Paperback. Condizione: New. An examination of obsession, gender, love, and loss in contemporary rural America. In Country Songs for Alice, a nonbinary, queer narrator passes through the crucible of love, romance, and heartbreak against the backdrop of rural America-a landscape which offers luminous belonging, even as the hazards… of homophobia, loneliness, and isolation loom large. Part roadtrip, part mixtape, these poems are explorations of love, music, romance, pageantry, loneliness, and belonging in the rural places and small towns that seem to preclude queer culture. Country Songs for Alice not only tells the story of a relationship and its dissolution but reclaims country western imagery and aesthetics for a queer audience, dousing the narrator's experience in the language of cowboys, horses, rodeos, trucks, and desert skies.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A lyric essay about young love and loss and the aftermath of a former lover's suicide.Landsickness explores the inelegant progress of grief and pursues a relentless search for evidence of the beloved's presence through the physics of splashes, the history of seasickness, and the science of depression.… While full of tenderness, the poems employ humor and honesty to observe the ugliness of grief and the failure of elegy to restore the dead. From the funeral to the office of her dead-end job to navigating the streets of New York, the speaker experiences a series of false starts as she learns to cope with her new life. Still, there is a real sense of progression in the collection's end, even as the speaker continues to ask herself: "Why am I obsessed with the physics of his fall?".

Paperback. Condizione: New. Through the weaving of documentary poetics, first-hand accounts, dialogue, and lyric, these poems tell the story of co-running a school at the Ocethi Sakowin Camp at Standing Rock. Something Small of How to See a River interrogates the idea of narrative. Who gets to tell a story and what does it mean…when the official story, the story told by the governor, the police, or the local media, is a fundamentally dishonest one? The poems collected here meditate on failure: how systems fail us and our environment, how whiteness fails to hold itself accountable, how future generations and the land are being failed-and how, in the face of all this, the Standing Rock movement was not a failure. At the heart of this collection is the strength, care, and radical joy of the movement, which shines through and against the violence.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A record of a poet's wrestling with how to live and what to do; a provisional manual exploring how to be a better teacher, father, husband, poet, sibling, friend, and son. Written over a fifteen-year period, a period in which events and politics seemed to defy reason, the poems collected in Tips to H…elp You Do Your Best seek an imaginative wisdom on the outskirts of conventional thinking. By writing obsessively about the landscape, the objects that litter it, and the people he finds loitering there, Mike Carlson arrives at the emotional truth of his experience, mapping the distance between irreverence and irony, cowardice, and courage, condolences and pure clear words. In doing so, he also lays out a theory of poetry, a philosophical, aesthetic, and spiritual treatise that values object matter over subject matter. These poems approach understanding by image and rhythm, by light and shadow, and by means of encountering motorcycles and mushrooms and silos. While these poems often assume the authoritative and axiomatic tone of a guide book or set of instructions, they are at odds with easy explanation and drudgery.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Mycocosmic offers intricately woven incantations-prayers, hexes, and charms-all of which call for a transformation of language, grief, and the self. "Good things come to you through fire," a Tarot reader told Lesley Wheeler as she was composing what became her sixth poetry collection, Mycocosmic. But…how could that be true, while the planet was burning and life slamming her with one loss after another? Then she learned about pyrophilic fungi that lurk in soil until activated by fire. Enter mycelia and a teeming underground world that metabolizes death, changing what remains so that life can begin anew.Mycocosmic offers intricately woven spell poems-prayers, hexes, charms, and invocations-that call for transformation. A parent's death gives Wheeler the freedom to reveal difficult truths about family violence and her sexuality; a midlife mental health crisis transforms her sense of self. Incantatory language channeled through a wide variety of forms-including free verse, litany, sonnets, the bref double, the golden shovel, and the villanelle-empowers these shifts. Beneath these poems runs a book-length essay in verse, "Underpoem [Fire Fungus]," sending tendrils across the footer of each page. This poetic mycelium nourishes metamorphosis and highlights its urgency. As Merlyn Sheldrake writes in Entangled Life, "Mycelium describes the most common of fungal habits, better thought of not as a thing but as a process: an exploratory, irregular tendency." Poetry is rooted in real and imagined communities and conversations. Mycocosmic demonstrates how interdependence binds us together.

Paperback. Condizione: New. The conclusion of G. C. Waldrep's trilogy exploring chronic illness. In The Opening Ritual, G. C. Waldrep contends with the failure of the body, the irreducible body, in the light of faith. What can or should "healing" mean when it can't ever mean "wholeness" again? And what kind of architecture is "m…ercy" when we live inside damage? These are poems that take both the material and the spiritual seriously, that cast their unsparing glances toward "All that is not / and could never be a parable." The collection concludes with a sequence of truly grand meditations on spiritual consciousness-in one the poet notes how, in the stillness of contemplation, the world begins to hum and resound with music. The Opening Ritual attends to and fashions its song from that music.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Poems exploring the push and pull of migration and immigration, familial archive, and regional history. Through one state to another, from one country to the next Indifferent Cities traverses both distance and time to reconcile the most confounding reality of family: our people, sometimes, are the peo…ple we know least. Utilizing forms such as ekphrasis and epistolary, the collection sources photographs, postcards, and official documents as well as rumor, suspicion, and supposition to uncover the consequences, by choice or circumstance, of migration and immigration between Mexico and the United States across four generations. Surveying the terrain of what one knows and does not know, what one inherits and disinherits, Indifferent Cities wrestles with every departure, each arrival, and the author's inevitable return to determine where and to who he belongs.

