The "memorable" (Stephanie Burt, Yale Review) and "impressive" (Chicago Tribune) debut from a remarkable new voice in poetry Almanac is a collection of lyrical and narrative poems that celebrate, and mourn the passing of, the world of the small family farm. But while the poems are all involved in some way with the rural Midwest, particularly with the people and land of the northwestern Illinois dairy farm where Austin Smith was born and raised, they are anything but merely regional. As the poems reflect on farm life, they open out to speak about childhood and death, the loss of tradition, the destruction of the natural world, and the severing of connections between people and the land. This collection also reflects on a long poetic apprenticeship. Smith's father is a poet himself, and Almanac is in part a meditation about the responsibility of the poet, especially the young poet, when it falls to him to speak for what is vanishing. To quote another Illinois poet, Thomas James, Smith has attempted in this book to write poems "clear as the glass of wine / on [his] father's table every Christmas Eve." By turns exhilarating and disquieting, this is a remarkable debut from a distinctive new voice in American poetry. From Almanac: THE MUMMY IN THE FREEPORT ART MUSEUM Austin Smith Amongst the masterpieces of the small-town Picassos and Van Goghs and photographs of the rural poor and busts of dead Greeks or the molds of busts donated by the Art Institute of Chicago to this dying town's little museum, there was a mummy, a real mummy, laid out in a dim-lit room by himself. I used to go to the museum just to visit him, a pharaoh who, expecting an afterlife of beautiful virgins and infinite food and all the riches and jewels he'd enjoyed in earthly life, must have wondered how the hell he'd ended up in Freeport, Illinois. And I used to go alone into that room and stand beside his sarcophagus and say, "My friend, I've asked myself the same thing."

While the poems in Steve Straight’'s new collection lead the reader "into the dark forest of memory / or onto the carnival ride of hypothesis, / or even right off the cliff of surprise," they maintain a sure course through the din and distraction of modern life. Bits of news from the natural sciences, chance encounters, and even convicted felon and crafting queen Martha Stewart all fall under Straight’s observant eye. The result is a collection of conversational poems that lend a sense of wonder to the commonplace.

New poetry from Vana Manasiadis . Manasiadis was born in Wellington, New Zealand, and she divides her time between Greece and New Zealand. She co-editor of the Seraph Press Poetry in Translation Series Helen Rickerby of Seraph Press says: Vana has invented her own forms and layouts for the poems on the page, which are nothing like anything I've ever seen before. There are several long sequences which have seemingly unrelated threads presented in parallel - sometimes on facing pages, and sometimes in the top and bottom halves of the same page. For example, in one sequence one thread is a narrative of the days after the death of the poet's mother, while the other thread is a series of ekphrastic poems about various artworks and texts. It may be hard at first for some readers to know quite how to read them together, but the effect I have found is that they show how interconnected and paralleled everything is; how we read everything through the lens of our experiences and griefs, and how healing art can be in our lives.

Recital written by John Siddique and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009 with Poetry categories.
John Siddique is a poet who wants you to read his work, his writing isn't a puzzle you have to figure out. Gathered in these pages is the work of an artist who believes in stories - our stories.From the domestic realities of everyday life to a world distraught with crises and confrontation Recital looks at our lives over the space of a year. Drawing on inspiration from Grave's 'White Goddess,' Siddique's book uses the lunar cycle to tap into the intimate relations of the modern soul; our doubts, hesitations and need for meaning.Glimpses of inspiration from Larkin, Cummings and Neruda inform the poetry here, but Siddique's own voice takes those ways of looking at the world and sets out stories of who we are right now in the 21st century.In a time when so many consider poetry to be of little relevance, here is a writer and a book that has never been more relevant to the questions of today and the people we are. Yet it is with a sensuous and loving eye that Siddique writes about secrets that we almost dare not think about. He reveals the quest for love and the spiritual meaning that underpins us.

Earth S Almanac written by Lucy Newlyn and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2015 with Bereavement categories.
The poems in Earth's Almanac emerged over a fifteen-year period following the untimely death of the poet's sister. Lucy Newlyn adapts the tradition of the "Shepherd's Calendar" to the phases of grief, condensing a long process of reflection and remembering into the passage of a single year. The poems shift through forms and move between places - Oxford, Borrowdale, and finally Cornwall, where the poet finds a second home near the sea. In these intense expressions of love and loss, anger and guilt, there is no smooth path towards consolation.
