Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Thunderbird Inn chronicles the drug-addled misadventures of a man and his friend, Richard, on a transcontinental bender that bottoms out in the Florida panhandle. Fueled by cheap booze and various powders, the duo loiters on the fringes of a decaying America. The poems in the collection are often casket-shaped, not unlike shoebox time capsules. Intimate spaces to die inside.Or live. Or snort horse tranquilizer.Which the narrator and Richard do often in neon lit parking lots.Do they commit a few small crimes? Sure. But there is a loving tenderness to their dysfunctional codependence. The collection itself is shaped by addiction and routine. This is less a tale of recovery and more of a doom spiral.Like a seedy motel, Thunderbird Inn is inhabited by outcasts and weirdos.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Stuart is raised on a nature reserve in Cumbria; his family is poor. Stuart is sensitive - endlessly bullied in school, he believes in magic and feels more comfortable taking dance class than playing football. Stuart grows up straddling two worlds, becoming the first in his family to go to university. His father, an ex-con, is quick to throw a punch, and won't eat anything in public 'more flamboyant than a ploughman's' in case someone would take him for a 'nancy-boy'. An avid birdwatcher, he has found peace in his new life as a caretaker for a nature reserve.When his father is diagnosed with terminal cancer, Stuart grapples with grief as he tries to become the man he thinks his father would want him to be. Interwoven in the narrative are snippets of British wildlife, particularly the birds that captivate Stuart and his father, and reflect the bond they share.The writing is surprising, hilarious, and devastating. This is a story about grief, about masculinity, about the love of a parent and what remains when they're gone.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. JENNIFER LOYD'S DEBUT COLLECTION, GHOST IN THE ARCHIVE, is a beautiful exploration of past and possibility through the life of Rachel Carson and a contemporary speaker who seeks her own truths. The paralleled journeys of the two women toward selfhood and knowing and love push back against worlds that want to define themselves. In dexterous poems that are narrative, lyrical, and as fragmented as our access to history, readers "eat the ashes of the archive," as we hope that in their ingestion we'll find certainty. But Ghost in the Archive reminds us that truth is an act of slow accumulation as "Remember, Body" snakes its way through the collection-only coming into its full view, like a ghostly spine, in the final pages. This researched, introspective, and brave collection will leave you wanting to dip back into the poems, like the oceans Carson loved, again and again.--Chet'la Sebree These are taut, hungry poems. And they're formally dazzling punctuation disappears before your eyes, silences are recorded with magnitude and direction. Ghost in the Archive is a collection about Rachel Carson and history and queerness and nature and death and yearning so hard it buckles.--Kaveh Akbar Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
