Bøger af Paul Juhasz

An extraordinary poet turns his piercing lens to questions of fate, chance, desire, and toxic masculinity in this compelling collection of short fiction. Randomness and orchestration, coincidence and causality, hunger and emptiness thread their way through these varied stories of friendship, love/not/love, and wounded characters searching for what matters in the end. Paul Juhasz's As If Place Matters holds a stunning omniscience that surprises and delights. A powerful debut. -Rilla Askew, author of Kind of Kin

Woody Guthrie, songwriter, poet and Oklahoma folk hero, was a champion of the disenfranchised, of minorities, of the working class, and an advocate for justice, using his music to speak out against injustice in all its forms. His love and understanding for the common man, for the blue-collar backbone of America, is a consistent theme throughout his canon. The Woody Guthrie Poets is a group dedicated to memorializing in poetry the history and culture of working people and perpetuating the ideals and goals of equality for the working class. They hope to raise world consciousness of the labor and political movements and to give commentary on the social and political environment in the 21st Century, as Woody Guthrie might see it. This is their 2023 anthology.

Ronin is a startling collection of text; easy, authentic, often funny and a little profane, yet rich in metaphor, innovation and feeling. Following on the heels of his successful working-stiff memoir Fulfillment; Diary of a Warehouse Picker, Juhasz delivers again, this time in stealth-poet mode. "Prose poetry is said to be "a small, justified block of writing wherein weird shit happens." In this collection, Paul Juhasz has taken this concept to heart." -- Timothy Bradford, author of Nomads with Samsonite and co-director of the Mark Allen Everett Poetry Series at the University of Oklahoma
