thought and expression more akin to the scientist or scholar, these poems investigate the emotional and philosophical struggles of contemporary life. Often sparked by the horrors depicted in today's news, the poems combine surrealist images with spare and lyrical language to grapple with an increasingly absurd world. The most ambitious piece in the collection is a radical, post-9/11 translation of the Anglo-Saxon elegy The Wanderer, and other poems include "Don Quixote, You Sure Can Take One Helluva Beating," "Film Version of My Hatred," "Never Held a Gun," and "The Romantic Impulse Hits the Schoolyard."
Download or read book Green written by Marilyn Bowering and published by Exile Editions, Ltd.. This book was released on 2007 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Echos of Frederico García Lorca, Yiannis Ritsons, and Rumi add exoticism to this poet's deceptively simple style. Combining confession with analytical rigor, most of these poems are variations on classic themes, but they are driven by the particulars of politics, love, and family life. As the poems progress, repeated symbols--such as cars, coats, cups, rooms, bees, and roses--begin to hint that the poet has a secret recipe for contentment: home and hearth, travel, warm weather, and a belief in human growth.

Download or read book Far from Nothing written by Zoltán Böszörményi and published by Exile Editions, Ltd.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ripe with love, money, and power, the story of 35-year-old Rudolf--set in a fast-paced, urban environment--begs the question Do we only think we exist? Rudolf and his wife work day and night hoping for a better life--he is a philosophy graduate student and the manager of a car dealership. He also keeps up a heart-wrenching relationship with the chic Wanda. Then there is Nina, who studies logic but is secretly a prostitute, and Alfred, owner of a car-leasing company, seemingly upright, but actually an embezzler. Each character conceals something. Be it in Hungary or North America, the craving for existential clarity remains strong.
Download or read book The German Prisoner written by James Hanley and published by Exile Editions, Ltd.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brilliant in its stark depiction of trench warfare in World War I, this lost classic was privately printed in a limited edition in 1930. British censors initially suppressed the short novel because of its tough antiwar views and sympathetic portrayals of German soldiers, and even today's readers may be unprepared for its scenes of horrific battlefield carnage and men driven to madness by relentless psychological stress. Providing a new view of an underappreciated Canadian author, the book also stands as a fascinating addition to the comparatively small shelf of literature by writers who fought in the Great War.
Download or read book That Summer in Paris written by Morley Callaghan and published by Exile Editions, Ltd.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was the fabulous summer of 1929 when the literary capital of North America moved to La Rive Gauche—the Left Bank of the Seine River—in Paris. Ernest Hemingway was reading proofs of A Farewell to Arms, and a few blocks away F. Scott Fitzgerald was struggling with Tender Is the Night. As his first published book rose to fame in New York, Morley Callaghan arrived in Paris to share the felicities of literary life, not just with his two friends, Hemingway and Fitzgerald, but also with fellow writers James Joyce, Ford Madox Ford, and Robert McAlmon. Amidst these tangled relations, some friendships flourished while others failed. This tragic and unforgettable story comes to vivid life in Callaghan's lucid, compassionate prose.
