Gold
ISBN: 9781498216517 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Description: Barbara Crooker's new book Gold focuses on one of the most profound life-altering experiences possible: losing one's mother. This collection is an elegy, not just to the speaker's mother, but to a lost Eden that cannot be reclaimed. Beginning with a series of lyrics set in autumn, the poems become more narrative, recounting the long illness of Crooker's mother, her death, and the profound journey along the shores of grief. Throughout, Crooker is aware of the complexity and strength of the mother/daughter relationship and the chasm that this loss opens. The book includes other...

Of Crooker's work, William Matthews has written, "Barbara Crooker's poems have been written with a deft touch and with that affection for their textures and pacings that we're accustomed to call, a little dryly, 'technical skill.' It's a form of love, actually, and since she's expended it on her poems, we can, too." Janet McCann, writing in the Foreword, says, "The poems in this collection come mostly from...

ISBN: 9781936196005 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. "Rarely has a book of poems been as aptly titled as Barbara Crooker's MORE. Propelled by her hunger for beauty and language, she flies in low over human experience, noticing every gesture, every flavor, every nuance of color and light. Whether she is pondering a spill of salt or stepping into a painting by Hopper, Crooker never for one second lets us forget what it is to be alive and how many ways we have been given to express our gratitude for this simple fact. 'How did all this loveliness / spring from the dark?' she asks in one poem. I don't know the answer, but by the timeI finished...

Small Rain
ISBN: 9780944048634 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Barbara Crooker's sixth collection of poetry, Small Rain, is an exploration of the wheel of the year, the seasons that roll in a continuous circle and yet move inexorably forward. Here, gorgeous lyric poems praise poppies, mockingbirds, nectarines, mulch and compost, yet loss (stillbirth, cancer, emphysema), with its crow-black wings, is also always present. In poems that narrow in on the particular ("a cardinal twangs his notes of cheer; he has no truck with irony and post- / modernism"), poems that focus on aging and the body ("how many springs are left on my ticket?"), poems that open out...

Les Fauves
ISBN: 9781936196692 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 82 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Poetry. Art. Women's Studies. LES FAUVES is, as the title suggests, a collection of ekphrastic poetry, meditations on paintings from the Fauve and Post-Impressionist movements. But it also contains poetry's equivalent to Fauvism, poems that take a walk on the wild side. There are language experiment poems, poems of word play, poems in form both usual (end rhymes, sonnets, ghazals) and unusual (abecedaries, traditional, embedded, and double helix), palindromes, anagrams, and word scrambles. Crazy word salad poems. Crooker's subjects range widely, from living and working in a small village in...
