178,95 kr. "'Blessed be sin if it teaches men shame,' wrote Georges Benanos. Sinnerman continues Michael Waters' exploration of transgression as a mode of worship in poems that 'delight in wit and wordplay' (The Gettysburg Review) and display 'raucous devotion' while assuming 'a divine erotic presence even in his most harrowing poems' (The Georgia Review)"

178,95 kr. "Set in New York City, circa now, Viscera chronicles the pursuit of love and unassailable truth in a world designed to deny one's humanity. Our poet protagonist interrogates the cultural belief systems that bind and ultimately finds freedom in relentless self-definition. Inspired by pop culture patron saints and crime procedurals, Viscera investigates how to transfigure a fractured soul into a fully realized mosaic. From intimate whisper to wry conversation to Whitmanesque prophecy, Felice Belle's voice speaks to, and for, and somehow from us-as we are now-"never...more separate" and "never...more connected." These poems inhabit a frontier beyond free verse, yet thrum with an orality older than the alphabet. Viscera pays homage to the heart and cuts to the bone. It celebrates the multitudes within and the exquisite inherent risk in composing a life"--

228,95 kr. "Lennon's remembrances in this collection are linked by his attempt to understand his relationship with his putative parent, Norman Mailer, a need intensified by his decades-long confusion about his relationship to his actual father. The literary essays and reviews that take up the middle of this collection are about people, writers for the most part, whose work Mailer admired, or were his literary colleagues and/or rivals"--

328,95 kr. Abuse, incarceration, addiction, neglect, drug abuse. Every year, for these reasons and numerous others, hundreds of thousands of children enter the American foster care system. Surrendered by their birth families to the care of a vast and sometimes ill-equipped state system, these children embark on a journey that is often fraught with heartbreak, struggle, and dangers of its own--and that may or may not ever lead them home. In 1997, Jacari Harris became one of these children. Fate landed him in the home of a loving and supportive foster mother who ultimately adopted him. Even so, it would take many more years for Jacari to understand that he was more than a statistic. Battling feelings of insignificance and abandonment that commonly plague adopted children--and the behavioral challenges these feelings often cause--Jacari could have let his affliction determine his destiny. Instead, through hard work, determination, and a growing relationship with God, he found his identity and began realizing his dreams. Lost & Found shows how it's possible to overcome a rough beginning in life and endure a tough journey to find success and become an inspiration to others.

178,95 kr. "Searching for a singular voice in one owns mind must be incredibly boring, or exhausting. But, by paying attention, author Angelique Palmer finds music in the many committee presiding over her thought life: there's a fantastic loop of wonderful jazz piano listing in the hum of one, an intelligent gibberish in the brilliant scat of another, the screaming brass of a blaring trumpet in a third, a simultaneous strand plays foot candle to cradle the shadows it casts and still another culls a timbre of comedy only survivors understand to be Also Dark. And that's only scratching the surface"--

188,95 kr. Bruce Bond's trilogy of sonnet sequences explores trauma and self-alienation and the power of imaginative life to heal--to reawaken with the past; to better understand its influence, both conscious and unconscious; to gain some measure of clarity, empathy, and freedom as we read the world around us.

198,95 kr. "Spring Ulmer takes, as a starting point for this essay collection, Theodor Adorno's accusation that a life "purely as a fact will strangle other life." As she throws herself this way and that in her search for love and meaning, Ulmer refuses to shirk her own complicity in the terror and suffering of the present era. Here is a book that interrogates its own form. How, Ulmer asks, does one render the real, and what is the relationship between art and activism? On an odyssey to become a mother, she doggedly surveys what it means not only to create, but also to mother in this day and age. In this self-portrait as seen through disparate encounters, Ulmer talks with respective neighbors-a hunter in the Vermont woods, a Rwandan ex-soldier online, an immigrant in a subway car, cadets at a military school, a stranger at an airport-and invites us along as she works as farmhand, secretary, and professor. Waylaid by tragedy, Ulmer questions how we might move beyond Adornoian guilt into another ethical paradigm-one that cultivates emotional intelligence. The impulse to see and what it means to lay claim to anyone or anything is troubled water-marred by the stirring up of social memory and the brutal human imprint on the natural world, yet Ulmer learns, after the death of her father, that a returned gaze portends the joining of souls she has just eschewed. A life, Ulmer intimates, can also honor other life. Such is Ulmer's labor"--
