Just Saying

Rae Armantrout

Just Saying

In Just Saying, improbable and even untenable speakers are briefly constituted—only to disappear. The result is part carnival, part nightmare. A television pundit's rhetoric segues into an unusual succulent with writhing maroon tongues. When the world suddenly becomes legible, is that revelation or psychosis? In this book, the voice of the Lord and/or the voice of the security state can come from anyplace. The problem of identity becomes acute. The poems in Just Saying may...

Erasures

Donald Revell

Erasures

"When history proves useless and consensus chimerical," Donald Revell has written, «the poet's necessity is invention, and this does a lot to explain our century's preference for revision over mimesis.» For Revell, The disruptions of this century have destroyed old illusions of historical continuity: «The consolations of history are furtive,/ then fugitive, then forgotten.» Invoking such contemporary events as the collapse of communism and the end of the Cold War, he...

Beautiful Shirt

Beautiful Shirt

The world that Donald Revell ponders in these poems replete with contrarieties. The same verbal playfulness and prophetic lyricism that made Revell a 1992 Guggenheim Fellow in Poetry and a winner of National Poetry Series, Pushcart, and PEN Center USA West awards are in full force in Beautiful Shirt. Here he traverses the rocky terrain of innocence, memory, disillusion, and salvation in a voice at once haunted and elliptical: «This is the world as I have known it./ It has a soft...

Рай: Потерянный рай. Возвращенный рай

«Потерянный рай» – гениальная поэма Мильтона, благодаря которой он стал одним из известнейших английских поэтов своего времени. Поэма основана на библейском сюжете падения человека и изгнания его из Рая. Как писал Мильтон в Книге Первой, его цель состояла в том, чтобы оправдать путь Бога людям (в оригинале «justify the ways of God to men»). «Возвращенный рай» является продолжением «Потерянного рая». Поэма повествует об искушении Иисуса Христа Сатаной во время пребывания в пустыне. «Потерянный...

There Are Three

Donald Revell

There Are Three

Believing and espousing an American tradition alive in the testimony of Anne Hutchinson, in the prose-poetry of Thoreau, and in the music of Ives, Donald Revell's new poems seek moments of harmony between language and silence. The death of the poet's father and almost concurrent birth of his son form the emotional underpinnings of this meditation on faith. «Every morning, beginning in childhood, / the music of variation sustains / the equal loneliness of every soul.»...

The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson (Series First through Third)

Emily Dickinson (1830-1886), the reclusive and intensely private poet saw only a few of her poems (she wrote well over a thousand) published during her life. After discovering a trove of manuscripts left in a wooden box, Dickinson's sister Lavinia fortunately chose to disobey Emily's wishes for her work to be burned after death. With the help of Amherst professors, Lavinia brought her sister's gifted verse into print. It is here, in «The Collected Poems of Emily Dickinson», that...

Silence in the Snowy Fields

Robert Bly

Silence in the Snowy Fields

The poems of Robert Bly are rooted deep in the earth. Snow and sunshine, barns and cornfields and cars on the empty nighttime roads, abandoned Minnesota lakes and the mood of America now—these are his materials. He sees and talks clearly: he uses no rhetoric nor mannered striving for effect, but instead the simple statement that in nine lines can embody a mood, reveal a profound truth, illuminate in an important way the inward and hidden life. This is a poet of the modern world,...

As National Poetry Month was just last April, it’s only fitting that we celebrate poetry this July.

In this new poetry ePub, we present two poets writing about Emily Dickinson, Stephen Burt’s groundbreaking essay on...

The Brontë Sisters

Poems of the Bronte Sisters

Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë were successful poets and novelists in their own right; however, their careers began with several collaborative works of stories and poetry. They first wrote under male pseudonyms as they feared retribution by the male-dominated literary world if they published works under their own names. They attracted attention immediately, and soon after found success with works like Charlotte's «Jane Eyre» and Emily's «Wuthering Heights». This collection of poetry...

The Love Poems of John Donne

Born in 1572 in London England, John Donne was an English Jacobean poet of exceptional skill, whose poetry was known for its vibrancy of language and inventiveness of metaphor.

The Complete Poems of Emily Bronte

Emily Brontë (1818-1848), of the well-known Brontë family, is best known for her novel «Wuthering Heights», which has been deemed a classic of English literature. She wrote two complete notebooks of poetry by 1844, which were soon discovered by her sister, Charlotte. At Charlotte's urging, Emily began publishing the poems in collaborative works with her two sisters under the pseudonyms Acton, Ellis and Currer Bell. Emily's poems were praised by critics for their power and intellect,...

The Lifetime Between

The Lifetime Between

Ever written a letter you never sent? Words you've never said but wanted to? That's what you're about to read in The Lifetime Between. Every word, every page, is a note, a letter, a thought to someone specific—a friend, a lover, an ex-lover, a family member, the author herself. Words left unsaid. Words held back in fear. Words that didn't come until it was too late. Words of hurt, of anger, of love, of hope, of strength. Words of truth—which sometimes...

Paradise Lost

Paradise Lost

Milton's «Paradise Lost» is considered to be one of the most classic epic poems ever written. It is a retelling of the biblical story of the Genesis of man, of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, and of how Eve when tempted by Satan disobeyed God and ate from the tree of knowledge. Written in 1667 by the English Poet John Milton, «Paradise Lost» is a poetic and intriguing interpretation of ancient biblical legend.

Orlando Furioso (Volume II, Cantos 25-46)

Ludovico Ariosto (1474-1533) was the oldest of 10 children being the successor to the patriarchal position of his family. From his earliest years, Ludovico was interested in poetry, but was obliged by his father, a commander of the Reggio Emilia citadel, to study law. In 1517, he served under the cardinal's brother, Alfonso, duke of Ferrara, and it was then that he began writing his masterpiece and romance epic «Orlando Furioso». The earliest version appeared in 1516 but was not published...

The Complete Poems

Born in 1572 in London England, John Donne is one of the most important and influential of all English poets. The child of Catholic parents at a time when Catholicism was illegal in England, Donne spent much of his life wrestling with his beliefs and trying to find his place in the world. While now regarded as one of the most famous English metaphysical poets and one of exceptional skill and brilliance, Donne published very little poetry during his own lifetime and was not a professional writer....

Paradise Lost

Milton's great 17th-century epic draws upon Bible stories and classical mythology to explore the meaning of existence, as understood by people of the Western world. Its roots lie in the Genesis account of the world's creation and the first humans; its focus is a poetic interpretation «Of Man's first disobedience, and the fruit / Of that forbidden tree whose mortal taste / Brought death into the world, and all our woe / With loss of Eden.»In sublime poetry of extraordinary beauty,...
