Bone & Juice
ISBN: 9780810151161 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Adrian C. Louis's largely autobiographical verse is characterized by a bluntness born of self-irony and self-criticism. He attacks his subjects with an emotional engagement that is both tender and honest. Within the context of fallen ideals and lost spirituality among Native Americans, he composes elegies for his mentally disabled wife and describes scenes from Cowturdville, his name for the town near a reservation where he lived. Mesmerizing the reader with the rhythm of his lively lines, Louis demonstrates a stylistic strength that is both accessible and demanding. His candid portrayals of...

Logorrhea
ISBN: 9780810151789 / Angielski / Miękka / 2006 / 120 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Finalist, 2007Los Angeles Times Book Prize in Poetry
In a torrent of rage, love, and irony, Adrian C. Louis explodes all the myths and hypocrisy of Middle America in the twenty-first century. This is how Walt Whitman or Allen Ginsburg might have written about our post-9/11 world--where the realities of poverty on Indian reservations and the plight of Hurricane Katrina victims come in second place to the vagaries of Homeland Security. For Louis, both he and our nation face an uncertain future. Like many of us he is trapped in a surreal void of the present, where he is faced with middle age...

Louis writes poems with the rough-edged wit and heart-wrenching sincerity that make him one of the seminal voices in contemporary American poetry.

Ceremonies of the Damned: Poems
ISBN: 9780874173024 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The world of acclaimed Native American poet Adrian Louis is harsh and full of pain the blizzard-blasted plains and dusty towns of the northern Midwest, the hopeless barrenness of the Reservation, and a bleak interior world of loss, illness, and despair. Louis s poems bring us to a place where ghosts hitchhike and the traditional pow-wow becomes an affirmation of bitter survival, where the lives of the young end too often in acts of meaningless self-destruction, and where his own existence becomes a daily battle with his cherished wife s decline into the dementia of Alzheimer s disease. Louis...

In "Archaeology", Louis writes about the Anglo invasion of Indian Country and its loss of Native traditions, language, and history. In "Savage Sunsets", he writes candidly about his wife's battle with Alzheimers and how the disease steals away their waning days together. As the...

Ancient Acid Flashes Back: Poems
ISBN: 9780874173529 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 71 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ancient Acid Flashes Backis the true story of one who was there --and remembers-- through the cloying marijuana haze, around the jagged edges of L.A. cross tops and crystal cranks, on wild windowpane trips, in the sweetness and sweat of tangled young bodies, in the stench of stale vomit and fresh garbage, in the raucous laughter of desperation and fear. In this remarkable collection of poems, Adrian Louis, a member of the Paiute tribe, beams us back to the Haight during the Summer of Love and beyond on an inimitable tour of the wild side of youth, freedom, and possibility."
