Описание: Poetry. Chelsea Woodard's VELLUM, a finalist for the 2013 Able Muse Book Award, propels the reader along new paths of discovery in the quotidian as in the mythical. Its scope is far-ranging: a flower press received as a gift in childhood, Tarot reading with a favorite aunt, unexpected reflections at a tattoo parlor, reminiscing about an old flame, the discovery of rare volumes at the local library, or auctioning off old toys on eBay. Woodward's insights and sensibilities in the visual and performing arts are deftly realized in fine or broad strokes--as in Copp lia, The Painter and the Color-blind, Degas's Nudes, or as in Still Life, which muses that It's difficult/ to give back life/ to what's been cut off from the living. Stories and scenes represented in popular artwork are reimagined in ekphrastics such as Self Portrait as the Allegory of Painting. With excursions into the surreal, myth is made, lived or remade, as in Philomela, Pegasus and The Feral Child. This is an exquisite debut collection that rewards the mind and senses with its formal impetus and deft musicality, its precise and lively language, its emotional compass.
In her stunning first collection, VELLUM, Chelsea Woodard offers us poems whose lucidity of attention grounds an imaginative realism where narrative becomes speculation, witness becomes mystery, and the body a space where desire and dread complicate compassion's summons to the social order. The honed music here thus reveals a deeper vulnerability. Such is its gift, the way in which poems might be rooted to the difficulty and heartbreak of the physical and yet apart, 'their keel and gristle finally set/ into some deathless, disembodied flight.' An astonishing book.--Bruce Bond
In addition to her emotional maturity, part of what makes these poems memorable is Woodard's obvious mastery of language, her flawless sentences, the surprising way those sentences function and 'mean' within the lines, the lines within the forms.--Claudia Emerson, from the Foreword
Not the least of the attractions of this gifted young poet's first book is the exquisite, searing precision of her language--the obsessively exact diction; the tropes that map with such stunning accuracy the emotional contours of her narratives; the gestural, almost tactile quality of her syntax--all of these talents focused sharply on what Howard Nemerov said was the singular, most difficult achievement of poetry: 'getting something right in language.' I predict for Chelsea Woodard a long and enviable career.--B.H. Fairchild
The untold story of a heroic band of Caribbean pirates whose defiance of imperial rule inspired revolt in colonial outposts across the world
In the early eighteenth century, the Pirate Republic was home to some of the great pirate captains, including Blackbeard, "Black Sam" Bellamy, and Charles Vane. Along with their fellow pirates--former sailors, indentured servants, and runaway slaves--this "Flying Gang" established a crude but distinctive democracy in the Bahamas, carving out their own zone of freedom in which servants were free, blacks could be equal citizens, and leaders were chosen or deposed by a vote. They cut off trade routes, sacked slave ships, and severed Europe from its New World empires, and for a brief, glorious period the Republic was a success.
