Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What a delight it is to read these astute essays by poets one admires about poets one has treasured for years! The critical intelligence and lively writing on every page should appeal to a wide audience. Students of the Early Modern Lyric will find much to refresh their understanding; the general reader will be seduced -- and rewarded."—Chana Bloch, author of Mrs. Dumpty and co-translator of The Song of Songs "This is a splendid collection, shrewdly conceived and brilliantly executed, which should be read by anyone who loves poetry. As some of our most accomplished contemporary poets ruminate on the poetry of the seventeenth century, they also illuminate the practices and possibilities of twenty-first century poetry."—Michael Schoenfeldt, author of Bodies and Selves in Early Modern England "All poetry in English reaches back one way or another for its pith and sweetness to the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. There is always, in every true poem, some seed or element of that period, honey of lute song or devotional bite. I think that goes for Frank O'Hara and Allen Ginsberg, for Elizabeth Bishop and Gwendolyn Brooks and Robert Lowell, for Wallace Stevens and William Carlos Williams and Marianne Moore, for Mark Strand and Frank Bidart and Louise Glück, for C. D. Wright and Michael Palmer, and for the young poets in college and high school. You can hear it and feel it, through infinite variations--and that is why this book is a great idea."—Robert Pinsky, former Poet Laureate of the United States "I am delighted by Jonathan Post's collection. There is no other collection or anthology of this sort, or even remotely similar, available to students of poetry of the past, or to readers of contemporary poets. Green Thoughts, Green Shades is the liveliest collection of criticism I have read in a long time."—Richard Howard, author of Trappings: New Poems
Download or read book A Hundred Lovers written by Richie Hofmann and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An erotic journal in poems, from a rising star in the American poetry scene, author of the highly acclaimed collection Second Empire. “A book of love poems that consciously and subversively hearken back to Shakespeare’s sonnets, marking Hofmann’s position as one of our necessary poets of erotic desire.” —Jericho Brown, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Tradition A Hundred Lovers is a catalog of encounters, sublime, steamy, and frank. Inspired by French autofiction, the poems feel both sharp and diaristic; their lyrical, intimate world brings us everyday scenes imbued with sex. "Eros enters, where shame had lived," the speaker observes, as the poems explore risk and appetite, promiscuity and violence, and, in the wake of his marriage, questions about monogamy and desire. Bringing us both the carefully knotted silk ties of the wedding pair and their undress in a series of Hockney-like interiors where passion colors every object, Hofmann speaks plainly of the saliva, tears, and guts of the carnal, just as he does of the sublime in works of art. A Hundred Lovers invites us to consider our own memories of pleasure and pain, which fill the generous white space the poet leaves open to us between his ravishing lines.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love Conquers All! Kali Mathias knew that, being cursed with a beauty like hers, it was less likely for a man’s eye to want a second glimpse of her. That is, not until the day her eye rested upon Mr. Glen Monroe—the one man who would not easily be had. A woman needed an exclusive invitation to taste the passion that awaited them inside Glen’s empire. It was a colorful world of green where a taste of love portrayed revenge, deceit, and lust and where a beautiful woman could partake of such pleasures. Glen and Kali were both undergoing a broken heart at the hands of a twisted shade of green when they first met. Glen got Kali, and Kali got Glen. Kali thought she would never be acceptable. She was not slim enough, not tall enough, or pretty enough to please a man. On the other hand, Glen knew he was more than enough; he was handsome and breathtaking at the same time. He was more than enough for any woman to behold. Regardless of that discord, they both confusingly questioned their faith in God and opted for a doltish lifestyle. Hers based on a lustful appetite; his based on revenge. Glen’s faith was almost null to the point where he believed that all he had was enough to get him through life. And Kali, on the other hand, had the notion God just wasn’t working fast enough—not quicker than her cash. Glen and Kali were two lost people trying to survive in a world minus a heavenly net—God! They lost their way, but God never forgot them. He defeated the hands of Satan by refuting a pair of wrongful eyes from an unjust sight of Kali in the arms of another man. God embodied Kali with a heart of compassion to forgive Glen, flaws and all. Instead, God turned one date between two total opposite hearts into one that required each other to be alive in the midst of any storm. Also, God taught both Glen and Kali a lesson. He taught her to realize that not everything had a price tag, not real love! And he taught him that even love can conquer the grips of a heart’s revenge!
