Book excerpt: “Kooser . . . must be the most accessible and enjoyable major poet in America. His lines are so clear and simple.” —Michael Dirda, The Washington Post “Nothing escapes him; everything is illuminated.” —Library Journal “Will one day rank alongside of Edgar Lee Masters, Robert Frost, and William Carlos Williams.” —Minneapolis Tribune “Kooser’s ability to discover the smallest detail and render it remarkable is a rare gift.” —The Bloomsbury Review Four decades of poetry—and a generous selection of new work—make up this extraordinary collection by Pulitzer Prize winner Ted Kooser. Firmly rooted in the landscapes of the Midwest, Kooser’s poetry succeeds in finding the emotional resonances within the ordinary. Kooser’s language of quiet intensity trains itself on the intricacies of human relationships, as well as the animals and objects that make up our days. As Poetry magazine said of his work, “Kooser documents the dignities, habits, and small griefs of daily life, our hunger for connection, our struggle to find balance.” From “March 2”: Patchy clouds and windy. All morning our house has been flashing in and out of shade like a signal, and far across the waves of grass a neighbor’s house has answered, offering help. Ted Kooser is the author of eleven collections of poetry, including Delights & Shadows, which won the Pulitzer Prize. He served as the Poet Laureate of the United States, and is a visiting professor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Download or read book W KINDEST REGARDS written by Charles Lang Freer and published by Smithsonian Books (DC). This book was released on 1995-04-17 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "With Kindest Regards records the extraordinary friendship between the American expatriate artist James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903) and his most significant patron, Charles Lang Freer (1854-1919). By the time the industrialist from Detroit met the artist in 1890, Whistler was as notorious for his irascibility as he was famous for his artistic productions. Freer, however, would always maintain that he had never met a truer, nobler man. Their correspondence reveals a warmth and generosity in Whistler that has gone largely unobserved." "The eighty-nine letters, telegrams, cablegrams, and calling cards chronicle the growth of Freer's Whistler collection, the largest and most important in the world. Linda Merrill sets the correspondence in context and traces the contacts between the two men during their long acquaintance. She observes how the previously unpublished letters cast new light on Freer's aesthetic education and expand the history of Whistler's later years. Even Freer's outstanding collection of Asian art began with the keen interest in Japanese art he shared with Whistler." "Illustrated with works from the Freer collection and vintage photographs from the Freer Gallery Archives, With Kindest Regards makes important original documents accessible for the first time, augments the legends of Whistler's personality, and reveals the foundation of Charles Freer's legacy to the United States."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Red Stilts written by Ted Kooser and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2020-09-08 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Red Stilts finds Pulitzer Prize-winner and former U. S. Poet Laureate Ted Kooser at the top of his imaginative and storytelling powers. Here are the richly metaphorical, imagistically masterful, clear and accessible poems for which he has become widely known. Kooser writes for an audience of everyday readers and believes poets “need to write poetry that doesn’t make people feel stupid.” Each poem in Red Stilts strives to reveal the complex beauties of the ordinary, of the world that’s right under our noses. Right under Kooser’s nose is rural America, most specifically the Great Plains, with its isolated villages, struggling economy, hard-working people and multiple beauties that surpass everything wrecked, wrong, or in error.

Download or read book Best Regards Freddie written by Victor Breedon and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2014-07-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first twenty years of the twentieth century, 1900-1920. In no other twenty years has the world changed so radically, commencing in perhaps the very best of times, and proceeding through to certainly, and suddenly, the very worst. The story of those years can be told in different ways. Freddie Breedon and his modestly middle class British family and friends who would live, travel, and work, and also fight and support during those two decades, have allow us, with their regular correspondence, a unique way. During those twenty years some 200 postcards would pass between them, to be collected by Freddie. Two hundred short episodes, two hundred snapshots or sketches, with a bit of description, from here and there and all over, and from different authors, when blended together can give us a single picture of this time like no other. To enhance our picture and add colour and depth, a second form of authentic reportage is used in our story. Beverley Moysey was a Canadian soldier who fought in the trenches of the western front in the Great War. He kept a diary of vivid and explicit entries of his months there. It is presented here in its entirety It will show a very different picture to that seen by Freddie and family.
