The Government of Nature
ISBN: 9780822962311 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) This is the second volume of a trilogy (the first was The Plum Flower Dance) in which Weaver analyzes his life, striving to become the ideal poet. In The Government of Nature, Afaa Michael Weaver explores the trauma of his childhood--including sexual abuse--using a "cartography and thematic structure drawn from Chinese spiritualism." Weaver is a practitioner of Daoism, and this collection deals directly with the abuse in the context of Daoist renderings of nature as metaphor for the human body.

A Hard Summation
ISBN: 9781941604007 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 44 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) A HARD SUMMATION is a suite of 13 new poems by Afaa Michael Weaver, covering the history of African Americans from the Middle Passage to Now. Like a rite of passage, struggle has been unyielding and synonymous with the black experience in America. In this rich compilation, Weaver unearths a genealogical deficit that permeates through generations. But in this collection, you won't hear the poems cry foul or attempt to appease friend or offend foe. Its intention is hardly to be conclusive. When you add it all up, A HARD SUMMATION offers us an opportunity to listen, celebrate, commemorate, and...

Spirit Boxing
ISBN: 9780822964582 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) In Spirit Boxing, Weaver revisits his working class core. The veteran of fifteen years as a factory worker in his native Baltimore, he mines his own experience to build a wellspring of craft in poems that extend from his life to the lives that inhabit the whole landscape of the American working class. He writes with an intimacy that is unique in American poetry, and echoes previous comparisons of his oeuvre to that of Walt Whitman. The singularity of his voice resonates here through the prism of his realization of self through a lifelong project of the integration of American and...
