Called By Distances - Poems

de Biljana D. Obradovic

~~13,18€~~ 11,86€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 In Called by Distances, Biljana D. Obradovic looks back at a life that includes surviving the demise of her native country of Yugoslavia, the loss of her parents in the same year, and displacement from Hurricane Katrina. Her poetry encompasses loves and deaths, international travels and adjustments to American culture, often accompanied by a feeling of not belonging anywhere. What emerges from these richly evocative poems is a portrait of an artist who resists the call to assimilate, and instead carves her own unique path, continuing to dream.

Appalachian Sea - Poems

de Steve Scafidi

~~13,18€~~ 11,86€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Steve Scafidi’s The Appalachian Sea explores the eponymous place of mountains and story, of rivers and magic, as well as of mortality, where people work and live and die. What began as an homage to the American painter Miles Cleveland Goodwin became a celebration of the spectral qualities of place and home. The artist’s gothic imagery of haints and dark orchards haunts the book, wherein the Shenandoah wends, old farmers toil, and ghosts wander a land where change comes on like a flood. There is no escape from this spilling river, the "Appalachian sea," yet for a while we get by and survive. These poems sing of the temporary persistence that makes what surrounds us beloved and strange.
