Download or read book Parallel Movement of the Hands written by John Ashbery and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunning collection of work from beloved poet John Ashbery, his first posthumous book Renowned for his inventive mind, ambitious play with language, and dexterity with a wide range of tones and styles, John Ashbery has been a major artistic figure in the cultural life of our time. Parallel Movement of the Hands gathers unpublished, book-length projects and long poems written between 1993 and 2007, along with one (as yet) undated work, to showcase Ashbery’s diverse and multifaceted artistic obsessions and sources, from children’s literature, cliffhanger cinema reels, silent films, and classical music variations by Beethoven’s pupil Carl Czerny to the history of early photography. Ashbery even provides a fresh and humorous take on a well-worn parable from the Gospel of Matthew. These works demonstrate that while producing and publishing the shorter, discrete poems often associated with his late career, Ashbery continued to practice the long-form, project-based writing that has long been an important element of his oeuvre. Edited and introduced by Ashbery’s former assistant poet Emily Skillings and including a preface by acclaimed poet and novelist Ben Lerner, this compelling and varied collection offers new insights into the process and creative interests of a poet whose work continues to influence generations of artists and poets with its signature intertextuality, openness, and simultaneity. A landmark publication of never-before-seen works, this book will enlighten scholars as well as new readers of one of America’s most prominent and celebrated poets.
Download or read book Winds Across the Prairie written by Debra L. Hall and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2004-04-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the summer of 1868 and nothing is more important to Iris Stratton than her love of the prairie, nothing except Andrew Burgess. The previous summer, Andrew traveled from Boston to the spanning plains of Nebraska, packing dreams of becoming a rancher. His stay was brief however, leaving Iris to wonder if she would ever see him again. Then news came from back east. John and Andrew are pushing a massive herd of horses toward the swelling grasslands. Unbridled excitement fills the windy summer days. Iris secretly remains devoted to Andrew, despite the marriage arrangement her father unwittingly sealed at the time of her birth. One day, while preparing for her ‘coming of age’ party, Iris discovers a letter in the attic; a letter written by her long deceased mother. Perplexing questions begin to unfold. When her prim aunt is unwilling to provide the answers, Iris turns to her convalescing father whose only utterance is, “. . . Ivy on the wall. The winds that have blown across the prairie have carried away more than the scent of wildflowers. They have whisked away a startling secret that Iris is determined to reveal.

Or move ahead on a lonely road before her?Desolate cries of that isolated little girl inside pushed her forward and Samantha could only watch as her past slipped away, this time had to let it go.

Major Deke Hogan, a Civil War guerrilla fighter, heads the contingent. The proceeds of the attack are intended to support the Confederacy in a last ditch effort to regain the initiative. But destiny has played a mean trick when Hogan discovers that the surrender had been signed by General Lee three weeks previously. From being a legitimate fighting force, the Raiders have become nothing more than common outlaws. Their escape does not pass unchallenged. And further trouble erupts between surviving gang members as to how the loot should be distributed.

What happens when tempers flare and bullets fly could never have been foreseen by any of the participants.

Download or read book Bonfire Opera written by Danusha Laméris and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes the most compelling landscapes are the ones where worlds collide: where a desert meets the sea, a civilization, no-man’s land. Here in Bonfire Opera, grief and Eros grapple in the same domain. A bullet-hole through the heart, a house full of ripe persimmons, a ghost in a garden. Coyotes cry out on the hill, and lovers find themselves kissing, “bee-stung, drunk” in the middle of road. Here, the dust is holy, as is the dark, unknown. These are poems that praise the impossible, wild world, finding beauty in its wake. Excerpt from “Bonfire Opera” In those days, there was a woman in our circle who was known, not only for her beauty, but also for taking off all her clothes and singing opera. And sure enough, as the night wore on and the stars emerged to stare at their reflections on the sea, and everyone had drunk a little wine, she began to disrobe, loose her great bosom and the tender belly, pale in the moonlight, the Viking hips, and to let her torn raiment fall to the sand as we looked up from the flames.
