The poetry of Dylan Thomas has long been heralded as amongst the greatest of the Modern period, and along with his play, Under Milk Wood, his books are amongst the best-loved works in the literary canon. This new selection of his poetry contains all of his best-loved verse - including 'I See the Boys of Summer', 'And Death Shall Have No Dominion', 'The Hand that Signed the Paper' and, of course, 'Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night' - as well as some of his lesser-known lyrical pieces, and aims to show the great poet in a new light. '[Then] the greatest living poet in the English language.' (Observer) 'He is unique, for he distils an exquisite mysterious moving quality which defies analysis.' (Sunday Times)

Christopher Hitchens was the most eloquent of the New Atheists. With great rhetorical polish and an encyclopedic mind for historical facts and literary quotations, he presents the case of anti-theism very effectively. Though now deceased, Hitchens’ arguments continue to reverberate through his best-selling books and online presence. God, asserts Hitchens, would be, if he existed, the greatest of dictators. Religion, according to Hitchens, is morally bankrupt and madly irrational. The world is better off without them! But is this true? It is the purpose of this book to identify Hitchens’ worldview in order to subject it to a critique that will powerfully expose its many flaws. Rather than a dictator, God will be shown to be a God of love. Christianity too will be revealed as a faith that ought to resist tyranny, provides the best foundation for intrinsic human value, and is a rational belief-system. In so doing, this book appeals to all who have been influenced or convinced by Hitchens’ arguments to reconsider their position and refuse to rage against the light.

Rage Against The LightPlace: Sydney CBD. Or a city anywhere. Time: Mostly daytime yet feels like night.Era: Early 21st century. Mood: Dark but hopeful.Light: Dramatic. Sydney is a city in the midst of a development boom. Skyscrapers. Cranes. Man-made environment. Concrete. Few trees. Mirrored surfaces. Windows magnifying light. Consumer advertising expressing people's desires. Impersonal at heart.There are signs of life amid the cold abstractions of architecture. People scurry about being literally exposed by light. They are struck by shafts between buildings like insects coming out for food. Solitary male figures appear as different identities. A man in a suit, dragging on a cigarette is lost in thought.Street photography is a genre with a long history (Garry Winogrand, Daido Moriyama, Trent Parke). The CBD is a favorite haunt. Some photographers seek out people or emphasize a sense of isolation in the crowd. Others evoke a haunting mood empty of human presence. Markus Andersen does both, loving the tradition of black and white (high contrast), square format and abstraction. With very deliberate cropping and enterprising juxtapositions he reveals his skill for graphic design. He aligns the elements of people and place to make a wryly humourous visual haiku. The Leunig of photography.Markus Andersen's photographs describe an experience familiar to us. It is exciting and full of promise to go to the CBD and yet it can leave us feeling empty. We go home only temporarily satiated. This essay is rich with worldly wisdom. There is satisfaction in the vision shared. It celebrates the humanity of the self and its endless creative ability to interpret. This is the role of the artist. It casts light on our experience by speaking from the heart. Markus Anderson sheds light on our love of life and our love of light.

The most complete and current edition of Dylan Thomas' collected poetry in a beautiful gift edition celebrating the centenary of his birth The reputation of Dylan Thomas (1914-1953) as one of the greatest poets of the twentieth century has not waned in the fifty years since his death. A Welshman with a passion for the English language, Thomas’s singular poetic voice has been admired and imitated, but never matched. This exciting, newly edited annotated edition offers a more complete and representative collection of Dylan Thomas’s poetic works than any previous edition. Edited by leading Dylan Thomas scholar John Goodby from the University of Swansea, The Poems of Dylan Thomas contains all the poems that appeared in Collected Poems 1934-1952, edited by Dylan Thomas himself, as well as poems from the 1930-1934 notebooks and poems from letters, amatory verses, occasional poems, the verse film script for “Our Country,” and poems that appear in his “radio play for voices,” Under Milk Wood. Showing the broad range of Dylan Thomas’s oeuvre as never before, this new edition places Thomas in the twenty-first century, with an up-to-date introduction by Goodby whose notes and annotations take a pluralistic approach.

The Complete Collected Poetry works of Robbie Moffat 1974-2017. Six hundred and ninety pages of poetry, more than one thousand individual poems, twenty pages of notes. The poet is a famous film-maker who has directed twenty five feature films. His poetry contains a beauty and a flair for storytelling that puts the man behind the camera in the spotlight. There are no actors to hide behind or to mask his real state of mind. In his poetry he is himself, a man struggling to understand life, to cope with romance, and rejection - a man trying to make sense of everything that life throws at him. But make no mistake, he is no ordinary man, he has an exceptional insight into others. He has traveled the world and put what he has seen and experienced into a collection of poetry that is unique. There is no doubt that he is Scotland's greatest poet of the late 20th and early 21st century.

