This collection invites you, the reader, into an ongoing conversation – one that, at times, skims the surface of experience, and at others, dives deeper. Just as a conversation drifts from one idea to another, so this subject matter flows from light and playful to heart-wrenchingly tragic and true.
"We can say that Jeff Daniel Marion is a great Appalachian poet, but only in the sense that we can call Wordsworth a great poet of the Lake District or describe Dickinson and Frost as great New England poets. Like them, he writes about the specific landscape and people he loves and knows best, but also like them, he writes for all. This splendid compendium of appreciations and analyses is an essential companion to a body of work that speaks to readers both in and far beyond the southern highlands." -- Provided by publisher.
Poetry. TREE LANGUAGE is told in shard- like poems of supreme richness and finely balanced darkness variously shaped, whittled to a point, almost sharp enough to draw blood. And although this is a book spiked with brambles and skeletal branches, shot through with frost and fossilled with plant-bones, blood is the slick thread that sews together its themes and landscapes: war and personal tragedy, daffodils and poppies, Jerusalem, Scotland, colour and desolation."
A meditation book for women seeking to raise to their self-esteem & connect more fully with themselves.
"More than any other canonical English writer, Geoffrey Chaucer lived and worked at the centre of political life--yet his poems are anything but conventional. Edgy, complicated, and often dark, they reflect a conflicted world, and their astonishing diversity and innovative language earned Chaucer renown as the father of English literature. Marion Turner, however, reveals him as a great European writer and thinker. To understand his accomplishment, she reconstructs in unprecedented detail the cosmopolitan world of Chaucer's adventurous life, focusing on the places and spaces that fired his imagination. Uncovering important new information about Chaucer's travels, private life, and the early circulation of his writings, this innovative biography documents a series of vivid episodes, moving from the commercial wharves of London to the frescoed chapels of Florence and the kingdom of Navarre, where Christians, Muslims, and Jews lived side by side. The narrative recounts Chaucer's experiences as a prisoner of war in France, as a father visiting his daughter's nunnery, as a member of a chaotic Parliament, and as a diplomat in Milan, where he encountered the writings of Dante and Boccaccio. At the same time, the book offers a comprehensive exploration of Chaucer's writings, taking the reader to the Troy of Troilus and Criseyde, the gardens of the dream visions, and the peripheries and thresholds of The Canterbury Tales. By exploring the places Chaucer visited, the buildings he inhabited, the books he read, and the art and objects he saw, this landmark biography tells the extraordinary story of how a wine merchant's son became the poet of The Canterbury Tales." -- Publisher's description.
A literary cookbook that celebrates food and poetry, two of life's essential ingredients. In the same way that salt seasons ingredients to bring out their flavors, poetry seasons our lives; when celebrated together, our everyday moments and meals are richer and more meaningful. The twenty-five inspiring poems in this book—from such poets as Marge Piercy, Louise Glück, Mark Strand, Mary Oliver, Billy Collins, Jane Hirshfield—are accompanied by seventy-five recipes that bring the richness of words to life in our kitchen, on our plate, and through our palate. Eat This Poem opens us up to fresh ways of accessing poetry and lends new meaning to the foods we cook.
Marion McCready's highly-anticipated second book, Madame Ecosse, is a very Scottish collection. Political and personal by turns, it brims with evocative poems exploring history, myth, nature, and the female experience across the centuries. Rarely has writing been so lyrical, and yet so startling - expressing the passionate, sometimes brutal, extremes of love's sorrow and beautiful strangeness. Brimming over with poems that are fierce and tender, subtle and strong, sensuous and sensual, celebratory and mournful, this collection delights, moves and inspires. In work that is both experimental and true to tradition, McCready draws on nature, myth and history to explore the lives of women as leaders, lovers and mothers down through the ages to the present day.
