Описание: Spaces are not exterior to bodies. They influence and affect the way bodies exist in the world. A quarry is an unnatural place within a natural territory. At any moment, it can be abandoned. A body is not separate from the spaces it inhabits. They exist together, in a mutual state of interrelation and instability. Quarry relays a year in the life of a body in transition as it changes with other bodies; human, animal, and mineral. It examines queer social spaces and contested natural spaces, asking how they affect each other. Using evocative metaphor and refreshing language, these poems make bodily experience new. Tanis Franco eschews traditional narratives of the queer and transgender body, bringing nuanced ideas to an ongoing literary and philosophical conversation. Their strong sense of location and landscape is interwoven with sensual language and impeccable craft, creating a unique and distinctive voice.

Set along the U.S.-Mexico border, Dusk & Dust introduces the voice of a "boy straddled on the valley of two geographies." With a keen eye, gentle humor, and great empathy, Esteban Rodr guez's debut collection explores the lives of the generations who have made their homes in a landscape too often neglected and forgotten. Like the region they portray--relentless, unsympathetic, singed with uncertainty--these poems are marked with a visceral beauty. The aroma of cattle mingles with steaming tamales, and carnival organs play behind telenovelas in this richly conjured and mercurial world. Through the eyes of his luchador mask, with a foot planted firmly on either side of the fence, the young speaker grapples with a host of cultural and familial expectations, a tenuous grasp on his family's language, and his own burgeoning identity. Funny and poignant, Dusk & Dust lays out a labyrinth of cultural expectations, and, with a voice as clear as it is unique, illuminates a world that seeks to be remembered and lived.
LA PULGA
Sunday morning strolls along the frontage road like a censer-swinging priest, scrapes its sunlight against the corroded chain-link fence, between the lines of traffic overflowing from the entrance, where I already taste the scent of wet cilantro, grilled onions, mixed meat, and eggs sizzled in a haze of dust-shuffled heat; in a blanket of black exhaust crawling across the pot-hole-riddled parking lot, and through the rows of sunburned cars nudging each other like buzzards on a corpse they've yet to eat. I endure my grandfather's crooked parking, the constant honking, the backseat acoustics of thin music sprinkled in the air, those far-off plastic speakers blaring songs with unpredictable trumpets, and Spanish gritos slapped against my English-only ears....

As hinted in the title, Dusk & Dawn refers to the night, which is the most thought-provoking and emotion-evoking period of the day. Dusk highlights the approaching darkness of despair and chaos of both the heart and the mind; while Dawn gives way to a new day, promising hope.
This book is a collection of emotions, thoughts and feelings knitted together to give words to the turmoil of the heart and its constant battle of self-assurance in hope of finding happiness and peace. The book is a journey of self-discovery, from struggling through heartbreak, self-hate and inferiority complexes to finally accepting one's flaws, understanding one's self-worth and striving to be a better version of self.

Автор: Beachy-Quick Dan Название: Variations on Dawn and Dusk ISBN: 1632430703 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781632430700 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 12830.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Acting as poetic records of light, the poems in Variations on Dawn and Dusk follow the sun as it warms, cools, colors, and shifts the space of Robert Irwin's untitled (dawn to dusk) in the desert of Marfa, TX. Built on the footprint of the town's old hospital, Irwin's permanent installation is a remarkable structure with walls, windows, and screens that both capture and are taken over by the sun's changing light. Through this deeply engaged ekphrasis, Dan Beachy-Quick uses language to participate in the overpowering elegance of Irwin's structure. The poet's fervent observations lead us in cycles of meditation, moving with the light that slides through the surfaces of the installation. Here, the very foundation of our vision--light--forms the vocabulary from which these poems are built. Building from Irwin's use of rhythm and structure, the poems in this collection are constructed with an architectural framework. Rhythmic procedures inversely link the first and last words of the first and last lines of each poem and tie the number of lines to the number of syllables in the first line. These structures form a pattern, a thoughtful consistency through which we are invited to move and meditate with each variation of light.

This book is a journey within myself to uncover the wondrous being that I am to be, a colliding of dark versus light, dawn versus dusk, day versus night.
Hmm... You may be wondering why this is important. Why is it necessary, and how is it even possible? I was formed in a state of darkness, but within nine months I made my way to the light. I came into this earth as an untouched shape of energy, pure and encased with love. Over a period of time, the layers of the world encased me and added weight to a weightless spirit. . . .
I began my search for who I am without the labels and the stereotypes. The world dictated who I was supposed to be: an inauthentic clone of my real self which stood before me. Slowly I began to realize that the real me, the real Dawn, is encased with every comment, every judgment! Each
and every word that has been spoken to me in a positive, negative, loving, or judgmental kind of way has stuck to me like glue and begun to create layers within the light and dark dimension deep within. It would seem that maybe I had to create those layers to live within the world. But did I?
Did I have to rebuke shame, fear, judgment, or any other negativity? How did that alter my perception of life or my judgment of others who are the same as me living, breathing human beings on this earth whose main purpose is to enjoy and let the spirit take over to express, seek, and embrace their purpose? Many times I have posted on social media, "Live on purpose with purpose." That is a powerful statement to me and a favorite of mine for sure. You cannot live by default or by accident. There is no right or wrong, good or bad. It is a journey, an experience . . . your
life!
As I have traveled many roads along this journey, I have been made aware that the very same things that are thrust in my world are things that were meant to be since my arrival into the world.
There is a judgmental piece of us all due to fear, ego, and the stresses of the world. How do I become whole? It seems to me that I have been living half of my true self the whole time, and now I am on a journey through conscious thoughts and words to be whole!
This is my contribution to the world: words that are channeled through me for myself and for you to embrace! You can utilize them in your life and share them with others, as we are all connected.
Fusing the dual parts of life will bring you to an awakening of your true self. It will allow you to become one within the very being you are that connects us all.

Rhina P. Espaillat, judge of the 2014 Andr?s Montoya Poetry Prize, describes Furious Dusk, David Campos’s winning collection, as "a work whose five parts trace a son’s efforts—only partially successful—to fulfill his father’s expectations and—perhaps even more difficult—understand those expectations enough to forgive them.” The poet's reflections are catalyzed by learning of his father’s impending death, which, in turn, forces him to examine his father’s expectations against his own evolving concept of what it means to be a man.
The poems' speaker sifts through his past to find the speckles of memory that highlight the pressures to fit the mold of masculinity forged both by the Mexican culture of his father and the American culture he inhabits. The problematic norms of both rip the speaker in two directions as he recounts his father’s severe parenting, as he explores the inability to father a child, as he witnesses human suffering, as he overeats and confronts the effects on his body, and, finally, as he realizes what it means to transcend these expectations. The speaker’s epiphany frees him to reject masculine stereotypes and allows him to see himself simply as a human being. That realization, in turn, enables the speaker to see his father not only as “father,” “husband,” and “man,” but as a citizen of Earth.
Through Campos’s bold imagery and accessible language and themes, he memorably adds to the continuing conversation of the effects of cultural expectations on the children of immigrant parents.

Описание: Poetry. Bilingual Edition. Translated from English into Italian by Luigi Bonaffini. Carla Panciera's NO DAY, NO DUSK, NO LOVE has everything: every poem is consistently excellent. These are mostly lyrics, deceptively simple poems rooted in a strong sense of place: rivers, oceans, ponds, farms and in an equally strong sense of the importance of human connections and the aching/longing when they are lost. These are poems that beautifully matter and deserve reading again and again.--Patricia Fargnoli
