The Zuni Mountains have over 360,000 acres of pristine wilderness. The volcanic area of the El Malpais National Monument is riddled with great, black lava flows, caves, and lava tubes. The El Morro National Monument has writings from ancient peoples flowing backward into time, early Spanish explorers, and later American explorers near a precious pool of deep water hidden beneath towering cliffs. Throughout Plateaus, mesas. cliffs, canyons, and small mountain peaks is the pygmy forest of piсon and juniper trees interspersed with pines and towering Ponderosa pines with their red bark and straight trunks. The continental divide rises and falls as it winds its way north to the great Rocky Mountains. A polygot of peoples, Zuni, Pueblo, Navajo, Spanish, and the various ethnicities of Anglos make the Zuni Mountains home.
Not all of the poems in this anthology are about the Zuni Mountains. The poets come from different places and different cultures, but the Zuni Mountains are in all the poems in this volume. Some of the poems capture the beauty of New Mexico sunlight that enlightens the human spirit in a way that sunlight in other places does not. Some are caught up by the mourning, laughter, sadness, comedy, tragedy, and endless stories that arise out of individuals living individual lives.
Zuni Mountain country is not always an easy country. The trails through ancient volcanic flows frozen into black stone can challenge the most experienced hiker. You can be walking along a ridge and suddenly become aware that a mountain lion is watching you from a sandstone outcropping above your head. But it is a beautiful, wild place where horses can still find grass in green summer meadows and elk and antelope grace Mother Earth with the fluidity of movement and magnificence of the elk's rack of horns.
The poetry in this volume arises from the Zuni Mountains, and, as such, is as dynamic, interesting, and beautiful as the country from which it comes.

In a treasure-filled, decaying mansion in Little Rock, Arkansas, in the 1950s, Baldwin Howell, her daughter Eulalia and her granddaughter Shelby have been keeping secrets and sorrows for years, all related to the mysterious disappearance of Shelby's father when she was a child. After he went missing, Shelby had been stripped of his name, Korzeniowski, when her formidable grandmother took her to the courthouse to have it legally erased. But Shelby has never given up her desire to know why her dashing, daring Polish pilot father had flown away and vanished. Now 21 and recently crowned Miss Little Rock, Shelby leaves for New York City, ostensibly to find fame as an actress but secretly planning to search for her father. So begins a journey of self-discovery--emotional, intellectual, and sexual--as Shelby tests the boundaries of southern expectations and racial taboos. Having learned more than she bargained for, family tragedy calls her back to Little Rock, just as the city is erupting over the forced integration of the high school. Kidnapping Elephants is a riveting, romantic family saga set in a momentous time in the history of the South. Grappling with themes of choosing the right person to forgive and the right person to love, the novel unfolds during the struggle for civil rights, a time when racial biases are both easing up and tightening down, creating a cauldron of tension, cruelty, and violence. It is also a powerful story of unconscious racism giving way to enlightened humanism--and of love conquering all.

Описание: Margaret Laurence Writes Africa and Canada is the first book to examine how Laurence addresses decolonization and nation building in 1950s Somalia and Ghana, and 1960s and 1970s English Canada.Focusing on Laurence's published works as well as her unpublished letters not yet discussed by critics, the book articulates how Laurence and her characters are poised between African colonies of occupation during decolonization and the settler-colony of English Canada during the implementation of Canadian multiculturalism. Laurence's Canadian characters are often divided subjects who are not quite members of their ancestral ""imperial"" cultures, yet also not truly ""native"" to their nation. Margaret Laurence Writes Africa and Canada shows how Laurence and her characters negotiate complex tensions between ""self"" and ""nation,"" and argues that Laurence's African and Canadian writing demonstrates a divided Canadian subject who holds significant implications for both the individual and the country of Canada.Bringing together Laurence's writing about Africa and Canada, Davis offers a unique contribution to the study of Canadian literature. The book is an original interpretation of Laurence's work and reveals how she displaces the simple notion that Canada is a sum total of different cultures and conceives Canada as a mosaic that is in flux and constituted through continually changing social relations.