The long-awaited, full-force autobiography of American punk music hero, Bob Mould. Bob Mould stormed into America's punk rock scene in 1979, when clubs across the country were filling with kids dressed in black leather and torn denim, packing in to see bands like the Ramones, Black Flag, and the Dead Kennedys. Hardcore punk was a riot of jackhammer rhythms, blistering tempos, and bottomless aggression. And at its center, a new band out of Minnesota called Hvosker Dvo was bashing out songs and touring the country on no money, driven by the inspiration of guitarist and vocalist Bob Mould. Their music roused a generation. From the start, Mould wanted to make Hüsker Dü the greatest band in the world - faster and louder than the hardcore standard, but with melody and emotional depth. In See a Little Light, Mould finally tells the story of how the anger and passion of the early hardcore scene blended with his own formidable musicianship and irrepressible drive to produce some of the most important and influential music of the late 20th century. For the first time, Mould tells his dramatic story, opening up to describe life inside that furnace and beyond. Revealing the struggles with his own homosexuality, the complexities of his intimate relationships, as well as his own drug and alcohol addiction, Mould takes us on a whirlwind ride through achieving sobriety, his acclaimed solo career, creating the hit band Sugar, a surprising detour into the world of pro wrestling, and most of all, finally finding his place in the world. A classic story of individualism and persistence, Mould's autobiography is an open account of the rich history of one of the most revered figures of punk, whose driving force altered the shape of American music.

"Thanatopsis" is a renowned poem written by William Cullen Bryant, an American poet and editor of the 19th century. First published in 1817 when Bryant was just 17 years old, the poem is considered one of the early masterpieces of American literature. In "Thanatopsis," Bryant explores themes related to death and nature, contemplating the idea of mortality and the interconnectedness of life and death. The title, derived from the Greek words "thanatos" (death) and "opsis" (view), suggests a meditation on the contemplation of death. The poem begins with an invocation to nature, portraying it as a grand and eternal force. Bryant expresses the idea that death is a natural part of the cycle of life, and all living things ultimately return to the earth. He emphasizes the consoling and unifying aspects of death, encouraging readers to view it as a peaceful and harmonious process. "Thanatopsis" reflects the Romantic literary movement's appreciation for nature and its role in shaping human perspectives. Bryant's eloquent language and profound reflections on mortality contribute to the enduring appeal of the poem.

With a powerful introduction by Ross Gay and a moving afterword by Sidney Clifton, this special anniversary edition of The Book of Light offers new meditations and insights on one of the most beloved voices of the 20th century. Though The Book of Light opens with thirty-nine names for light, we soon learn the most meaningful name is Lucille—daughter, mother, proud Black woman. Known for her ability to convey multitudes in few words, Clifton writes into the shadows—her father’s violations, a Black neighborhood bombed, death, loss—all while illuminating the full spectrum of human emotion: grief and celebration, anger and joy, empowerment and so much grace. A meeting place of myth and the Divine, The Book of Light exists “between starshine and clay” as Clifton’s personas allow us to bear the world’s weight with Atlas and witness conversations between Lucifer and God. While names and dates mark this text as a social commentary responding to her time, it is haunting how easily this collection serves as a political palimpsest of today. We leave these poems inspired—Clifton shows us Superman is not our hero. Our hero is the Black female narrator who decides to live. And what a life she creates! “Won’t you celebrate with me?”

Of all the woman warriors in myth and legend, few are more storied than Boudicca, the fierce, redheaded queen who, in the first century A.C.E. led the most celebrated Celtic rebellion in history. But here, for the first time, Jan Surasky imagines Boudicca's enthralling story of bravery and triumph from the Celtic point of view. In her extensively researched, vividly told novel, Boudicca bursts to life as never before in all her bold passion, brazen courage and heroic glory. After a carefree childhood, Boudicca is wed in a politically matched marriage to a much older king. Then, her world turns dark. Romans invade, breaking a pact that would have saved her tribe from doom, wreaking havoc, taking slaves, publicly humiliating Boudicca, and assaulting her two young daughters. Betrayed and outraged, she leads thousands of warriors into an epic battle to avenge her daughters and rid her beloved island of Roman tyranny.Grand in scope and intimate in detail, Rage Against the Dying Light resonates with the queen's indomitable spirit. Thanks to Jan Surasky's beautifully written novel, Boudicca takes her place alongside no lesser woman warrior than Joan of Arc herself.