Paperback. Condizione: New. In her third full-length collection of poems, Jennifer Militello weaves fragmentary letters addressing illness and struggle through ventriloquisms of mythological heroes and dead composers, ancient goddesses and murdered girls. Stylized "dictionaries" open into lay-ered definitions meant like magical…clothing or tutelary amulets to provide shelter from a world that cannot be controlled. As the poet stitches together a plethoric identity to ex-plore disguises, A Camouflage of Specimens and Garments casts a smokescreen of selves.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A powerful collection that includes the viral hit poem "Good Bones" -- Public Radio International's Official Poem of 2016!Good Bones is a collection of modern poetry that speaks to the world we live in. Maggie Smith contemplates the past and our future, life and death, childhood and motherhood. She wr…ites out of the experience of motherhood, inspired by watching her own children read the world like a book they've just opened, knowing nothing of the characters or plot. Smith takes in the dark world around her with a critical eye, always searching for the hidden goodness: compassion, empathy, honesty. "There is a light," she tells us, "and the light is good." Smith skillfully reveals the layers of the world around us through lyric language and vivid imagery: "For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. / For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, / sunk in a lake." These poems stare down darkness while cultivating and sustaining possibility and addressing a larger world. We come away from this collection hopeful about making the world a better place, a place to share with future generations. As Smith tells us in Good Bones, "This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.".

Paperback. Condizione: New. Cyborg Fever addresses timely questions about AI, technology, and their role in shaping relationships. In Cyborg Fever, acclaimed writer Laurie Sheck brings us a probing and lyrical philosophical fiction in the spirit of Umberto Eco, Italo Calvino, and Donna Haraway's Cyborg Manifesto that enacts an i…ncisive and moving exploration into what it means to be human in the age of AI and increasing transhumanism. Throughout Cyborg Fever, many strange, surprising facts appear: an artist clones a flower from his DNA and the DNA of a petunia, an astronaut plays golf on the moon, a mathematician on a rest cure rethinks the life of Shakespeare, and particles and antiparticles collide at lightning speed beneath the green hills of Switzerland and France. Threaded throughout, one question lingers: in this age of AI and genetic engineering, how can we come to know more fully what it means to love and be human among the wonders and destructions we have wrought on Earth? At the center of the book is the narrator, Erwin, left as an hours-old infant on the steps of an orphanage where he is named after the renowned physicist Erwin Schrodinger (of the famous Schrodinger's cat experiment). After a traumatic fall into a year-long fever dream, he experiences many visions that take him into many areas of inquiry including the nature of the universe, bioengineering, medical experimentation, cyborgs, AI, and space and time, and ultimately teaches him the nature of love. Along the way, he develops a friendship with a gentle cyborg who has escaped from a Lab involved in covert medical intervention. Guided by the cyborg and a vision of Funes (of Borges's iconic story "Funes the Memorious"), Erwin experiences the Information Age and the promises of AI in all its beauty and, ultimately, its terror, as he watches the cyborg he has come to love devolve into an unfeeling information machine. Throughout, issues of personhood, human attachment, and the dignity of all living beings pervade Erwin's thinking and leave him with a larger understanding and appreciation of what it means to love.

Paperback. Condizione: New. One could certainly say that Kelly Weber's debut collection, We Are Changed to Deer at the Broken Place, depicts a non-binary experience that does not receive nearly enough representation in the literary landscape. While such an assertion would be factual, this kind of reading would underestimate Webe…r's poetic gifts and the full range of the philosophical implications for her work. Weber writes, "What pulls a woman like me / out here alone, they want to know?" As she teases out possible answers to this question, Weber reveals-with remarkable lyricism and grace-the danger, richness, and multiplicity housed within solitary experience and within the individual subject. Adriana Cavererro, the famed scholar of vocal expression, once noted that thought itself is a collective endeavor, made possible by a shared cultural imagination. Weber reveals self as world, self as community in poems that situate an inherited tradition in conversation with postmodern innovation and undertheorized, urgently important concepts of identity. This is an unforgettable first book.

Through love poems inspired by such disparate spaces as a British art museum and the reptile house of a local zoo, poems comparing a romantic affair to the religious cult at Jonestow…n and a mother's role to a Congolese power figure bristling with nails, The Pact offers an indictment against affection and a portent against zeal. This book places pleasure alongside pain, even as it delivers Militello's trademark talent for innovation and ritualization of the strange.

A collection of poems that blesses the reader with a spirit of hope, solace, and inspiration in their own seasons of adversity.The Beautiful Immunity asks how we create good in an imperfect world of fallible souls. Spare and formally daring, these poems were refined through the catastrophes of wildfir…es, recession, and a major public health crisis through the hope of a beautiful immunity-an everlasting salve for the lost. This slender volume reads as the culmination of more than a decade's worth of labor, documenting large-scale social, cultural, and political upheavals, as well as the moment when the word "anthropause" floated indelibly into the world's vocabulary.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Continuing the work begun in 2014's Poverty Creek Journal, the lyric essays in Thomas Gardner's Sundays focus on moments in our ordinary lives when something within us breaks and we are cast out to wander and sing, "feeling [our] way toward something [in the invisible] that will press back." "Deep wit…hin us is a river, under it all, where everything comes undone," Gardner writes, and over a year's-worth of Sundays, in an improvisatory prose that "holds its breath at its [own] undoing," he takes us there, urging us each to find that same space opening within. Twenty turkeys in the backyard, a walk with friends from overseas to a plunging waterfall, moments in the dark when flashes across the eye become a boat in rising wind tugging against its mooring-these lyric pieces, much like the sentences from Marilynne Robinson's novel Housekeeping Gardner discovers one morning pasted on the doors and windows and staircases of the building he works in, offer us pieces of the ordinary set apart, "tiny squares of print, unfixed from narrative," so carefully tied together under the surface that the everyday world, like Gardner's building, seems everywhere "ringed and veined with thought.".
