'Pill After Pill' is a collection of poetry written mostly during a 6 week stay in hospital after Jonathan was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder. The poems journey through the events of Jonathan's psychosis, from first seeking medical help to running away from hospital and attempting to jump from Waterloo Bridge to finally being discharged by his psychiatrist. His poetry allows the reader a glimpse inside his fragile mind during this time as he details his innermost thoughts and feelings. In his verse he captures the transition from being possessed by the voice in his head to feeling numbed by the medication he is put on. Through all of this Jonathan is desperate to gain peace of mind that by the end he is resolved to accept he will never find.

Poetry. Italian Studies. Translated from the Italian by Lucia Re and Paul Vangelisti. Although for much of her life controversial and underrated in her own country, Amelia Rosselli (1930-1996) is now acknowledged internationally as one of the most important European poets of the 20th century. "VARIAZIONI BELLICHE" [WAR VARIATIONS] is her groundbreaking 1964 collection, posthumously edited and to which poems were added in the definitive 2009 Mondadori "I Meridiani" edition. WAR VARIATIONS is a new edition of Lucia Re's and Paul Vangelisti's prize winning translation (Premio Flaiano & PEN USA translation awards, 2006), with entirely revised & corrected texts, as well as the additional poems from the definitive Italian edition. Amelia Rosselli's accomplishments as poet and linguistic innovator remain unique and unsurpassed in her own language and in post-War European literature. WAR VARIATIONS is an extremely moving fusion of the personal and public, within a singularly innovative poetic vision and diction.
Sacred poetry from twelve mystics and saints, rendered brilliantly by Daniel Ladinsky, beloved interpreter of verses by the fourteenth-century Persian poet Hafiz One of 6 Books Oprah Loves to Give as Gifts During the Holidays “All kinds of beautiful poetry.” –Hoda Kotb In this luminous collection, Daniel Ladinsky—best known for his bestselling interpretations of the great Sufi poet Hafiz—brings together the timeless work of twelve of the world’s finest spiritual writers, six from the East and six from the West.

Rumi’s joyous, ecstatic love poems; St. Francis’s loving observations of nature through the eyes of Catholicism; Kabir’s wild, freeing humor that synthesizes Hindu, Muslim, and Christian beliefs; St. Teresa’s sensual verse; and the mystical, healing words of Sufi poet Hafiz—these along with inspiring works by Rabia, Meister Eckhart, St. Thomas Aquinas, Mira, St. Catherine of Siena, St. Teresa of Avila, St. John of the Cross, and Tukaram are all “love poems by God” from writers considered “conduits of the divine.” Together, they form a spiritual treasure to cherish always.
2018 Goodreads Choice Awards - Best Poetry Book Finalist Filled with nostalgia, love, heartbreak, and the author's signature wry examinations of mental health, Neil Hilborn's second book helps explain what lives inside us, what we struggle to define. Written on the road over two years of touring, The Future is rugged, genuine, and relatable. Grabbing attention like gravity, Hilborn reminds readers that no matter how far away we get, we eventually all drift back together. These poems are fireworks for the numb. In the author's own words, The Future is a blue sky and a full tank of gas, and in it, we are alive.

The word "CRAZY" could apply to anyone of us, at certain times in our lives. We are complicated beings.
